Edwards nXDS6i Oil-Free Dry Scroll Vacuum Pump – 3.6 CFM (A73501983)
Edwards nXDS6i Oil-Free Dry Scroll Vacuum Pump – 3.6 CFM (A73501983)
The Edwards nXDS6i (part number A73501983) is a compact, oil-free dry scroll vacuum pump from the advanced nXDS series. With a pumping speed of 3.6 CFM (6.2 m³/h) at 60 Hz and an ultimate vacuum of 0.005 Torr (0.7 Pa), it delivers clean, reliable vacuum performance without oil contamination or backstreaming risks.
Ideal for smaller laboratory and analytical applications, the nXDS6i features hermetically sealed bearings, an integrated inverter drive, and quiet, efficient operation with long service intervals.
Key Features & Benefits
- Completely oil-free dry scroll technology – no oil changes required
- Compact and lightweight design for benchtop use
- Very quiet operation at only 52 dB(A)
- Hermetically sealed for ultra-clean vacuum environment
- Excellent water vapor handling with gas ballast
- Long tip seal life – up to 5 years in many applications
- Low power consumption and intelligent controls
- NW16 inlet and NW25 outlet flanges
