Oil-Injected Screw Vacuum Pumps

BOSV Series

The oil-injected screw vacuum pumps in the Becker BOSV series cover a volumetric flow range from 426 to 6,181 m³/h. They generate a stable rough vacuum between 10 and 450 mbar absolute, with an ultimate pressure down to 0.3 mbar. This makes them a strong fit for industrial applications that rely on high energy efficiency and a dependable vacuum supply.

 

The permanent magnet motor runs efficiently across a wide speed range and responds quickly to changing loads. The oil inside the system handles sealing, cooling, and lubrication in a closed loop. This keeps operation smooth and extends service life, even when dealing with humid intake air or long continuous runtimes. Thanks to their rugged mechanical design, precisely controllable compression, and reliable control system, these oil-lubricated vacuum pumps are a solid choice for central vacuum systems. Typical uses include packaging lines, electronics manufacturing, and processing operations in the plastics and food industries.

Technology and design of the oil-injected BOSV screw vacuum pumps

The oil-injected screw vacuum pumps in the BOSV series are engineered to deliver steady and reliable vacuum performance, even under demanding operating conditions. At the heart of the design is a screw-specific compression element developed specifically for industrial rough vacuum applications. It uses a precisely matched rotor geometry and operates without the need for an external oil pump.

 

The closed oil circuit takes on several tasks at the same time. It reliably seals the compression chamber, removes the heat generated during compression, and ensures consistent lubrication of all critical components. This keeps operating temperatures stable, even during long runtimes or when loads fluctuate. The mechanical layout minimizes internal leakage and supports smooth, low-vibration operation of the screw element.

 

The integrated oil separator in the Becker BOSV series reduces residual oil content in the exhaust air to a maximum of 1 ppm. Within the same closed oil circuit, sealing, cooling, and lubrication are handled efficiently, again without any external oil pump. This setup maintains stable operating temperatures over extended operating hours and changing loads, while protecting sensitive production environments such as cleanrooms.

 

On top of that, the pumps feature a well-designed cooling system, low noise levels thanks to an acoustic enclosure, and smart control functions that make day-to-day operation noticeably easier.

The oil-lubricated Becker BOSV screw vacuum pumps use a permanent magnet direct drive, with no V-belts or gearbox. An integrated frequency inverter allows precise speed control and helps reduce operating costs compared to conventional drive concepts.

Central vacuum systems

In central installations, many workstations or machines need to be supplied with vacuum safely and at the same time. Oil‑injected screw vacuum pumps from the BOSV series are a strong fit here because they can quickly adapt their output to changing demands and remain stable even during extended operating hours. The combination of an efficient motor, precise control, and smooth running behavior provides a reliable foundation for installations in electronics manufacturing, wood working, the plastics industry, the printing industry, or in packaging lines. This makes it easy to cover complex supply concepts without the system losing flexibility.

 

Packaging and food processing

In food processing, a consistent level of vacuum plays a key role, both in packaging and in processes such as drying or removing water from products. Oil‑lubricated screw vacuum pumps from the BOSV series deliver a stable rough vacuum that adapts quickly to changing requirements and remains reliable even when handling humid air.

 

During drying processes, vacuum allows water to evaporate at much lower temperatures. This helps protect sensitive aromas, colors, and nutrients, which is especially important for herbs, fruit extracts, and other delicate food products. In a similar way, vacuum supports the thickening of liquid products by gently removing excess water. This so‑called concentration helps preserve flavor and natural ingredients while improving shelf life, without exposing the product to high heat.

 

Thanks to the oil used in the system, which reliably binds moisture and particles, the screw element remains protected and the process runs in a stable and clean manner. The oil‑injected BOSV series is therefore suitable for packaging lines, blister forming, drying, and the thickening of extracts, as well as many other applications in the food industry.

Electronics and display production

In the production of electronics and displays, many process steps are sensitive to even the slightest pressure fluctuations. A consistently controlled vacuum is required to bond materials cleanly, degas surfaces, or apply layers with precision.

 

The oil‑lubricated BOSV series keeps the vacuum level constant even during rapid load changes. This allows lamination processes, degassing steps, and coating processes, as well as the processing of glass and metals, to be carried out reliably. The closed oil circuit system keeps the exhaust air clean and supports cleanrooms and other sensitive production environments.

 

Plastics and fiber composite technology

When processing plastics and composite materials, vacuum systems often need to support long, frequently continuous process phases. These include resin infusion, mold making, and the production of large components such as rotor blades or housing elements.

 

The oil‑injected BOSV series operates stably even at low rotational speeds and remains reliable over time thanks to efficient cooling and a consistent oil circuit. The constant vacuum supports clean resin flow, reliable curing, and repeatable molding processes. This makes the pumps well suited for composite manufacturing and plastic forming, as well as other applications that require smooth and robust vacuum operation.
