Vacuum pump question
Hi I was wondering if my Diaphragm Pump is suitable for vacuum distilling compounds with high boiling points, here's a link with some specs for it.

thank you for advice. I have a spending limit under 150 including shipping for if it's not good enough =\ thank you
p.s. i dont know anything about pumps yet which is why im asking. like for example what exactly would that pump bring water's boiling point down to?
Thank you!

wow thank god you told me............................................................................................. im definitely going with a
water aspirator then. Could you have any recommendations for me? I would have to somehow rig it to my outdoor hose because im way too broke right now
to afford a ~$140+ pump

If you are at all mechanically inclined, go for a refrigerator compressor; use the search engine. Aspirators are fine, but they use a lot of water,
an actual pump is so much more convenient.
