Description
Edwards RV 3 Two-Stage Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump | USA Lab
The Edwards RV Series is the benchmark in small oil-sealed two-stage rotary vane vacuum pumps. Built from 80+ years of engineering, RV pumps deliver excellent ultimate vacuum, strong pumping speed, and superior vapor handling with quiet 57 dB(A) operation.
A universal motor (100–200V, 50/60 Hz) and an automatic inlet valve provide best-in-class anti-suckback protection and global compatibility. Each pump ships with an initial charge of ULTRAGRADE™ Performance 19 oil for immediate commissioning.
Ideal for mass spectrometry (GC/MS, LC/MS, ICP/MS), electron microscopy (SEM/TEM), rotary evaporation, glove boxes, R&D chambers, turbomolecular backing, and industrial/chemical processes.
Freight items may be non-returnable once installed. Please review specifications before ordering.
Additional handling fees may apply for liftgate or residential delivery.
