Overview
The DVP BCA Lobe Boosters is part of the DVP lobe vacuum boosters range. The documented capacity is 279–2887 m³/h at 50 Hz; 334–3465 m³/h at 60 Hz. Ask Girovac to match the configuration to your duty and electrical supply.
Choosing the right configuration
A lobe booster works with a primary pump to improve pumping speed over part of the pressure range. Select the pair from the system curve and respect differential-pressure and start-up limits. A booster is not a stand-alone replacement for the backing pump.
A Roots-type booster must be selected with its primary pump and control arrangement. Maximum differential pressure is not an ultimate-vacuum rating. The gas chamber is dry; gears, bearings and shaft sealing have separate lubricant requirements.

Frequently asked questions
Which gauge should I use with this pump or system?
A Pirani vacuum transducer is a useful starting point for measuring pump-down into lower pressures. Check its measuring range, gas correction and process compatibility. Measure at the chamber or point of use when that is the pressure your process depends on. Gauge calibration can be specified around the operating range and required test points.
How do I select oil and service parts?
Use the complete model, serial number and manufacturer oil specification. Different suffixes and gear compartments can require different lubricants. See vacuum oils and greases and send the nameplate details when requesting parts.
What information does Girovac need for a quotation?
Send the model, required flow at working pressure, gas or vapour, operating hours, electrical supply and any installation restrictions. For a replacement, include a nameplate photograph. We will confirm the proposed configuration, price and lead time before ordering.
Can this equipment be considered for a larger vacuum installation?
Discuss the complete duty when reviewing industrial vacuum systems. A central installation also needs matched controls, filtration, pipework and pressure measurement; pump capacity alone is not the system specification.
