Description
Alcatel CIT-Alcatel 2004A MP004A Dry Diaphragm Vacuum Pump 1/3 HP 115/230V 60Hz
The Alcatel CIT-Alcatel 2004A is a portable, oil-free dry diaphragm vacuum pump made in Annecy, France. It uses a diaphragm pumping mechanism — meaning no oil is required, producing a clean, dry vacuum — and is driven by a Franklin Electric single-phase induction motor. The compact benchtop form factor and integrated carry handle make it easy to move between workstations.

Applications
Diaphragm vacuum pumps like the Alcatel 2004A are used in laboratory and light industrial settings where a clean, oil-free vacuum source is needed. Common applications include vacuum filtration, rotary evaporation, gel drying, vacuum desiccation, degassing, and general bench-top vacuum work in research and analytical labs. Because diaphragm pumps produce no oil mist or oil vapor, they are well suited for use with chemically sensitive processes or where vapor contamination is a concern. The CIT-Alcatel 2004 series was manufactured in France and was a widely used platform in European and North American university and industrial laboratories from the 1980s onward. These pumps are still in active service in many labs today, and replacement diaphragms are generally available from vacuum pump suppliers.
This Alcatel CIT-Alcatel 2004A dry diaphragm vacuum pump is a used unit pulled from a working environment. It has been visually inspected and photographed. The orange finned pump body is in reasonable cosmetic shape, while the Franklin Electric motor shows notable wear — the insulation wrap on the motor housing is deteriorated and peeling, as visible in the photos. The NW flange ports and power cord appear intact. Cosmetic wear consistent with used industrial equipment should be expected. Please review all photos carefully and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
