The XDS-5 pump is a compact, reliable vacuum pump which is suitable for use on vapour handling processes. The XDS-5 pump is not suitable for use with explosive, toxic or corrosive substances, or substances that contain or produce particulates or powders. The XDS-5 pump is a dry vacuum pump, as all the bearings, with their hydrocarbon lubricant, are isolated from the vacuum space. The inlet of the pump is fitted with a removable inlet strainer which prevents the entry of debris into the pump. The pump is air-cooled by a fan mounted at the opposite end to the motor. The body of the pump includes a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll. The orbiting scroll is driven by the electric motor through an eccentric cam on the motor drive shaft. The movement of the orbiting scroll, meshed with the fixed scroll, forms successive crescent shaped volumes in the pump. Gas which enters the pump through the inlet is compressed by the movement of the orbiting scroll and swept towards the centre of the fixed scroll. The compressed gas enters the exhaust port near the centre of the stationary scroll and is exhausted from the pump through the outlet.

All of our equipment is used and reconditioned. Our technicians test all equipment to confirm that it operates properly and to the manufacturer’s specifications. While we can’t test for a specific analytical application, we will do our best to simulate the conditions under which the equipment will be run. If you have particular testing requirements or requests please let us know and we’ll work with you to make sure these requirements are addressed during testing.
