A two-stage positive displacement pump (1) is used in particular to operate in conjunction with a turbomolecular pump (2) that can be placed ahead of it in series. The two-stage positive displacement pump (1) is configured as a hybrid pump (3) that has on the medium-entry side a reciprocating pump (5) with a comparatively large displacement area (6), whereby its piston-cylinder space (7) is sealed off with respect to the crank area (8) by means of a sealing membrane (9). Also as a part of this two-stage positive displacement pump (1) which forms the hybrid pump (3), there is placed in series behind the reciprocating pump (5) a diaphragm pump (10), whose displacement area (11) is noticeably smaller compared to that of the reciprocating pump (5).
