ymc226 Posted April 19, 2018 Share #1 Posted April 19, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) I tried to Google this in the US but can’t locate a small cube shaped vacuum pump that thin latex tubing can be attached to suck out dust from the camera near the sensor. The video (I wish I still had the link) showed the person explaining that this was easy to get in Europe for about 200 euros or so. He seemed to activate it via a foot switch. Can any one from Europe provide some sources? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted April 19, 2018 Share #2 Posted April 19, 2018 May I ask why cube-shaped? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymc226 Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share #3 Posted April 19, 2018 It seemed compact and maybe would provide a clue as to its maker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LocalHero1953 Posted April 19, 2018 Share #4 Posted April 19, 2018 It must be this one https://www.pfeiffer-vacuum.com/en/products/pumping-stations/turbo-pumping-stations/hicube-eco/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymc226 Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share #5 Posted April 19, 2018 Thanks local hero. I don’t think that’s it as it is too large. Ithe one I saw was very dark blue to black and I estimate about 9 inches on each side. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted April 19, 2018 Share #6 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) It must be this one https://www.pfeiffer-vacuum.com/en/products/pumping-stations/turbo-pumping-stations/hicube-eco/ Good detective work! I am not confident in the OP's requisites. If his application is for cameras, a modest battery powered unit with options for various sized vacuum tips, including tubes, seems better. I am reluctant to recommend because he may not know what is really best and he might be disappointed. Edited April 19, 2018 by pico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pico Posted April 19, 2018 Share #8 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Here you are, Fit’s the bill ......and your description It does! How interesting. It is something a micro-mechanic could keep on the bench. It is now on my wish list. Thanks for that. Edited April 19, 2018 by pico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreasAM Posted April 19, 2018 Share #9 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) It is just 45 Euro’s ( 60 Dollars)!! Cheap enough to explore the quality and shipment to the USA from Germany won’t break the bank. It is only 180x135x135 mm. It is an accessory for soldering equipment Edited April 19, 2018 by AndreasAM 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ymc226 Posted April 19, 2018 Author Share #10 Posted April 19, 2018 Thanks AndreasAM, It's even cheaper in the USA from Amazon. $45 with Prime delivery. I think I will give it a try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted April 19, 2018 Share #11 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) It does! How interesting. It is something a micro-mechanic could keep on the bench. It is now on my wish list. Reviews indicate it is not for general use. Good for soldering sucking - maybe. Edited April 19, 2018 by pico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

robert blu Posted May 10, 2018 Share #13 Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) When I bought my M10 in Wetzlar I was suggested to use this one to suck dust in the area around the sensor, lens mounts, etc Much more expensive ... robert Edited May 10, 2018 by robert blu Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted May 10, 2018 Share #14 Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) Oi! I just bought a super-sucking mini-vacuum with a few tips and it has a collection bag to capture the debris. Google "ecola vacuum" Edited May 10, 2018 by pico Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
