Is it necessary to install a buffer tank at the outlet of the reciprocating vacuum pump?
Check the system’s vacuum usage level! If the system vacuum can be established quickly, no buffering is needed; buffering should be considered in other situations
How is the outlet of a vacuum pump determined, and what is the purpose of installing a buffer tank at the outlet? Looking at the flow direction of the fluid, it seems that the outlet of the vacuum pump should be connected to the atmosphere,,,,,. I haven’t come into contact with it; please let me know clearly. Thank you!
No, there is no need for gas-liquid separation
It is standard practice to connect the outlet of a reciprocating vacuum pump to the buffer tank of an exhaust gas absorption system; it should not be discharged directly into the atmosphere. Installing a small buffer tank between the exhaust gas absorption buffer tank and the vacuum pump can help separate some of the condensed liquid, which can then be collected regularly – this is also a good approach.
