TAG Turbo and active gauge controller

Edwards Turbo and Active (TAG) controller is a small low cost pumping system controller, suitable for a wide range of vacuum applications, and compatible with all Edwards EXT and nEXT turbomolecular pumps. The large LED display shows the pump speed or vacuum pressure, and an easy to use push button interface enables ease of operation and control.

The TAG controller will also run a backing pump, air vent valve, an air cooler and an Edwards active gauge, making the TAG a versatile system controller.

This compact 24 V controller is ideal for use on bench tops or suitable mobile platforms where space is limited, yet functionality and reliability are essential. 

NOTE: TAG controller does not contain an in-built power source, a 24 V power supply is available from Edwards or users must supply their own.

• Compatible with all Edwards 24V turbopumps enabling pump control and speed display
• Start/stop control of a backing pump for full system control (external relay may be required)
• Turbomolecular pump start options: start with backing pump, start after time delay or start at pressure set point
• Vent valve control options: controlled vent from full speed, vent from half speed or no vent
• Pressure display from a compatible active gauge in mbar, Torr or Pa
