Hygienic Enclosures for Vacuum Pumps

Food Safety is essential for the food market and typically food producers & processors disinfect their installations and machines daily just to guarantee a high Food Safety level. Vacuum pumps are mainly built-in or installed next to the machinery and that’s with only poor or even no protection at all. Most vacuum pumps cannot cope with daily washdowns, especially with aggressive cleaning media, these result in corroded vacuum pumps, reduced life cycles or even increased risks of pollution. To avoid this, Leybold has developed a range of Stainless-Steel Hygienic Enclosures. The enclosures are simple and don’t interfere with the pump’s operations.

"Receiving the Product of the Year Award in this category in particular is a special recognition of the quality of our products in the area of food processing,” says Juliane Garz, Business Line Manager Leybold. “It’s impossible to overstate the importance of safety and quality in food manufacturing and with the Hygienic Enclosure food applications can now be operated more hygienically, ergonomically and flexibly.”
