TAV vent valve and vent port adaptor (for nEXT85 turbo pump)

A solenoid operated vent valve is available for system venting.
The valve is a 24 V d.c., normally-open or normally-closed and can be driven by the turbo pump

podule. The solenoid valve is fitted in place of the manual valve, or alternatively can be fitted

with an adaptor (supplied with the valve) and can be used with any suitable NW10 flanged port

on the vacuum system.

Outlet mist filter(for E2M1.5 rotary vacuum pump)

The outlet mist filter separates and traps oil droplets in the pump outlet to prevent oil mist

discharge.
For all other accessories such as gauges, active cables and mains leads, refer to the T-Station 85

ordering information in the Edwards product catalogue.
