<h2>How to choose a Welch vacuum pump</h2>
&nbsp;
Choose the Dryfast ULTRA series for oil-free chemical vacuum
The Dryfast ULTRA series provides PTFE-wetted, oil-free vacuum pumps suitable for routine chemistry and biology applications. Single-stage models are used for filtration, while two-stage models support deeper vacuum for rotary evaporation and concentration.
Choose the CRV Pro series for aggressive chemical resistance
The CRV Pro series is designed for highly corrosive environments, including strong acids and halogenated solvents, offering enhanced material resistance compared with standard diaphragm pump construction.
Confirm ultimate vacuum requirements
Single-stage Welch pumps typically reach ~50&ndash;100 mbar for filtration, while two-stage models achieve ~3&ndash;7 mbar for rotary evaporation and SpeedVac applications. Model selection should match the required vacuum level.
Consider control requirements
Most Welch pumps are used as standalone systems, but they can also be paired with external vacuum controllers for set-point regulation when more precise control is required.
Check noise and installation requirements
Noise levels vary by model, so specifications should be reviewed for bench placement or enclosed operation. Exhaust routing and ventilation should also be considered during setup.
&nbsp;
<h2>Specifications context</h2>
&nbsp;
Welch Dryfast pumps are designed for continuous operation with thermal protection that shuts down the motor under overheating conditions and restarts after cooling. They are widely used in North American laboratories due to their balance of cost, reliability, and chemical resistance.
As of 2026, Welch Dryfast ULTRA pumps remain a standard choice for oil-free diaphragm vacuum applications in research and analytical labs.

Welch ProBoost Air-Cooled Diffusion Pump

The Welch ProBoost is an air-cooled gas jet (diffusion) pump designed for high-vacuum applications. It operates without internal moving parts, using boiling silicone vapors to create a gas jet. Backed by a rotary vane pump, ProBoost can achieve vacuum pressures as low as 0.00002 torr, significantly improving reaction results with air-sensitive compounds like organometallics and hydrides. It features a built-in control board for the fan and heater, ensuring efficient cooling after operation.\n\n\n\n
