Edwards TIC Turbo Instrument Controllers are a series of 100W compact controllers which can be used with any Edwards nEXT turbo pump. The TIC connects to, and controls, the turbo pump through the pump's attached DB15 serial cable. Through the same cable, the TIC is able to supply 24 VDC pump power to the smaller nEXT pumps. TIC controllers feature a large, clear graphics display, easy-to-use control interface via a touch sensitive keypad, and a DB9 RS232/485 interface for control and data monitoring on a remote PC with user supplied software.
