The vAK500 Degasser is a rugged vacuum unit designed to safely and efficiently remove 99.9% of entrained air and gasses such as methane, H2S and CO2 from drilling fluids. Designed for the rigors of field use, the unit features a 5 hp, 50 or 60 Hz industrial-grade TEXP motor rated for continuous operation, which powers the vacuum pump. A push-button starter gives operators fingertip control. This self-contained, skid mounted unit supplies up to 29" Hg of vacuum to efficiently handle high-viscosity fluids.
