Vacuum + Pressure
One machine simultaneously provides suction and usable positive pressure.
Dry-running rotary claw technology that creates vacuum and low-pressure compressed air simultaneously. CompreVac supplies and supports the Elmo Rietschle C-KLR 80 and C-KLR 140 for printing, paper handling, packaging and industrial automation applications.
Combined pressure and vacuum technology supplied and supported by CompreVac.
Elmo Rietschle C-KLR pumps combine vacuum and positive pressure in one dry-running machine. CompreVac supplies C-KLR equipment together with application engineering, system design, replacement equipment, parts and service.
Elmo Rietschle C-KLR pressure vacuum pumps are designed to create vacuum at the inlet while simultaneously delivering positive pressure from the discharge.
This is particularly useful in applications where one part of a machine requires suction while another requires low-pressure air. Printing and paper handling equipment are classic examples, with vacuum used for sheet pickup and pressure air used for sheet separation.
The C-KLR uses dry-running, synchronized claw rotors that operate without contact in the compression chamber, helping provide high efficiency and comparatively low routine maintenance.
The C-KLR combines two process functions with the efficiency and low-maintenance benefits of dry-running rotary claw technology.
One machine simultaneously provides suction and usable positive pressure.
The claw rotors run without contacting one another inside the compression chamber.
Vacuum and pressure operating points are largely independent within the machine's operating envelope.
Built-in air cooling avoids the need for an additional external cooling medium.
The two C-KLR models allow CompreVac to match airflow and motor size to the requirements of the machine or industrial process.
The C-KLR 80 and C-KLR 140 provide simultaneous vacuum and positive pressure from one dry-running rotary claw package. Published C-Series literature shows combined pressure-vacuum operation up to approximately -0.6 bar vacuum and +1.0 bar pressure, depending on operating conditions.
Two synchronized claw-shaped rotors rotate without contact inside the compression chamber. Air entering through the vacuum inlet is trapped, transported and internally compressed before leaving the pressure discharge.
C-KLR technology is especially useful where vacuum and low-pressure air are both needed as part of the same machine cycle.
Vacuum sheet pickup combined with pressure-air sheet separation.
Sheet transport, feeding, separating, positioning and finishing machinery.
Vacuum handling combined with positive-pressure release or separation.
Vacuum gripping with low-pressure air used for product release.
Two air functions supplied from one compact industrial package.
Integrated pressure and vacuum supply for purpose-built production machinery.
Elmo Rietschle manufactures industrial claw, rotary vane, screw, side-channel and liquid-ring vacuum and pressure technologies.
CompreVac supplies Elmo Rietschle C-KLR pressure vacuum pumps with application engineering, replacement equipment, system design, parts and service support.
For a new installation, CompreVac can evaluate required vacuum, positive pressure, airflow, duty cycle, controls and piping as part of the complete system rather than simply selecting a pump by nominal capacity.
A pressure vacuum pump creates vacuum at the inlet while simultaneously producing positive pressure at the discharge, allowing one machine to support two process-air functions.
The C-KLR range covered here consists of the C-KLR 80 and C-KLR 140.
Elmo Rietschle C-Series literature lists combined pressure-vacuum performance of up to approximately -0.6 bar underpressure and +1.0 bar overpressure for the combined pressure-vacuum configuration.
The operating points are designed to be largely independent of one another, allowing the machine to serve applications that need different vacuum and pressure conditions simultaneously.
Yes. The C-Series claw principle uses dry compression with synchronized rotors that operate without contact inside the compression chamber.
Vacuum can be used to pick up or grip sheets while the pressure side provides low-pressure air for sheet separation, allowing both operations to occur during the same machine cycle.
Published 60 Hz ratings are 7.5 hp for the C-KLR 80 and 10 hp for the C-KLR 140.
Yes. CompreVac can review required vacuum, pressure, airflow, operating cycle and system conditions to help select the appropriate model.
Yes. CompreVac provides troubleshooting, replacement parts, field service and workshop repair support for industrial vacuum and pressure equipment.
