Vacuum Pump (YELV)
Continuous calibration vacuum that sets pipe wall thickness and roundness.

Sector solution / Pipe & cable extrusion
PVC pipe and cable extrusion share a signature duty — vacuum calibration — where the extrudate is pulled against a sizing sleeve under vacuum to set its final dimensions.
CTXWhat this sector runs
On a pipe line, the freshly extruded pipe enters a vacuum calibration tank where vacuum draws it against the sizing die while water cools it; the vacuum level directly controls wall thickness and roundness. It is a continuous, tightly-controlled duty that runs for the whole production campaign.
Cooling air supports the downstream tanks and the general extrusion environment, a centrifugal duty. Reading an extrusion plant as vacuum for calibration tanks plus centrifugal cooling air is the recommended structure — the vacuum sets dimensions, the air sets throughput.

ENGEngineering notes
In pipe extrusion the calibration tank's vacuum pulls the soft extrudate against the sizing sleeve, and the vacuum level directly sets wall thickness and roundness. It is continuous and tightly controlled — a drop shows immediately as an out-of-round or thin-walled pipe. A steady YELV vacuum pump holds that level through the whole campaign, which is why calibration vacuum is specified for stable hold rather than peak, and why it is the process's real dimensional control.
Downstream cooling over the spray and immersion tanks decides how fast the line can run once the wall is set. Steady centrifugal air lets the pipe cool uniformly at speed, so throughput rises without losing the dimensions the vacuum established. A balanced CX blower supplies that cooling air constantly; pairing it with the calibration vacuum gives the line both its dimensional control and its output, each on the right machine.
A pipe line's cooling blowers run continuously, so their efficiency compounds over every production hour into a real annual figure. A machine sized to sit at its best point delivers the cooling air for less power than an oversized one derated with a damper, and a balanced rotor holds that efficiency as it wears. Specifying the real cooling airflow and picking a blower that meets it without throttling is a small decision at purchase that repeats on the meter for years. On a plant running long PVC campaigns, getting the cooling-air sizing right is as much an energy decision as a process one.

WHYWhy Yash Blowers
Calibration vacuum runs the length of every campaign, so its pump has to be steady and its spares close. Yash Blowers has built vacuum pumps in Faridabad since 1998 under ISO 9001:2015, casts its own impellers, and dispatches 300+ machines a day — keeping calibration vacuum and cooling blowers on a domestic chain.
FAQFrequently asked questions
By pulling the soft extrudate against the sizing sleeve in the calibration tank; the vacuum level sets how firmly it seats, which fixes wall thickness and roundness. A steady YELV vacuum pump holds that level through the run.
Centrifugal process air over the spray and cooling tanks. The CX series supplies the steady cooling air that lets the line hold throughput without sacrificing dimensional control.
