Important safety information is highlighted as WARNING and CAUTION instructions; you must obey these instructions. The use of WARNINGS and CAUTIONS is defined below.
WARNING
Warnings are given where failure to observe the instruction could result
in injury or death to people.
CAUTION
Cautions are given where failure to observe the
instruction could result in damage to the
equipment, associated equipment and process.
The units used throughout this manual conform to the SI international system of units of measurement.
Pressures are stated as absolute pressures throughout this manual.
Warning - hot surfaces.

1.2 Description

The XDS35i pump is shown in Figure 1. Refer to Figure 1 for item numbers in brackets in the following descriptions.
The XDS pump is a compact, reliable vacuum pump which is suitable for use on vapour handling processes. The XDS pump may be used for some pumping applications involving corrosive substances and particulates; for information on pumping flammable gases, please refer to Section 4.5 and contact BOC Edwards for any further assistance.
The body of the pump includes a fixed scroll and an orbiting scroll. The orbiting scroll is controlled by the electric motor through an eccentric cam on the motor drive shaft. The movement of the orbiting scroll, meshed with the fixed scroll, forms successive crescent shaped volumes in the pump. Gas that enters the pump through the inlet is compressed by the movement of the orbiting scroll and swept towards the centre of the fixed scroll. The compressed gas enters the exhaust port near the centre of the stationary scroll and is exhausted from the pump through the outlet.

1.3 Gas ballast control

XDS Dry Pump
To pump high vapour loads, gas ballast can be delivered into the pump to prevent condensation of the vapour carried by the pumped gases.
Air can be introduced to the low vacuum stages through the gas ballast control (2). Alternatively, an inert gas such as nitrogen can be supplied through a suitable external valve and by using the appropriate adaptor, available as an accessory, refer to Section 7.3.3.
The gas ballast control has three positions:
• Closed (position '0')
• Low flow (position 'I')
• High flow (position 'II')

1.4 Construction

The pump scrolls are made of anodised aluminium. The motor housing is aluminium. All surfaces of the pump which are exposed to the pumped gases are free from copper, zinc and cadmium.

3.1 Safety

WARNING
Obey the safety instructions given
below and take note of appropriate
precautions. If you do not, you can
cause injury to people and damage to
equipment.
WARNING
The BOC Edwards XDS35i pump is
not recommended for pumping
explosive gases or hazardous
substances.
You must ensure that the XDS35i pump is suitable for your application. If you have any doubt about the suitability of the XDS35i pump for your application, refer to the BOC Edwards guidelines on vacuum pump and vacuum system safety (see associated publications at the end of the contents list at the front of this manual).
• Loose slings should not be used to lift the XDS35i.
WARNING
Take care when moving the pump
into position. The pump's weight
makes it difficult to slide and
movement should be attempted
using two people.
• Wear the appropriate safety clothing when you come into contact with contaminated components. Dismantle and clean contaminated components inside a fume cupboard.
• Vent and purge your vacuum system before you start installation work.
• Ensure that the installation technician is familiar with the safety procedures that relate to the products handled by the pumping system.

The mass of the pump is
approximately 48 kg.
• Mechanical lifting equipment should be attached to the lifting eye on the pump.

3.2 System design considerations

Consider the following points when you design your pumping system:
Use a suitable valve to isolate the pump from your vacuum system if you need to allow the pump to warm up before pumping condensable vapours or if you need to maintain vacuum when the pump is switched off.
Avoid high levels of heat input into the pump from the process gases, otherwise the pump may overheat, and cause the thermal overload device to open.
If you use the pump in a high ambient temperature and have a high gas throughput, the temperature of the pump body may approach 70 ºC and you must fit suitable guards to prevent contact with hot surfaces.

Make sure that the exhaust pipeline cannot become blocked. If you have an exhaust isolation valve, make sure that you cannot operate the pump with the valve closed.
Provide for a purge of inert gas when you shut down the pumping system, to dilute dangerous gases to safe concentrations.

