Used EDWARDS E2M18 #9135877 for sale

EDWARDS E2M18 is a robust, reliable and efficient industrial vacuum pump. It is an oil sealed rotary vane pump that is capable of producing vacuum pressures to 29 mbar (430 torr) and is capable of delivering a maximum flow rate of 48 m³/h. EDWARDS E 2M 18 is suitable for a wide range of applications, from drying and degassing, to laboratory vacuum filtration and vacuum metallurgy. It can be used in both continuous and intermittently operated processes and is designed to operate for prolonged periods without attention. E 2 M 18 features an integrally cast aluminium casing that contains all the necessary parts of the pumping equipment, including two compression chambers, two rotors, two paired mechanical seals and a hydrodynamic bearing system. The pump is capable of continuous operation up to 1,500 hours dependant on regular maintenance and oil changes. It also features an automatic gas ballast valve which regulates the proportion of gas introduced into the compression chambers. This helps to prevent the formation of condensates during the compression process, ensuring that the pump is not damaged and efficient operation is maintained. The lubrication unit of E 2M 18 is integrated into the pump casing, with the lubricant being sealed into the compression chambers. The mechanical seals provide an effective vacuum seal and prevent external contamination of the lubricant, while the hydrodynamic bearing machine ensures that the rotors are supported correctly, with minimal vibration and noise. The lubricant also helps to reduce wear on the pumps pistons and other components, enabling E2M18 to operate for prolonged periods without attention. EDWARDS E 2 M 18 can be connected to a variety of vacuum accessories and is compatible with a wide range of piping systems. It is also designed for easy installation and can be connected to a power supply either directly or via a cord reel. EDWARDS E2M18 is a highly reliable and efficient vacuum pump and is especially suited for demanding applications in which a steady, reliable level of vacuum must be maintained.
