VARIAIR CENTRAL SYSTEM
Central Systems with a promise of success.
The VARIAIR Central System (VACS) from Becker provides a compact solution for supplying vacuum efficiently to match demand by utilizing variable frequency drives and intelligent controls. Whether a small business or various production needs in a large company, the energy-saving VARIAIR Central System delivers reliable performance.
VACS reduces noise in the work environment and lowers operating personnel exposure to high temperatures through the absence of direct heat sources. One of the key advantages of the VACS system is the Becker VARIAIR Controller+ modular control system, which enables optimized performance and efficiency. It manages consistent pressure levels with up to 6 pumps in one central system. The VARIAIR Central System obviates the need for additional pump rooms. Affording a high degree of flexibility, VACS uses short connection lines and costs little to install. All connected equipment is provided with a built-on frequency converter.

VARIAIR Controller+
for system solutions
The VARIAIR Controller+ is the future-proof technology solution for centralized control and monitoring of systems. The controller is easy and flexible to adapt to customer specifications. This allows multiple vacuum pumps or compressors, with or without Becker frequency converter technology (VARIAIR Units), to be integrated into a user-friendly overall system. For example, a VARIAIR Central System can be equipped with different operating principles, such as side-channel compressors and rotary vane pumps, as needed.

VAIRIAIR CENTRAL SYSTEM ADVANTAGES
OPTIMIZED FOR YOUR APPLICATION
Every VACS central vacuum system is custom designed to match your process, production requirements, and vacuum demand. The result is a solution that delivers consistent performance, improved efficiency, and reliable operation for your specific application.
LOWER ENERGY COSTS & IMPROVED WORKING CONDITIONS
Replacing multiple point-of-use vacuum pumps with a centralized system reduces heat, noise, and oil mist in the production area. In climate-controlled facilities, removing heat-generating pumps from the production floor also reduces the load on air conditioning systems, helping lower overall energy consumption. Combined with the VARIAIR Controller+, the system automatically adjusts vacuum output to match demand, eliminating unnecessary energy use.
SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE
With all vacuum pumps located in one central area, routine maintenance, inspections, and servicing become faster, safer, and more convenient. Standardized equipment also reduces the variety of spare parts required, simplifying inventory management and lowering maintenance costs.
APPLICATION AND MARKET USES
