Edwards to launch nXDS dry scroll vacuum pumps

Published: 2-Mar-2012

Pumps are oil-free and have improved tip seal and bearing life


Edwards, a global leader of vacuum and abatement technology, is launching the nXDS dry scroll vacuum pumps in April, which are expected to set new standards for dry pumping in laboratories.

The nXDS is an oil-free vacuum pump that has no lubricants in the vacuum space. It also has improved tip seal and bearing life, which will benefit users owing to its low maintenance requirements. The nXDS is fully serviceable in the field, resulting in low downtime and an overall low cost of ownership.

Edwards says the intelligent drive electronics of the nXDS reduce power consumption and deliver exceptional pumping speeds and ultimate pressures with low acoustic noise levels, making it an ideal ‘fit and forget’ pump for the laboratory.

‘The new generation of dry scroll pumps is a major step forward for vacuum pumping in scientific markets,’ says David Steele, Edwards’ market sector manager.

‘There are four pumps in the range, which have excellent pumping speeds with class leading ultimate vacuum levels. They provide high performance with increased reliability and less maintenance than alternative pumps, which results in less downtime and low cost of ownership.’
