Equipment Paths

Buy a diffusion pump, rent temporary equipment or rebuild what you already own

A failed or underperforming diffusion pump does not automatically require buying another pump. YTI can help determine whether replacement, rental coverage or refurbishment makes the most sense for the system and production schedule.

01 · PURCHASE

Buy available equipment

Choose from current standalone diffusion pumps and complete pump stacks with purchase prices shown directly on this page. YTI confirms condition, physical configuration and included hardware before final sale.

Browse current inventory →

02 · RENT

Bridge production downtime

Qualifying standalone pumps may be available for temporary rental while customer-owned equipment is being repaired or rebuilt, helping reduce extended production downtime.

Ask about rental availability →

03 · REFURBISH

Restore your existing pump

YTI can tear down, clean and inspect the pump, evaluate the internal jet assembly and heaters, replace seals, install appropriate fluid, leak test and verify performance.

Diffusion Pump Buying Guide

Do not choose a replacement diffusion pump by throat size alone

Two pumps with similar nominal inlet dimensions may still differ in overall height, flange pattern, foreline position, heater voltage, pumping speed, fluid requirement, cooling needs and integration hardware. The surrounding vacuum system matters just as much as the pump model.

01 · INLET

Chamber connection

Confirm flange diameter, flange standard, bolt pattern, valve interface and available physical clearance.

02 · PUMPING

Required capacity

Chamber volume, process gas load, target pressure and cycle-time requirements influence the correct pumping package.

03 · HEATERS

Electrical configuration

Verify heater wattage, facility voltage, phase, controls, thermal protection and safety interlocks.

04 · COOLING

Water requirements

Pump body, baffle and cold-cap cooling must have reliable flow and temperature control throughout operation.

05 · BACKING

Foreline & backing pump

Diffusion pumps depend on an adequately sized backing stage capable of maintaining the required forepressure.

06 · PROCESS

Fluid & cleanliness

Process sensitivity, pump fluid, baffles, traps and contamination requirements can affect the final configuration.

Equipment Types

Standalone diffusion pump vs complete pump stack

Several listings on this page are standalone diffusion pumps while others are larger pump-stack assemblies. Knowing which one you need can reduce fabrication and integration work during replacement.

Standalone Diffusion Pump

A standalone pump is appropriate when the surrounding high-vacuum valve, baffle, foreline, backing system and controls are already installed and compatible.

  • Replacement pump body and internal jet assembly
  • Existing system hardware remains in place
  • Requires flange and dimensional compatibility
  • Electrical and heater requirements must be verified

Complete Pump Stack

A pump stack may include significantly more of the vacuum package, making it useful for equipment rebuilds, system repurposing or replacing multiple aging components together.

  • Diffusion pump
  • High-vacuum valve or isolation hardware
  • Baffle, cold cap or trapping hardware
  • Foreline components
  • Potential backing equipment and controls
  • Support frame and integration hardware

Complete High-Vacuum Package

The diffusion pump is only one part of the pumping system

Poor chamber pressure or slow pump-down can come from the pump itself, but it can also come from restricted conductance, weak backing capacity, cooling problems, contaminated fluid, valves, leaks, gauges or control sequencing.

Diffusion Pump Body, boiler, jet assembly, heaters and fluid.
High-Vacuum Valve Isolation, conductance, seals and actuation.
Baffle / Cold Cap Backstreaming control and inlet conductance.
Cooling Water Pump wall, baffle and thermal management.
Foreline Connections, isolation and forepressure.
Backing Pump Mechanical roughing and foreline capacity.
Vacuum Gauges Pressure measurement and control decisions.
Controls & Interlocks Safe heater, cooling and valve sequencing.

Varian / Agilent

Current and legacy Varian pump support

YTI’s current inventory includes Varian HS-35, HS-20 and HS-6 pumps along with an HS-35 pump stack. YTI also supports legacy Varian and current Agilent vacuum equipment for service, refurbishment, components and system troubleshooting.

Varian & Agilent support →
CVC

Consolidated Vacuum Corporation equipment

YTI inventory includes a large CVC 35-inch diffusion pump and complete six-inch pump stacks. Legacy CVC installations can be evaluated as complete pumping systems rather than treating the pump body in isolation.

Diffusion Pump FAQs

Buying, pricing, renting and replacing diffusion pumps

How much do YTI diffusion pumps cost?

Current purchase prices range from $750 for a CVC 6-inch pump stack to $25,000 for a Varian HS-35 diffusion pump. Current listed prices are HS-35 $25,000, HS-20 $18,500, HS-6 $3,000, CVC 35-inch $18,500, CVC 6-inch pump stack $750 and Varian HS-35 pump stack $4,500. Freight and final configuration are confirmed before sale.

Does YTI sell diffusion pumps?

Yes. YTI maintains inventory of standalone diffusion pumps and complete pump stacks. Current listings include Varian and CVC equipment, with pricing and availability shown above.

What diffusion pumps does YTI currently have available?

Current listings include the Varian HS-35, Varian HS-20, Varian HS-6, CVC 35-inch diffusion pump, CVC six-inch pump stacks and a complete Varian HS-35 pump stack.

Can I rent a diffusion pump from YTI?

Rental is available on qualifying equipment and can be useful when an existing pump is being repaired or refurbished. The standalone HS-35, HS-20 and HS-6 currently include rental options. Contact YTI to confirm availability.

Are all pump stacks available for rental?

No. The current CVC six-inch pump stack and Varian HS-35 pump stack are offered for sale. Rental should not be assumed unless specifically confirmed by YTI.

Can YTI refurbish my existing diffusion pump instead of replacing it?

Yes. YTI can disassemble and clean the pump, inspect the internal jet assembly, evaluate heaters and boiler condition, replace seals and gaskets, install appropriate pump fluid, helium leak test the assembly and verify performance.

What brands of diffusion pumps does YTI support?

YTI supports current and legacy diffusion-pump equipment including Varian, Agilent, CVC, Balzers and Leybold, depending on the exact model and requested work.

Should I buy a replacement pump or rebuild my existing one?

The answer depends on contamination, body condition, jet-stack condition, heaters, required downtime, available replacement equipment, process requirements and the cost of integrating another pump. YTI can evaluate both paths.

What is the difference between a diffusion pump and a pump stack?

A standalone diffusion pump is the high-vacuum pump itself. A pump stack can include the diffusion pump plus valves, baffles or cold caps, foreline hardware, backing equipment, controls, supports and other connected components.

Can I replace one diffusion pump with another pump of the same size?

Not automatically. Nominal inlet diameter does not confirm flange compatibility, overall dimensions, heater requirements, foreline position, pumping speed, fluid requirements, cooling or connected hardware.

What information should I send YTI before buying a pump?

Send the manufacturer, model, serial or nameplate information, photos, inlet and foreline dimensions, heater voltage and wattage if known, backing-pump model, cooling information, process application, target vacuum and required timeline.

Why does the backing pump matter?

A diffusion pump cannot exhaust directly to atmosphere. It depends on a mechanical backing or foreline pump to maintain acceptable outlet pressure. Weak backing performance can make a good diffusion pump appear to be underperforming.

Need a diffusion pump or complete pump stack?

Browse YTI’s priced inventory above or send the current pump model, chamber application, photos and required timeline. YTI can review purchase, rental, refurbishment and replacement options.
