Edwards EXS160 – dry screw vacuum pump
The EXS series uses the same screw technology as the GXS pumps but is designed for simplicity and robustness. The EXS160 reaches a typical maximum pumping speed of 160 m³/h and an ultimate pressure below 0.01 mbar; the motor power is 7.5 kW. A built-in frequency converter allows speed control and energy savings.Features
- Tapered screw with variable pitch (Quinby profile); rotors supported at both ends for very low vibration and reliable starting
- Non-contact labyrinth shaft seals with oil barrier; the shaft seal purge keeps oil out of the pumping chamber
- Constant cooling water flow; gas ballast adjustable by hand
- Modbus RTU as standard, digital and analogue inputs and outputs; optional communication cards for further fieldbuses
Typical applications
Edwards names lithium-ion battery production (electrode drying, electrolyte filling, formation), metallurgy (vacuum brazing, electron beam welding, nitriding, low-pressure carburising, sintering, investment casting, steel degassing), plasma processes, solar (crystal pulling, laminating), coating and the evacuation of vacuum chambers.Versions of the Edwards EXS160
