The EPX series uses a unique, patented, single-shaft regenerative/Holweck® stage mechanism that makes them capable of pumping from atmosphere to ultimate pressures of <1×10⁻⁴ mbar or <1×10⁻⁶ mbar depending on model. They are ideal for applications where a better base pressure is required than can be delivered by a typical primary pump and where otherwise a turbomolecular pump and primary pump would be required and also for applications that cycle frequently from atmosphere to low pressures as they can operate continuously at all inlet pressures.
