🔴 Check carefully
Turbomolecular pump unsuitable for WAVE freeze dryers; requires backing pump.
Condition from photo
Exterior clean, rotor visible and intact. Significant dust/powder residue on lower nameplate suggests prior use in contaminated environment. No visible oil leaks.
Likely refurb / add-ons
- Backing pump (rotary vane, 5–10 m³/h): €400–800
- Turbomolecular pump service/bearing overhaul: €600–1200
- Soft-starter module: €280
Watch out for
- Turbomolecular pump: requires dedicated backing pump and controller; not a stand
- Visible contamination (dust/powder) on nameplate suggests prior exposure to part
- No controller or backing pump included in listing; full system cost significantl

What to look for on this family
Generic Pfeiffer vacuum pump — the exact model family was not detected automatically. Suitability remains unverified until the model or type plate is clear.
Traceable assessment
How each pump is assessed
AI helps read images and listing text. The final suitability result is calculated by a fixed engineering rule using evidenced values.

- 1
Identify the item
The title and photos are checked first to confirm that the listing is a complete vacuum pump — not an accessory, spare part or pump head only.
- 2
Establish evidence
The type plate and listing provide specific facts. Manufacturer values are used only for a confirmed model; family-level values stay clearly labelled.
- 3
Compare engineering data
Pumping speed, water-vapour capacity and ultimate pressure are compared with the selected WAVE machine and the chosen safety margins.
- 4
Assess condition separately
A photo or a seller saying “runs” does not replace a vacuum test. Unknown data remain unknown and never become an automatic green recommendation.
