B800-00-880 Issue A
7.4.3 WCX water-cooler
A water-cooler can be fitted to the nEXT pump refer to Section 2.5 to check the suitability of the cooling-water
supply.
7.4.4 BX bakeout band
A BX bakeout band accelerates the degassing of the pump to enable it to achieve lower pressures. It may also be used
to protect the pump from condensation of contaminants. The bakeout bands are available in 110 – 120 V or 220 – 240
V versions.
Note: The bakeout band is only for use with CF variants
7.4.5 TAV vent-valve and vent-port adaptor
Two solenoid-operated vent-valves are available for system venting. The valves are 24 V d.c., normally-open and can
be driven by the Controller. 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 your vacuum
system.
TAV5 is suitable for smaller vacuum systems. TAV6 has a higher conductance and is suitable for larger vacuum systems
(typically with volume greater than 10 litres).
7.4.6 VRX vent-restrictor
Use a VRX fixed orifice vent-restrictor to restrict flow of vent gas into the pump. You can fit a VRX vent-restrictor to
the inlet of a TAV5 or TAV6 vent-valve or to a PRX10 purge-restrictor. Refer to Table 21 for information on the
selection of the correct VRX vent-restrictor and to Table 32 for the item numbers of the vent-restrictors available.
