INSTALL THE PNEUMATIC VACUUM 

GENERATOR (IVPVG) (option) 

 

 

Figure 1 

 

1.0   OVERVIEW 

 

The Laurell Technologies’ IV - pneumatic vacuum generator is capable of generating a 
variable amount of vacuum depending on input air pressure.  It creates a vacuum by 
venturi action.

INSTALLATION 

 

1.

 

For best performance use a dedicated CDA or N2 supply regulator for the 
vacuum generator.  The generator’s flow rate is approximately 1.67cfm at 
60psi. See figure 2.  
 

Note:

 It may be possible to “tee” the CDA or N2 supply to both the processor 

and the IVPVG but there must be a sufficient volume of gas to satisfy both.  If 
there is an insufficient volume, the processor will produce a “Need CDA” error 
message.  Also, there may be a loss of vacuum from its initial level (when the 
vacuum is first applied).
