Thus far, if you have just joined our series, we have provided an understanding of velocity in dental vacuums, types of vacuums, High-flow systems, and standard terms in Dental Vacuum. Today, we will be continuing forward, providing more information about Low-flow systems, as well as highlighting the keys to BaseVac’s success.
BaseVac’s Key to Success
The key to why BaseVac systems outperform all other systems in the Dental Industry, we understand the importance of critical flow. Science dictates at 15” of Hg, you reach the point where no more flow can pass through a hole. In a vacuum system that can create suction beyond 15” of Hg and maintain it, the flow in CFM through any hole in the system is at its maximum. Our secret, BaseVac can produce up to 25” of Hg. By setting the safety valve at a level beyond 15” of Hg, we begin to utilize the concept of stored vacuum capacity.
In simple terms, as long as the average vacuum is above 15” of Hg, the flow through every hole in the system is at its maximum. It is this fact alone that makes BaseVac perform better than all other systems, as we can exceed the maximum require vacuum, allow a reservoir to build. The reservoir of vacuum is how we provide the highest average suction in the entire industry.
In Summary
There isn’t one perfect pump for every application. The fact that 10” of Hg is the ideal vacuum level for Dental Practices Low-flow systems has more advantages in fluctuating use clinics.
When upgrading from a wet-ring pump (Low-flow), the BaseVac system is the only system on the market that can make a seamless transition, due to our vacuum strength (25” of Hg). When upgrading from High-flow dry-vacuum to a BaseVac, the high suction capabilities of a BaseVac allows for less vacuum fluctuation by creating a vacuum (volume) reservoir in the oversized piping.
BaseVac is a unique product, one that is diverse and a solution to many of the Dental Vacuum needs.
