  2. Suction (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suction_(medicine)

    A dental vacuum system for central suction. In medicine, devices are sometimes necessary to create suction. Suction may be used to clear the airway of blood, saliva, vomit, or other secretions so that a patient may breathe. Suctioning can prevent pulmonary aspiration, which can lead to lung infections. In pulmonary hygiene, suction is used to ...

  3. Micropump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micropump

    The compression ratio of the micropump as one of the critical performance indicator is defined as the ratio between the stroke volume, i.e. fluid volume displaced by the pump membrane over the course of the pump cycle, and the dead volume, i.e. the minimum fluid volume remaining in the pump chamber in pumping mode. [15]

  4. Ion pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_pump

    Ion pump. An ion pump (also referred to as a sputter ion pump) is a type of vacuum pump which operates by sputtering a metal getter. Under ideal conditions, ion pumps are capable of reaching pressures as low as 10 −11 mbar. [1] An ion pump first ionizes gas within the vessel it is attached to and employs a strong electrical potential ...

  5. Negative-pressure wound therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative-pressure_wound...

    Negative pressure wound therapy device. Negative-pressure wound therapy (NPWT), also known as a vacuum assisted closure (VAC), is a therapeutic technique using a suction pump, tubing, and a dressing to remove excess exudate and promote healing in acute or chronic wounds and second- and third-degree burns. The therapy involves the controlled ...

  6. Turbomolecular pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomolecular_pump

    A turbomolecular pump is a type of vacuum pump, superficially similar to a turbopump, used to obtain and maintain high vacuum. [1][2] These pumps work on the principle that gas molecules can be given momentum in a desired direction by repeated collision with a moving solid surface. In a turbomolecular pump, a rapidly spinning fan rotor 'hits ...

  7. Autoclave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoclave

    An autoclave is a machine used to carry out industrial and scientific processes requiring elevated temperature and pressure in relation to ambient pressure and/or temperature. Autoclaves are used before surgical procedures to perform sterilization and in the chemical industry to cure coatings and vulcanize rubber and for hydrothermal synthesis.
