Ball Bearing Turbo Molecular Pumps

A ball bearing uses balls as rolling elements. It is a versatile bearing capable of supporting radial loads, thrust loads, or both. Its characteristics include a low manufacturing cost, easy troubleshooting, high resistance to external shock, and a lighter weight than magnetic bearing types due to its simple structure and fewer components.
Ball bearing-type turbo molecular pumps are further categorized as “grease-lubricated” or “oil-lubricated.” Osaka Vacuum offers a wide range of these pumps.

List of Ball Bearing Turbo Molecular Pumps

TG-F SERIES

Grease-lubricated ball bearing type Turbo Molecular Pumps

Grease-lubricated ball bearing models with a pumping speed of 50 to 2400 L/s.

Since its launch in 1999, the TG-F Series has been one of our best-selling turbo molecular pump models. Its grease-lubricated ball bearings make it compact and robust with high shock tolerance. This feature enables the pump to be installed on portable equipment or moving parts.

Point

  • Mounting orientation free: flexibility in vacuum equipment design

  • Maintenance-free: No grease refill between the overhaul cycle of 20,000 to 30,000 hours.

  • Compact and lightweight design.

  • Models that can withstand air inrush are available. Models that can withstand shock are also available, making them suitable for use in portable systems or moving parts.

  • Onboad controller models (TG60F, TG70F, TG240)
