The nXDS6i is the next generation in completely oil free, dry scroll pumps and replaces the XDS5. nXDS improves on legacy XDS pumps by offering increased pumping speeds, combined with lower ultimate pressures, lower power consumption and lower noise. Gas ballast allows for pumping of condensable vapours including, water, solvents, dilute acids and bases. nXDS pumps also feature the latest in tip seal technology giving significantly longer life between tip seal changes. Integrated inverter drive with auto sensing voltage input delivers optimized pumping performance globally. nXDS pumps are designed to be completely field serviceable.

The nEXT240D is a hybrid bearing compound turbopump available with either an ISO100 or a CF100 inlet flange and has a N2 pumping speed of 240ls-1. nEXT pumps combine our proven bearing technology (oil lubricated ceramic lower bearing with dry permanent magnetic upper bearing), an improved rotor design with a new molecular drag stage to deliver improved pumping speed and compression ratios, and true user serviceability. They feature 24V to 48Vd.c. sensor less motors with a built in drive that is fully compatible with our range of TAG and TIC controllers. They are available pre-set for either 80W or 160W maximum power, the former enabling use with our 100W TIC controllers are also recommended for pumping Argon, but with a longer ramp time to full operating speed. A basic pump system would require a nEXT240D pump, a TAG or TIC controller, either an air or water cooling accessory and a suitable backing pump.

The STP-iX455 turbo-molecular pump features an innovative, magnetic bearing and motor drive system, providing a 50% reduction in vibration compared to previous generation turbo pumps. An integrated controller eliminates the need for a conventional, rack-mounted controller and interconnecting cables, and does not require water cooling. The pump features 450 ls-1 pumping speed for nitrogen. The STP-iX455 is an excellent fit for electron microscope, metrology, lithography and other vibration sensitive applications.

The compact water-cooled Diffstak pumps with an integral cooled baffle offer exceptionally clean pumping with very low backstreaming, reduced outgassing, and a reduction in the number of elastomer seals required for installation. The Edwards Diffstak 63 (ISO63 inlet) design has been proven over many years with thousands of pumps installed. This pump has a manually operated high vacuum isolation valve and is supplied with: NW10 elbow, NW10 centering-ring, NW10 clamp, water pipe couplings and ferrules, inlet ISO63 Co-Seal.
