Hella UP5X vacuum pump

Description

From the available vacuum pumps, the Hella UP5x (or Hella UP5.0) is currently the best option. The more silent option is to implement an electric brake booster and second best option was the Mes Dea but that one is hard to find. More information can be found in the Vacuum pump for power brakes blogpost.

So the next best option is this Hella UP5x.

The Hella UP5x is the most powerful and at the same  time the most silent vacuum pump in the UP-series. Compared to the UP28, UP30 and UP32 it is:

• faster (70% of ambient pressure: t ≤ 4.4 s)
• less noisy (< 73 db (A))
• know for a long operating time (1500 hours)

Original pump made by Hella in Germany.

This last one is a used (well actually ‘new but taken off again’) pump. It has been installed in a vehicle but due to customer change of plans it never was actually really used on the road. Comes with quick connect.

Needs an external vacuum sensor/switch and buffer vacuum tank. Mating connector available.
