My understanding is a rotary vane and a vacuum pump is basically the same thing. Look at the CFM and Max PSI on the specs of that pump. It is almost identical to the pump that I have been using for 3 years. My system works great, and has yet to need any work other than a set of vane which I put in myself just for preventive reason the pump was still working fine. I pump to a double membrane diffuser 1100 feet from my pump. It uses very little electricity . Here is a picture of how I set it up.
