Understanding Vacuum Pumps and Enclosures: A Guide to Thoreson McCosh’s MK-Series

In various industrial applications, the efficient removal of gases and unwanted substances is crucial for optimal performance. This is where vacuum pumps play a pivotal role. Among the plethora of options available in the market, the MK-Series Vacuum Pump by Thoreson McCosh stands out for its reliability, versatility, and performance. 

What are Vacuum Pumps? 

Vacuum pumps are devices designed to remove gas molecules from a sealed volume to create a partial vacuum. This process finds applications across industries such as manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food processing, and more. By reducing the pressure within a closed system, vacuum pumps enable the efficient transfer, filtration, and manipulation of substances.
