Edwards lanceert nieuwe variant van XDS-reeks scroll-compressors voor agressievere scheikundige toepassingen

CRAWLEY, England–(BUSINESS WIRE)—Edwards heeft een speciale variant van zijn XDS-reeks drooglopende scroll-compressors gelanceerd. De nieuwe pompen zijn geschikt voor agressievere toepassingen. De scroll-compressors van het type XDS-C zijn uitgerust met pads voor een gasballastventiel een uitlaatventiel van Chemraz en roestvrijstalen uitlaatflenzen. Dankzij deze nieuwe kenmerken kunnen de scroll-compressors worden toegepast in situaties waar standaard fluorelastomere ventielpads kunnen worden aangetast door de rondgepompte stof, wat leidt tot snelle slijtage.

De drooglopende scroll-compressors XDS35iC en XDS45iC, die respectievelijk een pieksnelheid van 35 en 40 m 3  H-1 hebben, kunnen 240 gram waterdamp per uur verwerken en zijn ideaal voor stevige processen, inclusief natte scheikundige toepassingen zoals draaiverdampen en distillatie. Het eenvoudige ontwerp zorgt ervoor dat onderhoud slechts enkele minuten duurt, ten behoeve van maximale activiteit.

 

Edwards launches new variant to its XDS dry scroll pump range, for more aggressive chemical applications

CRAWLEY, England–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Edwards has launched a special variant to its XDS range of dry scroll pumps, suitable for use in more aggressive applications. The new XDS-C dry scroll pumps are fitted with a Chemraz® gas ballast non return valve pad and exhaust valve pad, and stainless steel exhaust flange. These new features enable them to be used on applications where the exposed standard fluoroelastomer valve pads may be affected by the media being pumped, and cause rapid deterioration.

XDS35iC and XDS45iC dry scroll pumps, with peak speeds of 35 and 40 m3h-1 respectively, can handle up to 240 grammes per hour of water vapour and are ideal in harsh processes including wet chemistry applications such as rotary evaporation and distillation processes. The simple single sided scroll design allows routine maintenance to be done in minutes for maximum up-time.

“We have seen an increase in demand for scroll pumps which are suitable for more challenging gases and vapour loads. The new XDS-C will ensure we can support our customers in more aggressive applications“, said David Goodwin, Product Manager Edwards. “We have also introduced two new spares kits which can be used in conjunction with a tip seal change kit to allow customers to upgrade existing XDS variants.”

Edwards’ XDS dry scroll pump provides an alternative to oil sealed rotary vane pumps and other dry technologies. It is lubricant free and hermetically sealed so it provides a totally clean and dry vacuum to prevent cross contamination. Unlike other scroll pumps, the bearings in the XDS range are isolated by the bellows, so that any aggressive chemicals involved in the process will not attack them.

The XDS35iC and XDS45iC extend the existing range of nXDS-C dry scroll pumps with pumping speeds from 6 to 40 m3h-1.
