CIRCULATION PUMP
Needed to pressurize noble gases, in a closed loop, for circulation.
Specification/Requirements:
- Output pressures anywhere between 2 and 15 bar
- This requirement can be reduced with a regulator: static output pressure at 15bar would suffice.
- Input pressure can be adjusted so that it’s either the same as the output or anything lower down to 1bar (so closed loop or compression is fine)
- This requirement can also be adjusted with a regulator: static input pressure around 1bar is feasible.
Additional Requirements and Information:
- Minimal leak rate: Helium leak tested with a leak rate </= 1 x 10-5 mbar l/s.
- Will be run continuously for weeks and months at a time
- Gases will all be non-exothermic noble gases of argon, xenon, and mixtures of the two. Ideally the pump should be capable of running 15 bar pure xenon as well as pure argon.
- Flow rate between 50 and 200 SLPM necessary for both gasses and mixtures
