Festo Vacuum Pump, 2 mm nozzle, 3.5 bar 98 L/min, VN series

This vacuum pump is a Compact device designed to generate suction for automation and industrial tasks. It connects directly to pneumatic systems via quick-fit ports and incorporates noise suppression for quieter operation, making it suitable for integration into production lines and laboratory setups where space and acoustic performance matter.

• Maximum suction flow 98L/min delivers high throughput for pick-and-place
• Maximum vacuum pressure 3.5bar supports strong workpiece retention
• Maximum operating temperature 60°C allows elevated-temperature environments
• Nozzle diameter 2mm enables compatibility with fine vacuum fittings
• QS inlet thread provides rapid, tool-free hose connection
• Outlet QS-12 vacuum connection ensures secure system integration

• Suitable for pick-and-place in electronics assembly
• Ideal for end-of-arm tooling on robotic handlers
• Used with vacuum grippers for lightweight parts handling
• Can be used for clamp and hold operations in test rigs
• Used for component transfer on automated production lines

The unit uses quick-connect fittings on both inlet and outlet, with an outlet sized QS-12 to join standard pneumatic tubing without additional adaptors.

A fitted silencer reduces exhaust noise by attenuating pressure pulses at the outlet, improving workplace sound levels during continuous use.

The device is rated to operate safely at temperatures up to 60°C, so it should be installed away from heat sources exceeding that limit.

Its design targets space-constrained installations by combining a small footprint with a high flow rate, enabling dense packaging on automation equipment.
