Applications

BOC Edwards’s high performance RV rotary pumps are used in many laboratory and industrial applications.

 

In its high vacuum mode an Edwards RV is ideal for analytical instruments, electron microscopes, physics research, backing turbo pumps, TV tube pumping and leak detection applications.

 

Configure the same pump for high throughput mode and it becomes optimized for mass spectrometer inlet systems, distillation and a large variety of common laboratory processes.

 

RV pumps have been successfully used in the following applications but if you would like to discuss how they could perform in your specific application please contact Edwards customer support.
