Electric vacuum pumps are commonly used in hospitals for medical suction systems, dental applications, and laboratory environments. They’re also suited for industrial uses like packaging, drying, and vacuum forming.
Piston vacuum pumps are ideal for lower volume, intermittent use, while screw-type pumps are designed for continuous operation with higher efficiency and quieter performance. Airpower supplies both types to suit different application needs.
Yes. Many of Airpower’s vacuum pumps are available in both single-phase and three-phase options. This makes them suitable for homes, clinics, and industrial settings with varied power supply availability.
Certain models include optional or built-in features such as low oil level switches, automatic switch-over, alarms, and lead-lag control systems to ensure safety and reliability in critical environments like hospitals.
