Let our experts customize a vacuum education program just for you

Thanks to the Pfeiffer Vacuum “know-how”, we continue to be the market leader in vacuum technology. Vacuum Education by Pfeiffer Vacuum benefits you by providing the right kind of education solution to meet your specific needs. While the Pfeiffer Vacuum Education department can provide introductory, mid-level, as well as advanced vacuum and specific product training, the flexibility of our course modules allows us to provide the right amount of material and depth for the appropriate audience. Although this may require more work prior to the course, there is no wasted learning time and is something that makes our department stand out from others. Additionally, our Vacuum Education staff includes members with 30+ years of vacuum experience, as well as graduate degrees.

We can provide education in a broad selection of topics as there are modules ranging from the theory of mass spectrometry inlet systems, vacuum pump down calculations, to practical rebuilding of the leak detector valve block, to name a few.

The Vacuum Education program possesses the flexibility to provide courses at your site or at any Pfeiffer Vacuum facility (Nashua, NH; San Jose, CA; Indianapolis, IN), and can provide vacuum equipment for hands-on learning if needed.
