LVO 540 Diffusion Pump Oil for Leybold OB Series

We are delighted to introduce the LVO 540 Diffusion Pump Oil, a high-performance hydrocarbon-based fluid meticulously engineered to meet the stringent demands of high vacuum applications. This premium oil is an essential component for achieving and maintaining optimal vacuum levels in critical industrial and scientific processes, ensuring the longevity and efficiency of your vacuum systems.

The LVO 540 is specifically formulated for use in diffusion pumps, where its exceptional properties contribute to superior vacuum performance. At the heart of its capability is an incredibly low vapor pressure of just 6×10⁻⁶ mbar at 20℃. This characteristic is paramount for diffusion pump oils, as it directly influences the ultimate vacuum achievable, enabling your systems to reach deeper vacuum levels with greater reliability. For more information on selecting the right fluids, explore our range of Leybold vacuum pump oil options.

One of the most critical attributes of the LVO 540 is its outstanding thermal stability and chemical stability. Diffusion pumps operate at high temperatures, and the oil is constantly exposed to heat and process gases. The LVO 540's robust formulation resists degradation, minimizing the formation of harmful byproducts that can contaminate the vacuum system, reduce pump efficiency, and necessitate frequent oil changes. This inherent stability translates into extended service intervals and reduced maintenance costs for your equipment.

Safety and operational integrity are also paramount. With a high flash point of 196℃, the LVO 540 offers an excellent safety margin during operation, reducing the risk of ignition even under demanding conditions. Its density of 885 kg/m³ ensures consistent performance and compatibility with various pump designs.

This superior diffusion pump oil is ideally suited for Leybold OB series (Oil Vapor Jet Pumps). Its precise formulation ensures perfect compatibility and optimal performance within these specialized vacuum systems, maximizing their efficiency and extending their operational life. Choosing the correct Leybold vacuum pump oil is crucial for pump longevity and performance.

For your convenience, the LVO 540 is available under Part No. L 540 99 for the 205-liter container. We understand the critical role that high-quality vacuum pump oils play in your operations, and the LVO 540 stands as a testament to our commitment to providing reliable and high-performing solutions for all your vacuum needs. Ensure your Leybold pumps run optimally by always using approved Leybold vacuum pump oil.
