Abstract

A multistage vacuum pump including a plural set of two lobe type vacuum pumps arranged on a common shaft for rotors and in a common casing. The adjacent pumps are connected in series with each other through a communicating passage formed in a pump casing. A solid material collector having a cooling device is provided in the communicating passage so that it is dismountable from the pump casing. A solid component in a compressed gas is forcibly produced by and adhered to the solid material collector. Thus, it is not necessary to disassemble the pump casing for cleaning the same.
