These rechargeable in-line traps effectively block oil backstreaming from mechanical pumps. Any mechanically pumped system, even one with a turbo pump, should have a foreline traps. The trap is placed in the foreline between the roughing pump and the diffusion or turbo pump. It uses a disposable, oxygen-free copper maze absorbent which requires no liquid nitrogen and will not hold water. Typically the maze is replaced every 1-2 years. The seamless body is available in aluminum.
