Atlas Copco announced the dry screw vacuum pump DHS 3000 VSD+, developed specifically for massive flow industrial applications. As dry technology, it’s well-suited for paper processing, conveying technologies, pick-and-place applications in the food industry and as a central vacuum system. Powered by a highly efficient IE4 motor with a patented asymmetrical rotor design, users benefit from energy savings of up to 50% compared to competitive products. The low-maintenance, compact vacuum pump has a low noise level and runs vibration-free.

An integrated, intelligent control system with a frequency converter automatically adjusts the speed of the DHS 3000 VSD+ to the requirements, ensuring the exact vacuum level required is delivered in each process section. This results in significantly lower energy consumption and reduced wear on all moving components. This also extends the maintenance intervals and service life of the vacuum pump. A wear-free gearbox ensures optimum power transmission from the motor to the screw.
“We have achieved a long service life for the gear wheels by using a cooled oil flow,” said Carol Pignatelli, Product Manager, Atlas Copco. “We have also equipped the DHS VSD+ with an air intake filter to protect the operational process from dust and particles.”
A range of ergonomic advantages and straightforward handling make the DHS 3000 VSD+ extremely user-friendly. The easy-to-use Elektronikon® control system gives users a constant overview of the latest status updates on operating and downtimes, errors and alarms.
“Atlas Copco supplies the DHS VSD+ as a complete plug-and-play unit that can be seamlessly and quickly integrated into any system,” said Pignatelli.
