Vacuum Nozzle Sizes

------Question for TV-1000 Please Put your question below------

Hello,

Can the dimensions of each vacuum nozzle be provided? Specifically the largest vacuum nozzle available for this product. Also, is there a maximum weight limit for the items that can be picked up by the vacuum nozzle (e.g. a large BGA package)?

Hello Garrett, welcome to the Techforum!

I was unable to find this information on the manufacturers website so I’ll need to contact our product specialist to see if we can get this information for you. Once we hear back from the manufacturer I’ll update you here.

Thank you for your patience. I have heard back from the manufacturer and they were able to provide the following information.

The TV-1000 comes with 9 tips:

Five bent probes:
3/32" (2.38mm) diameter Static Dissipative Buna-N vacuum cup.
1/8" (3.18mm) diameter Static Dissipative Buna-N vacuum cup.
3/16" (4.76mm) diameter Static Dissipative Buna-N vacuum cup.
1/4" (6.35mm) diameter Static Dissipative Buna-N vacuum cup.
