Welch 2042 Ultra DryFast 2-Head Chemical Duty Diaphragm Pump

Oil-Free Performance with Advanced Vapor Management

The Welch 2042 DryFast PTFE Diaphragm Vacuum Pump delivers precise vacuum control for organic evaporations with exclusive Advanced Vapor Management (AVM) technology. This oil-free, portable, chemical-resistant pump features a 2-head diaphragm design that simplifies maintenance while providing reliable performance with 1.2 CFM (40 L/min) flow rate and adjustable vacuum down to 2 Torr. The economical DryFast system is perfect for demanding laboratory applications requiring clean operation without the complications of oil-based systems. Working completely without oil offers significant advantages including reduced maintenance that saves time and money, a dry vacuum environment for cleaner workplaces, and uncontaminated pumping of gases resulting in cleaner samples with no risk of oil back-streaming.

Low Cost of Ownership with Maximum Reliability

Clean operation, low cost of ownership, and highest reliability make the Welch 2042 DryFast an ideal choice for laboratory and industrial applications. The PTFE construction provides exceptional chemical resistance for handling aggressive vapors and corrosive gases commonly encountered in rotary evaporation and distillation processes. The 2-head diaphragm design ensures consistent performance while minimizing maintenance requirements compared to traditional oil-sealed pumps, creating a cleaner workplace environment and protecting sample integrity. This portable system allows flexible placement and easy relocation as laboratory needs change. Each pump includes complimentary 9.5mm white premium food-grade silicone vacuum tubing ($19.99 value), providing everything needed for immediate operation in demanding chemical duty applications.

Features:

  • Reliable Protection: Covered by a 1-Year Warranty for peace of mind.
  • Precision Vacuum Control: Advanced Vapor Management (AVM) technology enables accurate vacuum level adjustment for optimal evaporation results.
  • Deep Vacuum Capability: Achieves vacuum levels down to 2 torr (2.6 mbar, 0.266 kPa) for demanding applications.
  • Efficient Solvent Removal: Rapidly strips dimethylformamide (DMF) and other challenging solvents.
  • Superior Chemical Resistance: PTFE construction withstands aggressive vapours and corrosive chemicals.
  • Zero Oil Maintenance: Eliminates oil changes and cold trap requirements for water and alcohol solutions.
  • Minimal Maintenance Design: Virtually maintenance-free operation ideal for busy laboratory environments.
  • Space-Saving Compact Design: Smaller footprint compared to traditional oil pumps maximizes valuable bench space.
  • Rotary Evaporator Optimized: Specifically engineered for seamless integration with rotary evaporation systems.
