The Edwards RV series of oil sealed rotary vane pumps are unique in their capability to offer both high vacuum and high throughput performance, which combined with ultra-low noise levels and excellent gas ballast facility, makes them ideal for a wide range of applications and environments. These are available with speeds ranging from 3 to 12 m3/hr.

• High reliability – generous lubrication of moving parts.
• Safe process and systems – fast acting inlet valve for best in class anti‑suck back protection.
• Configured to meet your vacuum needs – mode selector and three position gas ballast
• No unplanned downtime – designed for easy maintenance.
• Better work environment – quiet running and intrusive frequencies minimised.
• Three position gas ballast allows either 60 g/hr or a class leading 220 g/hr (290 g/hr on RV12) of water vapour to be handled.
• Universal motor to cover the widest possible voltage and frequency range from a single variant.
• Smooth controlled inlet valve opening by oil pressure to eliminate pressure surges.
• Rapid closing inlet valve within 0.4 seconds of pump stopping.

The RV series of small oil sealed rotary vane pumps deliver excellent ultimate vacuum pressure, high pumping speeds and superior vapour handling capabilities with quiet operation.

All our RV pumps are quiet. Noise levels of 48 dBA 50Hz have been achieved by extensive work on the pump design, drive train and motor.

The pumps have the unique ability to deliver excellent ultimate vacuum in both high vacuum and high throughput modes with or without gas ballast. This gives the user an unrivalled opportunity to select the optimum pumping performance without compromising the application.

The simple to use mode selector and accessible, three-position gas ballast control allow the pump to be reconfigured at any time, even when the pump is running.
