Features and benefits

Exceptional performance as standard

Wide Operational Pressure Range

Turbomolecular vacuum pumps can operate across a wide pressure range, from high (HV) to ultra-high vacuum levels (UHV).
Performing reliably even at low pressures makes them suitable for a diverse range of applications across analytical instruments.

Energy Efficient

By combining a number of discrete vacuum pumps into a single split flow pump, not only is space saved, but power consumption can also be reduced.

Versatility

Requiring far less real-estate than multiple stand-alone turbomolecular pumps opens up new opportunities in how you incorporate your vacuum system.
Compact and adaptable, nEXT Split Flow pumps are ideal for many analytical instruments.

High Compression Ratios

Achieve and maintain desired vacuum levels effortlessly.
nEXT Split Flow turbomolecular vacuum pumps can offer high compression ratios (when necessary), efficiently removing gas molecules from your system (and keeping them out) ensuring optimal performance for your critical applications.

Customisable Configuration

Tailored to fit your specific requirements.
Our nEXT Split Flow turbomolecular vacuum pumps offer flexible configuration options, allowing you to choose the number, performance, and arrangement of inlet ports, ensuring compatibility with your unique setup.

Seamless Integration

Experience effortless integration with your existing vacuum systems.
Your vacuum solution features compatible flange connections, control interfaces, and communication protocols, enabling easy installation and integration with other vacuum equipment.

Reliability and Durability

Built to withstand demanding environments.
nEXT Split Flow pumps are designed to provide long-lasting performance. Their robust construction utilises high-quality materials and advanced engineering, ensuring reliability and minimising maintenance intervals.

Cost effective

The ability to fine tune vacuum performance on a granular level reduces long term consumption costs.
Additionally initial capital costs for split flow vacuum systems are generally lower than purchasing multiple stand-alone turbomolecular pumps, meaning you can have a vacuum system designed specifically for your purpose, with a lower cost of ownership and reduced development times.

User service capability

All nEXT turbo pumps are serviceable.
In the case of nEXT Split Flow pumps, both the oil cartridge and the bearing can be serviced by an OEM service engineer or an end user. The oil cartridge can be exchanged every two years using nothing more complicated than a pin spanner and takes two minutes. The bearing is a little more complicated requiring a tool kit available from Edwards, but any mechanically competent person will easily be able to perform an exchange on a four-year cycle. Don’t fancy it? – send it back to us and we’ll do it or offer you an exchange pump.
