Belt Driven Vacuum Pumps

What are belt-driven vacuum pumps?

Belt-driven pumps are among the most commonly found vacuum pumps. Their operation is simple: A belt is connected between an electric motor and a vacuum motor, linking their rotation. 

The built-in electric motor does not create vacuum itself, but rather it spins the belt around the vacuum motor. The vacuum motor once spun, creates a vacuum for your system using internal vanes.
