The Edwards RV Pump is a highly versatile and reliable solution for scientific and industrial applications, known for its low noise levels and high performance across a range of pumping modes. It has become the industry standard for scientific primary pumping applications, offering exceptional performance in both high vacuum and high throughput modes. This makes it ideal for analytical instruments, mass spectrometers, and other sensitive equipment.

Key Features:

• Ultra-Low Noise: The RV pump operates at 48 dBA at 50Hz, significantly quieter than conventional pumps, making it perfect for lab and research environments where noise control is important.
• Dual Mode Performance: It delivers excellent ultimate vacuum in high vacuum mode, while providing high throughput in another mode. This flexibility makes it suitable for both delicate and high-volume applications.
• Gas Ballast Control: The three-position gas ballast allows users to select the optimal pumping performance for their application, even while the pump is in operation.
• High-Quality Components: The pump is supplied with 1 liter of Ultragrade 19 oil, an inlet filter, and an O-ring for quick setup. PFPE for RV pumps must be purchased separately.
• Safety and Compliance: Approved to UL standards by an external test house, ensuring reliable performance and safety.

Applications:

• Analytical Instruments: Ideal for use with electron microscopes, mass spectrometers, and other precision instruments.
• Centrifuges and Ultra-High-Speed Applications: Suitable for demanding applications like high-speed centrifuges.
• Coating and Deposition: Used in various coating and thin film deposition processes.
• Freeze Drying & Distillation: Perfect for laboratory freeze-drying, distillation, extraction, and filtration.
• Solvent Recovery & Research: Effective for solvent recovery, research, and development applications.
• Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM): A reliable pump for SEM and FIB (focused ion beam) systems.
• Turbomolecular Pump Backing: Works effectively as a backing pump for turbomolecular pumps.
• Gas Bottle Filling & Leak Detection: Ideal for gas bottle filling, leak detection, and helium recovery.

Included:

• Free KF25 flexible stainless steel bellow (3.3 ft), clamps, and centering rings (valued at $219) for immediate use. (Mist filter not included.)
• Technical support and one-year warranty are covered by Edwards.

The Edwards RV Pump combines cutting-edge technology with reliability and ease of use, making it the perfect choice for research, laboratory applications, and high-precision equipment.
