Description
VSK 3000 Sensor (for 636657) is a pressure transducer intended for precise vacuum measurement and control within laboratory systems. The sensor carries NRTL certification (C/US) and is specified as the dedicated order item for reference 636657, ensuring correct compatibility with the corresponding controller or gauge platform. Net weight is 0.21 kg and gross weight is 0.26 kg, providing a robust yet manageable component for permanent or modular vacuum installations. Supplied as 1 pc, the transducer integrates into existing VACUUBRAND vacuum networks used in chemistry, life-science and process laboratories. This VSK 3000 Sensor from manufacturer VACUUBRAND originates from Germany and supports reliable pressure monitoring under typical research conditions. Its design focuses on accurate signal output for system regulation, helping maintain stable vacuum levels during distillation, filtration or evaporation procedures. The unit belongs to the laboratory materials category and offers a straightforward replacement or upgrade path for instruments requiring the VSK 3000 sensing element. Laboratories benefit from the certified construction and defined interface that simplify installation and long-term maintenance of vacuum apparatus.

Questions about VSK 3000 gauge head (for 636657)
What is this article?
VSK 3000 gauge head (for 636657) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Vacuubrand 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.
