Vacuu-lan lab vacuum systems

Modern Lab Design Starts with Smarter Vacuum Systems

VACUU·LAN lab vacuum systems are the advanced alternative to central vacuum systems—offering flexible, energy-efficient, and modular vacuum solutions designed to streamline lab construction, reduce costs, and simplify coordination. Whether you're leading the design vision or engineering the technical infrastructure, VACUU·LAN systems help you deliver high-performance labs without compromise.

Five Key Benefits for Architects and Engineers

Design-Friendly Infrastructure
Compact components preserve space and support open, adaptable layouts while eliminating the need for dedicated vacuum pump rooms and extensive copper piping networks.

 

Simplified Engineering Coordination
Reduces cross-discipline complexity by minimizing exhaust lines, condensate drains, and water-cooling systems, allowing for smoother project execution and fewer coordination meetings.

 

Fast-Track & Renovation Ready
Ideal for design-build, modular construction, and renovation projects where speed and minimal disruption are critical. Each system can be installed independently of other building systems.

 

Sustainable Lab Performance
Supports LEED, WELL, and other green building certifications with energy-efficient operation. Oil-free pumps run only when needed, reducing both energy consumption and maintenance requirements.

 

Reliable, Application-Specific Vacuum
Delivers consistent, lab-grade performance with purpose-selected pumps that match the needs of each lab space—from chemistry to biology to analytical applications.

Renovated laboratory facility

"VACUU·LAN systems helped us stay on schedule and simplified cross-discipline coordination. It's become our standard solution for lab projects because of how easily it adapts to changing research needs."

Case Studies

Replacement of a central vacuum system to meet the demands of an expanded science program and diverse cirriculum.
Purdue replaced the central vacuum system in their Biochemistry building saving $400,000 per year!
Twenty-eight VACUU·LAN system pumps were installed providing vacuum at 300+ workstations with an estimated energy savings of over 55%.
This install increased lab vacuum chemical resistance and saved the chemical manufacturer on energy consumption.
A VACUU·LAN system solved the bottlenecks in research on optimized microbiomes for marine life, to increase throughput and
new funding opportunities.
