Product news

Pfeiffer Vacuum, one of the world's leading producers of vacuum products and services, announces the release of its new catalog, "The Vacuum Technology Book." The 800-page, four-color, hardcover reference book and catalog covers the complete range of vacuum technology, including equipment for generating, controlling and measuring vacuum, as well as accessories and components. In addition, there is a 150-page vacuum technology reference section. For each product, the catalog contains information on the field of application, features, technical data and part numbers. An online version of the catalog is available on the company website.

The products covered in "The Vacuum Technology Book" include turbomolecular, rotary vane, roots and dry pumps, vacuum gauges and controllers, mass spectrometers, helium leak detectors, flanges, feedthroughs and valves. New to the catalog are a complete line of HiPace™ turbopumps, HiPace™ MC magnetically levitated turbopumps, PentaLine™ two-stage rotary vane pumps, HenaLine™ single-stage rotary vane pumps, OktaLine™ roots pumps, HeptaDry™ dry screw pumps, PrismaPlus™ mass spectrometers, HiQuad™ high-end mass spectrometers and electromagnetically, electropneumatically and manually actuated valves.

The Vacuum Technology reference section provides an introduction to vacuum technology with basic vacuum fundamentals, pump operating principles and designs, the fundamentals of pressure measurement, operating principles of mass spectrometers, leak detection test methods and useful information on valves and components. There is also a section that helps with dimensioning questions such as "How big of a pump do I need? What is the correct backing pump? Should I be concerned about pumping high gas loads? How does the piping influence the volume flow rate?"

Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

Labware and Lab SuppliesLabware and lab supplies include various forms of glassware, plasticware, reagents and personal protective equipment (PPE) and are used across all scientific laboratories, enabling daily tasks to be performed. Explore a range of flasks and beakers, petri dishes, carboys and storage bottles. Labware such as condensers, desiccators and burettes are also available for more specific tasks. Find the best labware and lab supplies in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Preparative ChromatographyPreparative chromatography equipment is used for purification purposes, separating and collecting compounds eluted from a mixture which can then be subsequently used for further purposes. This can be done in large quantities or small. Preparative chromatography systems are usually low to medium pressure liquid chromatographs that are semi-automated. Explore a range of preparative columns and fraction collectors.
