1. The working pressure of the vacuum pump should meet the ultimate vacuum and working pressure requirements of the vacuum equipment.
For example, vacuum coating requires a vacuum degree of 1×10-5mmHg, so the selected vacuum pump should be at least 5×10-6mmHg. Usually, the vacuum degree of the pump is selected to be half to an order of magnitude higher than the vacuum degree of the vacuum equipment.
2. Correctly select the working point of the vacuum pump. Each pump has a certain working pressure range, such as: diffusion pump is 10-3~10-7mmHg, in such a wide pressure range, the pumping speed of the pump changes with the pressure, and its stable working pressure range is 5 × 10 -4~5×10-6mmHg. Therefore, the working point of the pump should be selected within this range, and it cannot be allowed to work for a long time under 10-8mmHg. Another example is that the titanium sublimation pump can work under 10-2mmHg, but its working pressure should be less than 1×10-5mmHg.
3. Under its working pressure, the vacuum pump should be able to remove all the gas generated in the process of the vacuum equipment.
4. Correctly combine the vacuum pump. Due to the selective pumping of vacuum pumps, sometimes one type of pump cannot meet the pumping requirements, and several pumps need to be combined to complement each other to meet the pumping requirements. For example, the titanium sublimation pump has a high pumping speed for hydrogen, but cannot pump helium, while the three-pole sputtering ion pump (or the two-pole asymmetric cathode sputtering ion pump) has a certain pumping speed for argon. Combined, the vacuum device will get a better vacuum degree. In addition, some vacuum pumps cannot work under atmospheric pressure and require pre-vacuum; some vacuum pumps have an outlet pressure lower than atmospheric pressure and require a fore pump, so they all need to be used in combination.
5. Requirements for oil pollution of vacuum equipment. If the equipment is strictly required to be oil-free, various oil-free pumps should be selected, such as: water ring pump, molecular sieve adsorption pump, sputtering ion pump, cryogenic pump, etc. If the requirements are not strict, you can choose an oil pump, plus some anti-oil pollution measures, such as adding cold traps, baffles, oil traps, etc., can also meet the clean vacuum requirements.
6. Understand the composition of the gas being pumped. The gas contains no condensable vapor, whether there is particle dust, whether there is corrosiveness, etc. When choosing a vacuum pump, you need to know the gas composition and select the corresponding pump for the gas to be pumped. If the gas contains vapors, particles, and corrosive gases, it should be considered to install auxiliary equipment such as condensers, dust collectors, etc. on the inlet pipeline of the pump.
7. The impact of the oil vapor discharged from the vacuum pump on the environment. If the environment does not allow pollution, you can choose an oil-free vacuum pump, or discharge the oil vapor to the outside.
8. Whether the vibration generated by the vacuum pump has any influence on the process and the environment. If the process does not allow, choose a pump without vibration or take anti-vibration measures.
9. The price, operation and maintenance cost of the vacuum pump. In the case of license, should try to use cheap and high-quality vacuum pump.
