Abstract

A dry vacuum pump, comprising a pump housing, which forms a plurality of suction chambers, wherein rotor elements are arranged in the suction chambers, in order to convey a pump medium from a high-vacuum-side inlet to an outlet. At least one rotor element is arranged in each suction chamber. The rotor elements are connected to a rotor shaft. The rotor shaft is supported by bearings, wherein a high-vacuum-side bearing is arranged in a cut-out. A sealing device is arranged between the high-vacuum-side bearing and at least one suction chamber adjacent to the high-vacuum-side bearing. The cut-out is connected, by means of a first channel, to a region of the dry vacuum pump in which there is a higher pressure than in at least one suction chamber adjacent to the high-vacuum-side bearing.
