Hi, Can anyone recomend a vacuum pump suitable for testingt the integrity of a small ROV such as a Seabotix or an AC-ROV? Also, any 2nd hand ones for sale?
Thanks in advance.
Hey ROVdo 😉
Try here: http://www.minivac.co.uk/ They are in South East England and the prices are right!
One of the models looks not far off that supplied by Seabotix for the LBV – ABS construction as opposed to metal of some sort.
You may need to sort out tube and fittings locally but that should be no great issue.
To run a vacuum check on the AC-ROV you may need to adapt one of the acrylic ports with a fitting.
Good luck :tup:
James, Perfect. Thank you for your assistance in finding a suitable vacuum pump. Cheers and regards.
