Elmo Rietschle VLU High Vacuum Claw Pump
The Elmo Rietschle VLU series high vacuum claw pump represents the next generation of oil-free industrial vacuum technology, delivering unmatched performance, efficiency, and reliability for demanding industrial applications. Designed with advanced dry claw vacuum pump technology, the VLU achieves vacuum levels exceeding 29 inHg, making it one of the most powerful oil-free claw vacuum pumps available today.
Unlike traditional rotary vane pumps that rely on lubricating oil inside the compression chamber, the Elmo Rietschle VLU claw pump operates completely dry. Its contact-free claw rotors compress air without friction or internal wear, eliminating oil contamination, reducing maintenance requirements, and ensuring long service life in continuous industrial operation.
This breakthrough design allows the VLU vacuum pump to provide both high vacuum performance and efficient pressure capability in a single compact machine, making it an ideal solution for modern manufacturing environments where reliability, cleanliness, and energy efficiency are critical.

Industry-Leading Dry Claw Vacuum Technology
The Elmo Rietschle VLU series utilizes a highly efficient dry claw compression principle. Two precisely synchronized claw rotors rotate in opposite directions within the pump housing, compressing air internally without contact between moving parts.
Because the claws never touch each other or the pump housing, the system operates:
Oil-free in the compression chamberLow vibration and quietExtremely durableHighly energy efficientThis contactless compression design dramatically reduces wear compared with conventional vacuum pump technologies and allows the VLU claw pump to maintain stable vacuum performance even in continuous duty industrial environments.The result is a high vacuum claw pump capable of achieving vacuum levels over 29 inHg, a milestone rarely achieved by dry claw technology.
