Parvalux has been at the cutting edge of the fight against COVID-19, designing medical pump motors. Parvalux reacted quickly to initial inquiries for pump motors because the need was understandably urgent.

When someone contracts the COVID-19 virus, it usually targets their respiratory system, specifically causing abnormalities in lung function. During the recent pandemic we have supported a number of ventilator and medical pump manufacturers as they undertake rapid prototyping and production of lifesaving equipment.

A ventilator maintains oxygen levels in patients with COVID-19 and a medical suction pump keeps their airways clear. Clearing the airway reduces the risk of ventilator associated pneumonia or ‘VAP’, which is itself a killer. Parvalux carries a range of suitable medical pump motors for this life-saving application.

If your need is urgent, we can react extremely quickly. Our standard geared motor drive range is fully customizable in our UK factories. We can also develop a motor specific to your available space envelope and specifications. In addition, we work with our customers’ engineers and our design team is well-versed in the very latest SolidWorks 3D CAD software.

Parvalux motors and gearboxes are also available through the global maxon distribution network. Your local maxon office can be found here.
