Edwards RV8 Two Stage Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump – 6.0 CFM, 115/230V 1-Phase 50/60Hz (Factory Set to 115V for USA) (A65401906)
Edwards RV8 Two Stage Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump – 6.0 CFM, 115/230V 1-Phase 50/60Hz (Factory Set to 115V for USA) (A65401906)
The Edwards RV8 (part number A65401906) is a versatile two-stage oil-sealed rotary vane vacuum pump from the popular RV series. This single-phase model is factory set to 115V for USA operation (switchable to 230V) with 50/60 Hz compatibility, making it an excellent plug-and-play solution for North American laboratories, universities, and light industrial facilities.
With a pumping speed of 6.0 CFM (10.2 m³/h at 60 Hz) and an excellent ultimate vacuum of 2 × 10⁻³ mbar (1.5 × 10⁻³ Torr), the RV8 delivers a strong combination of throughput, vapor handling, and quiet performance in a compact package.
The RV series is known for its reliability, high vapor tolerance, and long service intervals, making the RV8 a popular choice for general laboratory and light industrial vacuum applications.
Key Features and Benefits
- Two-stage rotary vane design for good ultimate vacuum and excellent vapor handling
- Pumping speed: 6.0 CFM (10.2 m³/h) at 60 Hz
