Overview
The Varian VA 810TET vacuum valve actuator Series 65 is a pneumatically-actuated valve control component designed for precise regulation of vacuum pressure and gas flow in laboratory and industrial vacuum systems. With its distinctive red housing and proven Varian build quality, this actuator provides reliable on/off valve operation and pressure management across a wide range of vacuum applications.
Key Features
- Pneumatic actuation for straightforward integration into vacuum systems
- Red housing for easy identification and visibility in installations
- Series 65 specification with proven design for laboratory and industrial use
- Spring-return or air-return capable depending on configuration
- Compact mounting footprint suitable for chamber-mounted or remote installations
Technical Specifications
This actuator is designed to operate with standard compressed air supplies and integrates with Varian vacuum equipment ecosystems. Typical Varian pneumatic actuators feature 1/8″ NPT air connections and are rated for continuous cycling in moderate-temperature environments. The red-housing variant identifies this as a standard production unit from Varian’s established valve actuator line.
Typical Applications
- Research and analytical vacuum systems requiring precise gas isolation
- Semiconductor and material science chamber evacuation and venting
- Vacuum pump inlet or outlet flow control
- Multi-stage vacuum system integration with solenoid or manual override
- Laboratory apparatus vacuum supply management
