Many applications of Vacuum Pump consist of a series of all the above types of pumps to transport gases to where they need to be most efficiently and effectively. When exposed to high temperatures, other materials that are used in the construction of the pumps can give off gases that interfere with the whole mechanism, therefore they have to be monitored very carefully.
This is sometimes overcome by all the necessary components being baked at very high temperatures to ensure there are no more gases that could possibly leak.
High pressure vacuums are much more complex to arrange and often have to be custom built for each individual job. Usually constructed of stainless steel and baked under Vacuum Pump to stave off unwanted gasses.
There are many excellent uses for these types of pumps including medical processes such as radiotherapy, radiosurgery and radiopharmacy. Ophthalmic applications, glass coating, analytical instruments, the production of electric lamps, freeze drying and even sewage systems all use Vacuum Pump processes. They are also used frequently in engineering and motor engines.
