RL-2 has been added to the RL line of vacuum pumps. The RL-2 is the smallest and lightest unit in the family; it weighs 3.8 kg (8.4 pounds). This pump can be used for small air conditioning units and has a capacity of 35 liters per minute. The company says the line's new design gives the units a trendy look, as well as making them ergonomic and lightweight. All of the line's pumps are stable during transport due to the low point of gravity, which makes it nearly impossible for them to tip over in the vehicle, states the manufacturer. Other models in the line include the RL-4, which has a capacity of 65 liters per minute and weighs 5.65 kg (12.5 pounds), and the RL-8, which has a capacity of 150 liters per minute and weighs 11.8 kg (26 pounds).
