Vacuum Pump Oils

Lubricant selection for single- and dual-stage units.

QA Lubricants can help review vacuum pump oil options for industrial equipment and facility vacuum systems. Match the oil to the pump manufacturer's requirements, the application and the operating conditions.

The right oil starts with the pump.

Oil-lubricated vacuum pumps require a fluid suited to their design and service conditions. The number of stages is one part of the equipment description; oil selection also depends on the specified viscosity, fluid chemistry and application.

Provide the pump make and model, current oil and service requirements so QA can help compare suitable options.

01

Single-Stage Units

Oil options reviewed against the requirements of your single-stage pump.

02

Dual-Stage Units

Lubricants matched to the manufacturer's specification for two-stage equipment.

03

Industrial Applications

Product selection for vacuum equipment used in manufacturing and process operations.

04

Facility Systems

Oil selection support for equipment maintained to its applicable service requirements.

Equipment & oil options

Single-stage and dual-stage pump support.

Share the equipment details to begin a lubricant review.

Single-Stage Vacuum Pumps

For oil-lubricated single-stage units, use the oil type and grade specified for the pump. QA can help review your current product and available alternatives using the equipment documentation.

Dual-Stage Vacuum Pumps

Two-stage equipment also requires an oil matched to its design and operating conditions. Provide the model, required vacuum level, process conditions and lubricant specification when requesting a recommendation.

Vacuum Pump Oil Selection

Review the required viscosity, base-fluid type, operating temperature and exposure to process vapors. Mineral and synthetic oil options should be evaluated against the pump's requirements.

The image illustrates oil for both unit types; it does not imply that a stage count alone determines which oil to use.

Hospital & facility equipment

Support for installed vacuum systems.

Hospital vacuum systems may include oil-lubricated pumps maintained in dedicated equipment rooms. Review lubricant needs with the equipment documentation and the facility's approved maintenance process.

Provide the installed pump model, current lubricant and applicable service requirements when asking QA about product options.

Selection factors

Match the lubricant to the service.

These details help identify an appropriate product for your equipment.