3.3 Unpack and inspect

WARNING
Use suitable lifting equipment
to move the XDS35i pump.
The mass of the pump is
approximately 48 kg.
Remove all packing materials, remove the pump from its packing box, remove the protective covers from the inlet and outlet ports and inspect the pump. If the pump is damaged, notify your supplier and the carrier in writing; state the item number of the pump together with your order number and your supplier's invoice number. Retain all the packing materials for inspection. Do not use the pump if it is damaged. If the pump is not to be used immediately, replace the protective covers. Store the pump in suitable conditions, as described in Section 6.1. Refer to Section 6.2 for disposal of materials.
If your pump will be located inside an enclosure, make sure that there is adequate ventilation at both ends of the pump, so that the ambient temperature around the pump does not exceed 40 ºC. There must be a minimum space of 25 mm between the pump and the enclosure walls.

an exhaust silencer (refer to
CAUTION
Section 7.3.2) or connect to an
appropriate exhaust line.
If using an overload circuit breaker it must be of a
time lag type because of high start up current.
CAUTION
If using an earth leakage device e.g. an RCD, use at
least a 30 mA rated unit to avoid trip during start
up.
The pump will automatically restart after restoration of the power supply following power failure.
Make the electrical connections to the pump motor with an IEC60320 cable socket (C19) that satisfies your local electrical standards.
Refer to Figure 1. Before you connect the pump to your vacuum system, remove the plastic cap from the inlet and the exhaust, and ensure that the inlet strainer is fitted to the pump inlet port. Use appropriate NW40 vacuum fittings for connection to your system.
Take note of the following information when you connect the pump to your vacuum system.
• To minimise noise and exhaust emissions, it is recommended that the pump is connected to an exhaust line or a silencer (refer to Section 7.3.2).
• For optimum pumping speeds, ensure that the pipeline connected to the pump inlet is as short as possible and has a suitable internal diameter.
• Support the vacuum pipeline to prevent loading of the coupling joints.
Issue A Nov 02
12
XDS Dry Pump
• If necessary, incorporate flexible bellows in your system pipelines to reduce the transmission of vibration and to prevent loading of the coupling joints. If you use flexible bellows, you must ensure that you use bellows that have a maximum pressure rating which is greater than the highest pressure that can be generated in your system. We recommend that you use BOC Edwards bellows.
• Incorporate an inlet isolation valve in the pipeline from the vacuum system to the pump, so that you can isolate the vacuum system from the pump when it is switched off and prevent the suckback of process gases and debris into the vacuum system.
• Ensure that the sealing surfaces are clean and scratch-free.
PAGE
13
INSTALLATION
We recommend that you use an exhaust extraction system suitable for use with all of the process gases you will pump. Ensure that the exhaust extraction system cannot become blocked or obstructed when the pump is operating.
A small amount of tip seal wear product may collect in the exhaust duct of the pump. The dust may be blown out with the initial burst of air after the pump has been vented. This is quite common and the amount of dust seen will reduce over time.

3.7 Leak test the system

After you have installed the XDS pump, leak test the system and seal any leaks found.

4OPERATION

4.1 Use of gas ballast control

You can use the gas ballast control to optimise the performance of the scroll pump for your application. The performance characteristics of the pump with the different ballast settings are shown in Section 2.2.2. You can change the position of the gas ballast control when the pump is off or when the pump is operating.
4.1.1 Gas ballast control
Use the gas ballast control to change the amount of air introduced into the final stage of the pump. Use of gas ballast will reduce the condensation of vapours in the pump; the condensates would contaminate the pump. You can turn the gas ballast control to select one of the three positions, as follows:

4.2 Start up procedure

WARNING
Ensure that your system design does
not allow the exhaust pipeline to
become blocked.
CAUTION
A fine black dust may be emitted from the exhaust
of the scroll pump during start up, particularly when the pump is new or if new tip seals are fitted. Refer to Section 5.6 for further information when
fitting new tip seals.
Use the procedure below to start up the pump:
1. Ensure that any vacuum system isolation valve is closed (if fitted).
2. Connect a suitable lead from the power supply to the electrical socket at the side of the pump.
PAGE
15
OPERATION
To select no gas ballast, turn the control position to '0'. Use this setting:
• to achieve ultimate vacuum
• to pump dry gases.
To select low flow gas ballast, turn the control to position 'I'. Use this setting:
• to pump low concentrations of condensable vapours
• to decontaminate the pump.
To select high flow gas ballast, turn the control to position 'II'. Use this setting:
• to pump high concentrations of condensable vapours
• to clear excess vapours after processing.
3. Switch on the electrical supply to the pump, using the on / off switch on the motor.
4. Always use the on / off switch to start / stop the pump.
5. Open the vacuum system isolation valve (if fitted).

