Description
Pfeiffer Balzers TPH 040 Turbo Vacuum Pump TCP 040 Controller PM P01 090A
This listing includes a Pfeiffer/Balzers TPH 040 turbomolecular vacuum pump paired with its matching TCP 040 power supply controller and interconnecting cable. The system was connected to power during evaluation but does not respond, and is being sold AS-IS for parts or repair with no functionality guarantee. The turbo rotor spins freely by hand, indicating no apparent mechanical seizure. The controller hour meter reads 00002.0, suggesting very low documented run time.

Applications
The Pfeiffer/Balzers TPH 040 is a compact turbomolecular vacuum pump used to achieve high and ultra-high vacuum (HV/UHV) conditions in scientific and industrial processes. Turbomolecular pumps work by transferring momentum to gas molecules through rapidly spinning rotor blades, compressing them toward a foreline connected to a backing (roughing) pump. The TPH 040, with its 40 l/s pumping speed, is sized for small vacuum chambers typical in analytical instruments, electron microscopes, mass spectrometers, thin-film deposition systems, and semiconductor process equipment. The matching TCP 040 controller provides the regulated power and frequency control needed to spin the rotor up to operating speed and maintain it. Pfeiffer Vacuum (formerly Pfeiffer/Balzers, a division of Balzers AG) has been a leading manufacturer of turbomolecular pumps since the 1950s; the TPH series represents their classic compact turbopump line commonly found in laboratory and light industrial vacuum systems from the 1980s and 1990s. Units of this type are actively sought for legacy instrument repair and vacuum system maintenance, as well as for use in newly built small vacuum setups.
This Pfeiffer Balzers TPH 040 Turbomolecular Vacuum Pump with TCP 040 controller and cables was connected to power but does not respond — it is being sold AS-IS for parts or repair. The turbo rotor spins freely by hand, suggesting no obvious mechanical seizure, but the system produces no response when powered. There are pen markings on the back of the controller indicating a remote control setting. No further testing has been performed. The pump body shows normal wear consistent with lab use; the stainless steel housing and inlet flange are intact. The hour meter on the controller reads 00002.0.
