Pfeiffer Vacuum TPH 170 Turbomolecular Pump

The Pfeiffer Vacuum TPH 170 (P/N: PM P01 210 / PMP01210A) is a highly dependable, classic-era high-vacuum turbomolecular pump. Offering a consistent pumping speed of 170 L/s for Nitrogen, this workhorse pump is a favorite among university physics departments, custom R&D vacuum chambers, mass spectrometry groups, and surface science labs due to its legendary reliability and simple mechanical design.

This model features a standard mechanical bearing arrangement optimized for high-speed stability and long service life under clean laboratory conditions. Utilizing water cooling as its standard default configuration, it can also be easily converted to air/fan cooling depending on the ambient constraints of your research layout. The TPH 170 uses a DN 100 ISO-K inlet flange, making it incredibly straightforward to adapt to a wide array of experimental high-vacuum chambers.

Key Features

• Consistent 170 L/s Throughput: Delivers robust, linear pumping speed performance ideal for high-vacuum generation and residual gas analysis (RGA).

• DN 100 ISO-K Connection: Universal claw-clamp inlet style ensures simple integration and sealing against standard industrial or custom vacuum manifolds.

• Thermal Protection Overrides: Equipped with internal temperature sensors to automatically guard the rotor array against overheating during continuous heavy gas-load cycles.

• Flexible Cooling Profiles: Standard water-cooled design can easily accept standard external fan assemblies for plug-and-play operation on mobile laboratory carts.
