The RV series of small oil sealed rotary vane pumps deliver excellent ultimate vacuum pressure, high pumping speeds and superior vapor handling capabilities with quiet operation. The Edwards RV12 rotary vacuum pump offers a peak pumping speed of 10 cfm at 60 Hz and an ultimate pressure of 1.5x10-3 Torr (2x10-3mbar). The Edwards RV12 has a quiet noise level of 48 dBa and an operating temperature range of 12° – 40°C. The oil capacity of the Edwards RV12 is 1 liter, and the oil type for the Edwards RV12 is Ultragrade 19.

The Edwards RV12 is fully tested to perform at factory specifications before being shipped. This product is supplied with 1 liter of Ultra-grade 19 oil, inlet filter and O-ring. Fomblin must be purchased separately for PFPE RV pumps.

Key Features

High reliability – generous lubrication of moving parts.
Safe process and systems – fast acting inlet valve for best in class anti‑suck back protection.
Configured to meet your vacuum needs – mode selector and two position gas ballast.
No unplanned downtime – designed for easy maintenance.
Better work environment – quiet running and intrusive frequencies minimised.
Two position gas ballast allows either 60 g/hr or a class leading 220 g/hr (290 g/hr on RV12) of water vapor
Universal motor to cover the widest possible voltage and frequency range from a single variant.
Smooth controlled inlet valve opening by oil pressure to eliminate pressure surges.
Rapid closing inlet valve within 0.4 seconds of pump stopping.
