Ensuring the optimal performance and extended lifespan of your Leybold vacuum pumps hinges critically on the quality of the vacuum pump oil you choose. For the most challenging industrial and scientific applications, where conventional oils fall short due to aggressive media, high temperatures, or oxygen-rich environments, a specialized lubricant is indispensable. This is precisely where the **PFPE Vacuum Pump Oil LVO 410** excels, delivering unmatched protection and operational stability.
The LVO 410 represents a pinnacle in high-performance lubrication, meticulously engineered for critical vacuum processes. It is a pure **Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) type oil, completely devoid of additives**. This pristine composition is the cornerstone of its extraordinary properties, guaranteeing steadfast stability and non-reactivity even under the most severe operational conditions.
Let's examine its formidable technical specifications:
- Type: Perfluoropolyether (PFPE) - Additive-Free
The PFPE foundation endows this oil with extreme chemical inertness. This makes it exceptionally resistant to degradation from reactive gases, acids, bases, and oxygen, which are common in many vacuum applications. This resistance is vital for preventing pump damage, minimizing downtime, and ensuring the purity of your vacuum environment.

- Viscosity (40℃): 89 mm²/s
This viscosity rating signifies a robust film strength at typical operating temperatures. It ensures superior lubrication and sealing capabilities within your vacuum pump, facilitating efficient operation and significantly reducing wear on crucial moving components. This contributes directly to the long-term reliability and performance of your Leybold system.
- Density: 1900 kg/m³
The elevated density of LVO 410 is a testament to its unique molecular structure, contributing to its exceptionally low vapor pressure and outstanding sealing performance within the pump mechanism.
- Pour Point: -35℃
An impressive pour point of -35℃ indicates excellent fluidity at low temperatures. This ensures reliable pump start-up and consistent lubrication even in colder operating environments, preventing potential damage from inadequate oil flow during initial operation.
- Characteristics: Chemical Inertness, Highest Thermal Stability
These are the defining attributes of LVO 410. Its chemical inertness means it will not react with process gases, preventing the formation of harmful byproducts or sludge that can contaminate your system and degrade pump components. Its highest thermal stability ensures it maintains its lubricating properties and integrity even under prolonged exposure to high temperatures, making it ideal for demanding applications where other oils would quickly break down. This stability is a key differentiator for specialized Leybold vacuum pump oil.
The PFPE Vacuum Pump Oil LVO 410 is specifically recommended and designed for a range of high-performance Leybold vacuum pumps, ensuring they operate at their peak efficiency and maintain their integrity:
