Leybold Turbovac 340M Magnetic Bearing Turbomolecular Pump

The Leybold Turbovac 340M is a high-performance, magnetically levitated turbomolecular pump engineered for pristine, hydrocarbon-free high and ultra-high vacuum applications. By utilizing a fully active magnetic bearing suspension system, the 340M eliminates physical contact points entirely. This design bypasses the routine maintenance, bearing wear, and oil/grease contamination risks typical of mechanical-bearing pumps.

This unit is ideal for highly vibration-sensitive R&D installations, mass spectrometry, electron microscopy, and semiconductor metrology systems requiring silent, ultra-clean operation.

• Active Magnetic Bearing System: 5-axis active levitation guarantees zero contact friction, eliminating the need for oil or grease lubrication.

• Hydrocarbon-Free Vacuum: Ideal for strict, contamination-free UHV applications.

• Ultra-Low Vibration & Noise: Virtually non-existent mechanical noise or vibration harmonics, maximizing sensitivity for analytical equipment.

• Robust Rotor Design: High tolerance against mechanical impacts and sudden atmospheric shock venting.

• Flexible Mounting: Operates reliably in any physical mounting orientation.
