"Medical" vacuum pump

I've got a "medical" vacuum pump for sale. Price is ~$40+ shipping. It's a good vacuum pump, rotary vane if I remember correctly (looks like one). I've used it for distillations in the past and it pulls a good vacuum.

Any specs for maximum pull?

I don't have the equipment for that unfortunately. Things like ethyl acetate, should be no problem. Acetophenone came off with little heating.

I don't need one, but I might suggest a picture of the machine and its sticker with all info like maker/model etc. Might pique the interest of more members
