Edwards Speedivac E2M8

This used Edwards Speedivac E2M8 two stage rotary vane vacuum pump provides a step up in pumping speed compared to smaller models in the Speedivac line, while retaining the same reliable oil sealed design. The pump has been tested for function and shows the expected cosmetic and operational wear of a unit that has served in an active lab or production environment. Its two stage construction allows it to reach lower ultimate pressures suitable for a wider variety of vacuum tasks. The E2M8 is frequently used to back diffusion and turbomolecular pumps, as well as to directly service vacuum ovens, degassing chambers, and filtration setups that need higher throughput than smaller pumps can provide. Its added capacity makes it a favorite in labs running larger vacuum systems or multiple points of use from a single backing pump. The rugged build of the Speedivac series means many of these units remain serviceable well beyond their original installation. This pump is well suited for laboratories, research facilities, and vacuum system integrators looking for a higher capacity used pump at a fraction of new pricing. Buyers are advised to inspect oil condition and gaskets before returning the unit to continuous duty, and it is sold as functional used equipment.
