View quote listThe NOVADRY ND 160 is an air-cooled dry screw vacuum pump for food processing, packaging and compatible industrial rough-vacuum duties. The manufacturer’s C5 operating instructions specify 155 m³/h maximum pumping speed without gas ballast and 0.1 mbar ultimate pressure without gas ballast.
The 160 provides 155 m³/h in the C5 manual, with greater vapour capacity than the smaller models when correctly configured. Allow for the larger pump envelope and starting equipment.
| Specification | Details |
|---|---|
| Maximum pumping speed | 155 m³/h without gas ballast; ±5%, C5 manual |
| Ultimate pressure | 0.1 mbar without gas ballast |
| Inlet / exhaust | G 2 in / G 1½ in (internal inlet / external exhaust) |
| Electrical supply | Three-phase, version-specific: 200/400 V ±10% at 50 Hz; 230/460 V or 200/380 V ±10% at 60 Hz |
| Maximum current, 400 V / 50 Hz | 6.7 A; selected motor and protection must match |
| Water-vapour capacity with gas ballast | 5.2 kg/h; depends on installed configuration |
| Water-vapour tolerance with gas ballast | 60 mbar; installed configuration applies |
| Maximum discharge pressure above ambient | 200 mbar; higher backpressure worsens ultimate pressure |
| Dimensions (L × W × H) | 918 × 488 × 315 mm; standard envelope, check chosen connections |
| Mass | Approximately 105 kg |
| Cooling / ambient | Air-cooled; 0–40 °C |
The C5 operating manual is used for the ratings above. Some brochures and manufacturer overview pages give different figures for the 160/200 models; confirm the supplied revision and pressure-speed curve with the quotation. Gas ballast and exhaust backpressure affect performance.
For a UK 400 V, 50 Hz installation, specify the matching three-phase version. These are motor-terminal connections, with supply cable, isolation and motor protection selected for the installation. A domestic plug and mains lead are not assumed. Confirm the full order code, nameplate, phase sequence and starting arrangement.
The NOVADRY manual requires a soft starter for ND 160 and ND 200. Include the correctly sized starter in the quotation and confirm whether it is already supplied in the proposed package.
Allow clear cooling airflow and space for belt and silencer service. Select inlet filtration and exhaust routing for the actual process. Above 1000 m installation altitude, request manufacturer review. An optional external variable-frequency drive must remain within the permitted motor speed; do not assume flow scales linearly with speed.
Gas ballast helps prevent condensation but changes attainable pressure. Water-vapour figures apply only to the stated configuration. Specify water load, cleaning procedures, particles and all process gases; the pump alone does not establish suitability for a complete food process or hazardous atmosphere.
NOVADRY suits rough-vacuum duties where an oil-free pumping arrangement is desirable. Inlet adapters, filtration, flushing and purge kits, a hygienic enclosure and controls are selected accessories. The standard pump shown is not automatically a hygienic-enclosure package.
