Airtech vacuum pumps are manufactured by the New Jersey-based Airtech Inc. The company was launched in 1982 and is known as a distributor of vacuum and pressure pumps and rotary vane pumps. The company's products service various industries, including printing, medical, environmental remediation, automation and pharmaceutical.

One of the models of Airtech vacuum pumps offered in the market is the 3AV Liquid Ring Series. According to the firm, the model is ideal for operations requiring low levels of noise. The 3AV has a compact design. The curved blades of the impeller are said to reduce tip speed which effectively enhances the model's life expectancy.

Airtech is also known for its dry rotary vane pumps. The Orion model of this type of pump has a lightweight design and is recommended as an alternative for oil sealed rotary vane pumps. It has built-in particulate filters and silencers and is touted as almost maintenance-free. It operates up to 150 CFM and can achieve 27" Hg of end vacuum. For the medical industry and the calibration market, Airtech has also manufactured the dry piston vacuum pressure pump. The firm recommends the model to operations held in close proximity to populated areas.

Another offering from Airtech is the VCX/PCX rotary claw vacuum pump and compressor. This positive displacement pump features air cooling, dry running and non-contacting capabilities. The model is considered one of the more durable and reliable products of Airtech. The claw rotors enhance the machine's air compression and air discharging capabilities and the valve in the inlet flange prevents pumping chamber back flow.

Aside from vacuum pumps, the New Jersey company also manufactures and distributes replacement parts and accessories for lubricated vacuum pumps, dust and chip removal systems, spare parts for printing pumps, gauges, vacuum booster and dual knock-out pots among others.

Airtech also has a pump exchange program wherein customers can exchange brands of rotary vane and liquid ring vacuum pumps for some of the components available at the company's warehouse. Under the program, the company will offer an exchange price for a rebuilt or new replacement pump, with the exchange price similar to the repair cost of the customer's existing pump. Refurbished and used vacuum pumps and compressors are also available online from various distributors.

Airtech vacuum pumps are designed to fulfill precision functions for various industries and scientific applications. Customers who are interested in exchanging pumps for another can also explore the company's pump exchange program.
