VP20 Mid Series air-powered venturi vacuum pumps are the most commonly used pumps for pick and place applications and were designed for the ease of mounting and a wide variety of available accesssories such as vacuum gauges, switches and sensors. Vaccon Mid Series vacuum pumps provide maximum design versatility: designers specify only the features necessary for their specific application.

The VP20 pumps may be configured with an optional solenoid valve for vacuum control. The integrated solenoid valve is available with an optional rugged, 3-pin male M8 connector for quick, reliable and simple installation.

The Mid Series modular venturi pumps are configured with Vaccon's interchangeable venturi cartridge system which enhances manufacturing flexibility, enabling designers to choose the vacuum level, vacuum flow, evacuation speed or air consumption required based on one of 11 venturi cartridges. The cartridges are field upgradeable, allowing performance to be quickly and easily updated if your needs change.
