Italvacuum - A Wide Range of Vacuum Dryers and Vacuum Pumps for Fine Chemical Applications

Relying on 70 years of experience in the field of vacuum dryers and vacuum pumps for the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, Italvacuum is a consolidated industrial company with a staff of 55 people in a plant of 5.000 m². Italvacuum manufacturing includes:

• Rotary dryers (CRIOX system)
• Cylindrical dryers
• Multispray cabinet dryers
• SAURUS939 pumps

Italvacuum also supplies a full range of components to make the plant a complete turn-key system.

CRIOX SYSTEM

The CRIOX System, a great success patent, is a rotary vacuum dryer, with the ability to extract water and other solvents from the wet powders coming from filtering or centrifuge. CRIOX is multi-product being studied for the use with the widest range of possible materials.

CRIOX guarantees absolute safety for the process and the operators, being manufactured in the full respect of the FDA rules and being compliant to ATEX norms. The particular form of CRIOX, with soft lines (without edges and sharp corners), allows the realization of models fully coated for process using particularly aggressive substance.

The lump breaker unit applied to the bicone, another unique feature, not only prevents the forming of lumps, but it also allows powdering and grinding. This ensures a checked granulometry and a final product ready for sacking. CRIOX guarantees reproduction and homogeneity of process for all batches. For complete cleaning with internal C.I.P. device, simple actions and small quantities of liquid are required.

Dissembling and inspection are facilitated by the opening of the hatch. Furthermore, to facilitate the SWAB test implementation, Italvacuum has designed and patented a great port lid, heated and insulated at the same conditions of the external envelope.

MULTISPRAY VACUUM CABINET DRYERS

Multispray vacuum cabinet dryers consist of a cabinet and a series of shelves heated through the circulation of fluid. Also the drying chamber is heated, in order to avoid condensation. A specific fluid distribution manifold guarantees homogeneity of heating on all radiant plates. The main features of these dryers are the perfect polish of the inside of the cabinet and heating plates, as well as the watertight covering of the door.

The cabinet dryers have special closures and particle free trays for complete recovery of powders. Last but not least, the new patented C.I.P. MULTISPRAY System allows to carry out washing and cleaning operations of the drying chamber and of the inner shelves, eliminating any risk for the operators.

CYLINDRICAL VACUUM DRYERS

Rotary cylindrical vacuum dryers are designed for drying, mixing and condensing operations in the manufacture of granulated plastic materials: chips, beads, slices, pellets and scraps.

SAURUS939 VACUUM PUMP

The simple and traditional design, together with innovative technical solutions, as the new LUBRIZERO System, that reduced to zero the oil consumption, make SAURUS939 superlative in all chemical and pharmaceutical processes, such as drying, distillation and reaction.

In the case of common solvents and even the most aggressive, SAURUS939 guarantees absolute safety for the process and the operators, high endurance against powders, high resistance against corrosion, high endurance against condensate solvents, use without limits in all vacuum range, installation in dangerous environment, absolute reliability with high performances, very low operating costs.

Several models of pumps are offered: three of the single stage type and three of the dual stage type. Cooling is by air for all types. Three models with root compressor. Special models with dual root compressor are supplied on request. Nominal flow rate: from 80 to 3.800 m3/h. Vacuum: from 7 to 0,03 mbar.

SAURUS939 complies to ATEX norms (being also available until zone 0).

TECHNICAL SERVICE

Italvacuum has developed a commendable after sales service, with the capacity to support the client immediately after the acceptance of the plant and during the start up, checking constantly the efficient operation of the machine. Furthermore, Italvacuum service also takes care of the customer with an efficient policy of scheduled maintenance.
