Description
Mini diaphragm vacuum pump N 86 KT.18 is a compact laboratory vacuum pump offering a maximum pumping volume of 5,5 l/min and an ultimate total pressure of 160 according to DIN 28432. Built for everyday bench-top vacuum tasks, it runs on 230 V AC via a Type F protective-contact (Schuko) mains plug and has a power consumption of 60 W. The unit carries protection class IP20 and weighs 1,9 kg net (2,09 kg gross), so it fits easily into limited laboratory workspace. Permissible operating temperatures range from 5 °C to 40 °C. This model from manufacturer KNF is documented as having a successor pump available—the LABOPORT N 96—while the N 86 KT.18 configuration itself remains specified where the established performance profile is still required. Supplied as one piece, it supports general laboratory vacuum duties that need a small diaphragm pump with moderate ultimate pressure and modest flow for chemical, analytical or sample-preparation applications.

Questions about Pump N 86 KT.18
What is this article?
Pump N 86 KT.18 is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KNF for laboratory use. It sits in Vacuum pumps, inside Pumps, vacuum & evaporation, in Lab instruments.
A laboratory vacuum pump lowers pressure for filtration or evaporation. A diaphragm pump tolerates solvent vapour better than an oil-sealed rotary vane pump, and it reaches a milder vacuum. The ultimate vacuum and the flow, and whether the wetted path survives the solvent, are the choices.
A vacuum pump lowers the pressure above a liquid so it boils at a lower temperature. That is the point of a rotary evaporator: solvent leaves a sample without cooking it. A diaphragm pump or a rotary-vane pump is chosen by the vacuum it reaches and by whether solvent vapour will destroy it. A peristaltic pump moves liquid by squeezing a tube, so the liquid touches only the tube. A barrel pump transfers a larger volume from a drum. The glassware on the evaporator is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Solvent identity is on PubChem.
