RIETSCHLE THOMAS

Rietschle Thomas is a brand within the Gardner Denver family of industrial vacuum and pressure solutions, with a history that traces back to the merger of Rietschle and Thomas in the early 2000s. The brand is known for manufacturing rotary vane, rotary screw, claw, and side-channel vacuum pumps and blowers, as well as oil-free and lubricated compressors. These products are used in applications ranging from packaging and printing to medical suction, pneumatic conveying, and wastewater treatment. Rietschle Thomas pumps are typically built to withstand continuous industrial duty, with cast iron or aluminum housings, precision-machined rotors, and long-life bearings. Many models are available with different motor voltages, enclosure ratings, and connection types to suit specific installation requirements. 3G Electric supplies Rietschle Thomas lubricated rotary vane vacuum pumps, including models such as the VC-75, VCE-25, and VCS 50. These pumps are positive-displacement, oil-lubricated rotary vane units that generate vacuum by rotating vanes within a stator. The VC-75 delivers 49.4 cfm free air displacement with a 3 hp, 3-phase motor rated at 208-230/460V AC. The VCE-25 provides 17.7 cfm with a 1.5 hp, 3-phase motor at 230/460V AC. The VCS 50 offers 35.3 cfm with a 2 hp, 3-phase motor at 230/460V AC. All three models feature NPT connections and are designed for industrial vacuum generation in applications such as packaging, material handling, and process vacuum. 3G Electric supports the Rietschle Thomas line with multiple SKUs available for global shipment. The company provides logistics coordination, technical documentation, and access to replacement parts and service kits. For plant engineers and maintenance managers, 3G Electric can assist with model selection based on required flow rate, vacuum level, and motor specifications. The pumps are typically supplied with installation manuals and maintenance schedules to support preventive maintenance programs. Because these are lubricated rotary vane pumps, they require regular oil changes and filter replacements to maintain performance and longevity. 3G Electric can supply the necessary consumables and spare parts to keep these pumps operating efficiently. The product range includes options for different voltage and phase requirements, making them suitable for various industrial power configurations. Whether the application involves continuous duty or intermittent operation, Rietschle Thomas pumps are engineered for reliable performance in demanding environments. 3G Electric's role is to ensure that customers have access to the right pump for their specific vacuum needs, along with the support to integrate and maintain it. With a focus on industrial equipment distribution, 3G Electric serves a global customer base, providing technical guidance and logistical support for Rietschle Thomas products.
