Definitions

  • the first spiral section 120 extends from the in 12 indicated location to the outer end of the spiral wall 28, as is also the case, for example, in figure 5 is indicated.
  • the first spiral section 120 extends here by way of example over approximately 163°.
  • the preferably fluoropolymer-containing sealing not only promotes the dry lubricating properties of the sliding layer 152 and also reduces its wear, but also improves the gas-tightness of the sliding layer 152, resulting in an improvement in the ultimate pressures that can be achieved and a reduction in the run-in time.
  • the supports 154, in the form of the base plate 66, and the spiral walls 26, 28 are each formed in one piece and consist of an aluminum alloy of the AlMgSi type.
  • the oxide layer of sliding layer 152 is an aluminum oxide layer produced by anodic oxidation in a sulfuric acid electrolyte.
  • the sliding layer 152 is applied in particular to all surfaces of the spiral components 24, 30 that face the conveying chambers.
  • the seal 150 shown (tip seals) is, for example, polytetrafluoroethylene containing polyimide particles and was produced by hot compression molding and subsequent sintering.
  • the mean particle size of the polyimide particles is 25 ⁇ m.
