The following steps will allow you to estimate the required CFM for both. Pump selection should be based on the higher of the two numbers.Pump Down1. Determine the volume of the system or process in ft3 (or m3).2. Determine the pump down factor from the graph.3. Divide the volume of the system ft3 (or m3) by the desired pump down time in minutes (or hours) and multiply by the pump down factor.PUMP DOWN FACTORPRESS URE IN mbarPRESS URE IN TO RR3025201510500.001 0.01 0.1 1 10 100 10000.001 0.01 0.1 1 10 100 760System Volume ft3 (or m3)Desired Pump Down Time min (or hr)Pump Down Factor (from chart)Pump Capacity in CFM (or m3/h)X =FormulaGas LoadIf you know the volumetric flow of gas at standard conditions (760 Torr, 700F) (1013 mbar, 0oC), use this formula:Formula for English units:If you know the mass flow of gas in lbs/hr (or kg/hr), use this formula:Formula for English units:760 Pressure in TorrPump Capacity in ACFMX =VolumetricFlow (SCFM)XTemp (°F) + 460 5301013 Pressure in mbarPump Capacity in m3/hVolume in m3/h XX =Temp (°C) + 273 273Gas Flow in lbs/hr X Material Factor*Pressure in TorrPump Capacity in CFM=Pump Capacity in m3/h=*Material Factor: Air Water VaporEnglish Units169272Metric Units8421354Gas Flow in kg/h X Material Factor*Pressure in mbarFor metric units:For metric units:Other FactorsThe design of the vacuum piping connecting the pump to the process may affect the selection of the vacuum pump. Piping which is too long or too small in diameter will reduce pumping speed at the process. For rapid pump down on small volumes, include the volume of the piping as part of the volume to be evacuated.• Take into account these factors:• Is the gas to be pumped dry or are there heavy vapor loads?• Is the gas clean? Is it contaminated by dust or chemicals?• Compare the power consumption of alternatives.• Is cooling water available if required? Is air cooling an option?

A final selection should be based on a consideration of “OTHER FACTORS” as listed in the previous section.VBXpert Vacuum & Blower Sizing ToolGain access to the most useful tool available for blower sizing and selection This easy-to-use software prompts you to plug in technical specifications for your application and “VB” quickly calculates the best vacuum pump or blower for you.VBXpert is available for download via the Tuthill Vacuum & Blower Systems web site: tuthillvacuumblower.comDistributed by:TH-004 02/14Tuthill Vacuum & Blower Systems4840 West Kearney StreetSpringfield, Missouri USA 65803-8702o 417.865.8715 800.825.6937 f 417.865.2950tuthillvacuumblower.comINTERNATIONAL QUALITY STANDARDREGISTEREDVACUUM & BLOWER SYSTEMSTUTHILL CORPORATION Tuthill Vacuum & Blower Systems, manufacturer of Kinney® vacuum pumps and M-D Pneumatics™ blowers & vacuum boosters, is a leader in the design and manufacture of high performance, reliable positive displacement blowers, mechanical vacuum pumps, vacuum boosters and engineered systems ready to install and run.
