Cheaper is not always better!
As with any equipment within an organisation in the manufacturing industry, it is vital to compare recognise that cost isn’t always the most important aspect of your purchase of an Industrial Vacuum. Often the procurement person may well source the most cost-effective equipment, without basic understanding of the product’s requirements in the workplace, over-looking the fact that cheaper can also equate to less productive in certain instances. It is always best to compare apples to apples, so to speak, in terms of spec of your items and be mindful that cost is not always the most important factor.
Industrial Vacuums are required for a variety of heavy-duty processing methods for various applications in manufacturing. While the technology behind the standard vacuum pump has not changed significantly since its inception, conversely the quality of the equipment has! An item imported from a cheap competitor across the world may well save you money on your budget’s bottom-line, but without consistency and efficacy to maintain it, the product will not be as productive for your business at the end of the day. You do need to find the right vacuum for your organisations manufacturing and production needs.
IBS offer a vast range of industrial vacuums, such as industrial Portable Vacuum units, Side Channel blowers and vacuum pumps. There is stock of a large range of vacuums and pumps which are consistently available to choose from. One of the most popular and durable rotary vane vacuum pumps stocked is the Fruitland RCF1200 vacuum pump for use in environmental and heavy-duty industrial applications, the performance of which can be measured in terms of its ultimate pressure rating in Torr, mBar, or Pascal, with pumping speed in CFM, or cubic meters per hour. Heavy Duty High Performance Industrial Vacuums have the capacity for amassing a large variation of materials and can load at a high-level and consistent rate per hour. Their technical spec includes approximate air flow of 630 CFM, maximum vacuum of 28.5” hg, pressure to 35 PSI and operating speed of 1000.
IBS offers the built for performance Hydrive Series Hydraulic Cooler Packs used for cooling hydraulic oil, usually in Hydraulic Power Packs but also on power washers, engines and anywhere there is boiling cooking oil which needs to be cooled. The ease of use and variety of the Hydrive Series Hydraulic Cooler Packs makes them effective across many industrial sectors. They typically have low operating costs and are simple to maintain. Made from stainless steel, to withstand the harshest conditions, with easy-to-read restriction gauge and easy-to-access reservoir drain, their compact size allows for easy installation on vehicles. Their technical spec includes an oil flow rate of 55 to 100 litres per minute, fan speed of 2800 rpm, heat dissipation rate of 10 Kw for 40 degrees C temperature rise and oil tank capacity of 10 litres.

IBS | Wet Industrial Vacuuming Hire
IBS Industrial Blower Services has an impressive range of blowers, vacuums and pumps available to manufacturers in the industrial and other sectors. As suppliers, IBS is well known for its products and related service options and is considered UK’s premium go-to when it comes to pumps, blowers and vacuums. The manufacturing environment is a competitive one so its imperative that businesses consider quality industrial equipment to support their on-going success.
There are 3 types of vacuum pumps of which the most popular is the positive displacement pump, with momentum transfer pumps and entrapments pumps being subsidiaries to the positive displacement pump. While momentum (also known as molecular) pumps use a intense jets of fluid or high paced rotating blades to remove gas molecules of out a chamber, alternatively entrapment vacuum pumps utilise lower temperatures to decrease a gas molecules size thereby trapping the gases into a absorbent or even solid state within a chamber. Positive displacement pumps make use of technology, which moves fluids or liquids through the pump chamber by increasing the cavity on the suction side of the vacuum and discharging the fluid as the cavity collapses. There are two types of positive displacement vacuum pumps, the first being reciprocating positive displacement pumps, the technology of which you will find commonly in piston pumps. And the second being the rotary positive displacement pump of which liquid ring pump and sliding vane rotary pump are common examples
As robust as the vacuum pump can be, there will be occasions, which result in a call for hiring of an industrial vacuum pump. Some businesses prefer to hire their vacuum pumps for short periods where the need arises. Other businesses may be under-going maintenance and servicing and as such would require replacement vacuum pumps to avoid downtime of production. New businesses who are not yet sustainable enough to purchase large industrial equipment prefer not to make the initial purchase and revert to hiring the desired, requisite equipment. In order Hire Heavy Duty Industrial Vacuum, companies can contact IBS professional engineers for advice on how best to proceed with their vacuum pump set up, requirements and suitable options.
In the event of a breakdown IBS have liquid ring, rotary vane, side channel, claw and roots type vacuum pumps available. For Wet Industrial Vacuuming Hire the range for hire provides volume flow rates between 4 and 1500 m3/hour FAD.

While best known for being suppliers of Industrial Vacuum units, vacuum pumps, side channel blowers and similar equipment such as compressors, those use in the road tanker industry, or rotary valves most commonly in the food industry, IBS has extended their range to include dense conveying equipment and systems to accommodate the needs of industries such as milling, environmental, chemical and building industries. It is fair to say that while the application of dilute phase systems, widely accepted as being more economical and simpler in application, is a limited application when compared to dense phase systems. Where there is a requirement to move a denser product or concentration of fragile, abrasive or friable materials, the dense phase pneumatic system, such as the Gvf impianti range available from IBS, is undoubtedly more efficient. The ability to move bulk product, while preserving the integrity of the product, at low velocity with high pressure, results in higher industrial efficiency, with less wear and tear on the system, reducing the cost of system maintenance.
Speak to IBS process engineers who can perform a full survey, complete with reports and plans which will provide you with a full choice of relevant and practical options which will assist you in designing the best system, relevant to your business’s needs.
