This Edwards nEXT930D turbo pump package deal with ISO-K 200 inlet flange includes an Edwards nXDS20i dry scroll roughing pump. Edwards nEXT930D turbo pumps with an ISO-K 200 flange have a pumping speed of 925 l/s and an ultimate pressure of 3.5 x 10
-9 mbar (2.6 x 10
-10 Torr). Included is an EPS 800 power supply with AC power cord, and a mounting bracket to affix the power supply directly onto the pump. Also included are a TAG (turbo & active gauge) controller with large LED display to show the pump's speed or vacuum pressure, along with its power supply and AC power cord. This package features a water-cooling kit to keep the turbo pump running cool. This turbo pump package deal does not include the roughing pump, roughing lines, vacuum chamber, pressure measurement gauges, or vent valves. Some upgrades might include: a TIC controller and TIC relay box to provide better system automation & control, a forced air-cooling kit, and extension cables to extend the distance between the pump, power supply, and controller. All these items are available and sold separately by Ideal Vacuum.
About the nEXT930D turbo pump with ISO-K 200 flange
Edwards nEXT930D turbomolecular high vacuum pumps with an ISO-K 200 inlet flange have a pumping speed of 925 liters per second (l/s) and an ultimate pressure of 3.5 x 10
-9 mbar (2.6 x 10
-9 Torr). This nEXT930D pump has an ISO KF-40 exhaust foreline flange. Optional inlet screens (coarse or fine) are available. The nEXT930D series turbo pumps require 48 VDC input power at a maximum of 600 Watts (normal operation is typically less than 500 Watts). A permanently attached 0.6 meter long 48 volt power cable and a 0.95 meter long control cable are standard to the pump. nEXT930D turbo pumps have a compact onboard controller with RS232, RS485, & USB interfaces, five status LED's, and the possibility to control either an air-cooling fan or solenoid vent valve (a "Y" connector is available for connecting both a fan and valve). The USB port allows the use of Edwards nST2 PC software (free download from link below). This nEXT930D turbo pump has Edwards part number B8K200D00.
About the nXDS20i dry scroll roughing pump
The Edwards nXDS20i dry scroll roughing/backing pump has a pumping speed of 13 cfm (22.0 m3/hr), and an ultimate vacuum of 0.022 Torr (0.030 mbar). It has KF-25 (NW25) inlet and outlet ports. It requires 100-240 VAC single phase power and has a standard C14 power connector. The nXDS20i draws 10A@120VAC (6A@240 VAC). The nXDS20i scroll pump produces a noise level up to twenty times less than competing products at 52 dB(A). The pump has an onboard inverter controller which allows the pump to be controlled either manually with easy to use push buttons, or remotely via its RS232/RS485 interface when connected to an Edwards TIC or TAG controller, or a user supplied software interface. The pump comes with an AC power cord. This Edwards nXDS20i dry scroll pump has part number A73801983.
About the EPS 800 power supply
The Edwards EPS 800 is an 800 Watt power supply, provides 48 VDC output at a maximum of 17.1 Amps, and is designed to power nEXT series turbo pump models nEXT730D, nEXT930D, and nEXT1230H. It supplies 48 VDC clean fused power from a 100-240 VAC input source. A 2.5 meter long, 115 VAC AC power cord with US 5-15P plug is included. To mount the EPS 800 to the side of the turbo pump, this package deal also includes an adaptor mounting kit. The power supply connects directly to the pump's attached 48 VDC power cable. The EPS 800 power supply supercedes the (now discontinued) EPS 500 unit and has Edwards part number B8J200819.
About the TAG (turbo and active gauge) controller
The Edwards TAG (turbo & active gauge) controller comes with a 200-Watt external power supply and 2 meter long 115 VAC US power cord (5-15P to C13 connectors). The TAG is a small low-cost 24 VDC pumping system controller, is ideal for use on benchtops or mobile platforms where space is limited, and is suitable for a wide range of vacuum applications. The TAG provides a serial interface for displaying the turbo pump's speed of any nEXT turbo pump, can power the nEXT85D, nEXT240D, nEXT300D, or nEXT400D turbo pumps, and can control an Edwards APG, AIM, ASG, or WRG vacuum gauge. The TAG's push button interface allows the user to easily switch between pump speed or vacuum pressure, shown on the large LED display. The Edwards part number for this TAG controller is D39592000 and its power supply is D39592800.
About the water-cooling kit
The Edwards water cooling unit slides into a slot in the base of the pump and is secured with 4 M4 screws. It has push-fit connectors for the supply and discharge hoses (6mm OD plastic hose). The hose connections may be unscrewed and removed to make use of the integrated G 1/8” threads. Water-cooling is recommended on larger turbo pumps to better regulate the pump's temperature and required when using a flange heater band with a CF flanged pump. Edwards nEXT turbo pumps also benefit from water cooling when there are high gas throughputs, cyclic operations and/or high ambient temperatures. In order to ensure long trouble-free operation, the cooling water must be clean and not contain any oils, greases or suspended solids. This water cooling kit has Edwards part number B8J200820.
