Edwards nES300 Ex – ATEX rotary vane pump of category 2
The nES300 Ex is the explosion-proof version of the nES300 from the Edwards nES series. It is marked in accordance with ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU with Ex II (i) 2 G b IIB+H2 T3 / (o) 2 G IIC T4 (10 °C < Ta < 40 °C) X – that is, internally (in contact with the process gas) for category 2 of explosion group IIB including hydrogen and externally for category 2 IIC. The pump delivers 240 m³/h at 50 Hz and 290 m³/h at 60 Hz and reaches 0.15 mbar without gas ballast. The motor delivers 7.5 kW at 50 Hz (230/400 V) and 9 kW at 60 Hz (460 V); the weight with oil filling is 200 kg.Use
The gases and vapours to be pumped should have an ignition temperature above 200 °C (temperature class T3 internal). Special conditions apply for safe operation (marking “X”), which are described in the Edwards operating instructions.Advice and service
