Performance is at the core of nXLi. The intelligent drive enables the system to achieve an enhanced performance plateau from single phase power supply, and a consistent worldwide operation from a 200 - 230 V (+/-10%) 50/60 Hz single phase supply. The choice of control options are either manual, simple remote or serial communications (RS485 with modbus command set). These may be utilised to provide real control for the system builder.

nXLi provides a small footprint with quiet operation making it a convenient and flexible high performing, yet compact, vacuum pump. The oil-free non-contacting pump mechanism will provide extended operation with maximum up time, up to five years service life, with zero maintenance and no oil to dispose of.

During the initial chamber pump down the nXLi is able to work harder than normal. The intelligent transient overload protection will allow a higher power draw for a short period of time for initial evacuation of the chamber from atmospheric pressure to operating pressure. This higher initial power boost enables the pump to overcome initial gas loads and once operating pressure is achieved less power is required.

nXLi is the latest addition to the Edwards intelligent pumping range and is the ideal dry pump for Scientific OEMs, LCMS end users, ICPMS end users and in applications where a consistent performance, control and reliability are essential.
