VacFix® VP200 Hands-Free Radiotherapy Vacuum Pump

The VacFix® VP200 vacuum pump for radiotherapy is engineered for flexibility and everyday use. While smaller in size than the flagship VP300, it retains the same clinical focus on reproducible patient fixation. As a patient immobilization pump, the VP200 allows operators to achieve consistent cushion evacuation with minimal training, making it ideal for both established radiotherapy departments and smaller clinics.

Compact yet powerful, this compact medical vacuum operates through a reliable manual activation system, giving staff complete control over the immobilization process. Its design emphasizes portability, enabling the pump to be used across multiple treatment rooms or easily relocated as needed.

Built with durability in mind, the VP200 is constructed from high-quality components and tested for continuous clinical use. Its low-maintenance, oil-free design reduces downtime while delivering dependable suction performance. When used with VacFix® cushions and accessories, the VP200 provides a cost-effective and practical entry point into modern radiotherapy fixation equipment.

How It Works

To prepare an immobilization cushion, the operator positions the patient, connects the hose, and activates the VP200 to evacuate air. Negative pressure shapes the cushion securely around the patient’s anatomy, creating a stable mold. Once the desired firmness is reached, the pump is disengaged, locking the cushion into place for the duration of treatment. The process is straightforward and repeatable, ensuring reproducible positioning across multiple sessions.

Applications

• Daily Radiotherapy Treatments: Cushion evacuation for reproducible patient positioning.
• Multi-Room Clinics: Portable, battery-operated design supports use in several treatment areas.
• Small or Mobile Facilities: Compact build makes it ideal for limited space environments.
• Training and Education: Easy-to-use system suitable for staff training and demonstrations.
