HT20B

Edwards HT20B (ANSI20/ISO630 inlet) diffusion pump is designed for all light and heavy duty industrial applications. The robust construction gives high pumping speed at high pressure.

Features and Benefits

  • Highest throughput of comparative sized pumps
  • Earliest crossover pressure of similar sized pumps
  • Excellent maximum backing line pressure and tolerance to gas surges
  • Comparative pumping speed to similar sized pumps
  • Integral cold cap for best performance and low backstreaming
  • Self fractionating for low ultimate pressures
Easy change heater assembly

Applications

  • Vacuum metallurgy
  • Distillation, drying and degassing
  • Thin film coating and metallizing
  • Large-scale research
