Vacuum Heritage
Single Stage Ejector Systems
Single stage steam jet ejectors, referred to as Z-Stage systems, are engineered to handle large process loads containing both condensable and non-condensable gases, as well as small amounts of solids or liquids. When configured to discharge to atmospheric pressure, they generate a vacuum level of 75 mm HgA (75 Torr) and up.
With no moving parts, single stage ejectors are straightforward to operate and maintain, making them a reliable, low-complexity choice for applications where a moderate vacuum level is sufficient.
- Handles large condensable and non-condensable process loads
- Capable of processing small amounts of solids or liquids
- No moving parts, minimal maintenance requirements
- Vacuum level: 75 mm HgA (75 Torr) and up
Our engineering team can evaluate your process load and vacuum requirement to size the right configuration.
Multistage Ejector Systems
Intercondensers positioned between the 4th/5th and 5th/6th stage jets reduce steam consumption by knocking out condensables from the process stream. An aftercondenser can be added to minimize condensables from the discharge vapor stream.
Hybrid System Advantages
- Two-stage systems: 10 mm HgA (10 Torr) and up
- Multi-stage condensing: 0.01 mm HgA with up to 6 stages
- Intercondensers reduce steam consumption between stages
- Aftercondenser option minimizes discharge vapor condensables
Hybrid Systems (Ejector + LRVP)
The key advantage of hybrid systems is their compact, modular footprint and low-level on-grade installation, which eliminates the need for a barometric leg. This makes them well suited for facilities where vertical space or steam availability is limited. The trade-off is that the LRVP requires electricity, cooling water, and has mechanical seals and bearings that require periodic maintenance.
- Significantly reduced steam consumption vs. all-ejector systems
- Compact modular package, low level on-grade installation
- No barometric leg required
- Ideal where steam availability or vertical space is limited
Our engineers can evaluate your steam availability, space constraints, and vacuum requirements to confirm if a hybrid system fits.
Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump Systems
Liquid Ring Vacuum Pump (LRVP) systems provide robust, continuous vacuum generation using a rotating liquid ring to compress process gases. They are particularly well suited for wet, condensable, or particulate-laden gas streams where other vacuum technologies may struggle, handling process conditions that can be difficult for dry-running equipment.
Artisan offers LRVP systems in both single stage and multi stage configurations, with the appropriate selection based on the vacuum level and process load required. LRVP systems require electricity and a small amount of sealing liquid, typically water, for continuous operation.
- Single stage and multi stage configurations available
- Well suited for wet, condensable, and particulate-laden streams
- Reliable continuous vacuum generation
- Can serve as the final stage in a hybrid ejector system
Our engineering team can evaluate your process conditions and recommend the right LRVP configuration for your application.
