18B4B
The Edwards 18B4B vapour booster pumps offer higher pumping speeds, of up to 6000 l s-1 at pressures intermediate between mechanical boosters and diffusion pumps. Vapour boosters from Edwards have been proven in the field for over 30 years. With a constant program of updates and modernisation, with input from OEM’s and end users, combined with inherent reliability, ease of use and tolerance to various inlet and exhaust pressures they have been used extensively in metallurgy and coating industries as well as other specialist applications.
