For the purposes of the FIRST competition, a device that creates a vacuum is not
considered to be a pneumatic device and is allowed. This includes, but is not limited to,
Venturi-type vacuum generators and off-the-shelf vacuum devices (as long as they are
powered by one of the Kit-of-Parts motors).
So yes, it appears that any vacuum components can be used, so long as they stay within other rules.