4.3 To achieve ultimate vacuum

In order to achieve the best possible vacuum, the pump should be operated with the gas ballast control on position '0'. However, if the pump, or elements of the vacuum system it is attached to, are new or have been newly fitted, some atmospheric moisture may be present. If atmospheric moisture is present, run the pump with the gas ballast control in position 'I' or 'II' for 20 minutes before switching to position '0'. If moisture is allowed to remain, the performance of the pump will be impaired.

4.4 To pump condensable vapours

PAGE
16
Select a suitable gas ballast setting (gas ballast control in position 'I' or 'II') when there is a high proportion of condensable vapours in the process gases. This
OPERATION
will assist the vapours to pass through the pump without condensing and keep the pump performance from degrading.

4.5 To pump flammable gases

The XDS35i pump must not be used in an area where flammable gases, vapours or dust are present or could be present.
When using the XDS pump for pumping flammable gases and/or vapours the pump mechanism must be considered to be a source of ignition.
The following actions must be taken to ensure that
the gas being pumped stays out of the flammable
WARNING
Do not use the XDS pump for
pumping flammable gases, gas
mixtures or vapours that are within
their flammable range.
CAUTION
range.
• Ensure the system is leak tight.
• Dilute any flammable gases or vapours by using an inert gas purge (e.g. N
) to the pump
2
inlet and/or gas ballast (accessory available) to reduce their concentration in the pump and exhaust line to less than one quarter of their published lower explosive limits (lel).
• Prevent the condensation of flammable vapours within the pump mechanism and exhaust line by using an inert gas purge to the pump gas ballast connection.
• The inert gas purge should be switched on to remove air from the pump and exhaust before the process starts. The purge flow can be switched off at the end of the process only after any remaining flammable gases or vapours have been purged from the pump and exhaust line.
• If liquids that produce flammable vapours could be present in the pump foreline then the inert gas purge to the XDS pump should be left on all the time this liquid is present. Flammable liquids could be present in the foreline as a result of condensation or may be carried over from the process.
• When calculating the flow rate of inert gas required for dilution, consider the maximum flow rate for the flammable gases/vapours that could occur. For example, if a mass flow controller is being used to supply flammable gases to the process, you should assume a flow rate for flammable gases that could arise if the mass flow controller is fully open. The inert gas purge flow rate should be continually measured and if the flow rate falls below that required, then the flow of flammable gases or vapours to the pump must be stopped.

6. Place the fixed scroll assembly on a flat surface so that the scroll is facing upwards.
7. Remove the tip seals. Dispose of all waste materials in accordance with the instructions given in Section 6.2. If the pump has been used for anything other than clean applications, go to step 8; if not move straight on to step 10.
8. Loosen the three screws that secure the fixed scroll into the fan cowl. Remove the gas ballast control knob and spring. Remove the exhaust flange. Disconnect the wires going to the thermal snap switch.
9. Place the scroll downwards taking care not to damage the tops of the tip seal walls. Remove the exhaust valve cap and lift out the exhaust spring and valve, if they have not come out when removing the valve cap. Replace the spring and valve pad.
10. Make sure there is no debris visible on the inside of the scrolls, especially in the tip seal slot. Wipe with a soft, dry, lint free cloth to remove any dust etc. Avoid excessive abrasive cleaning to maintain the PTFE layer that was deposited by the tip seal on the scrolls during previous running. This will minimise the dust generation and running in period on re-starting the pump.

sections and the orbiting scroll tip seal must be cut into 3 sections. Each scroll tip seal groove has indicator marks to show where the tip seal must be cut (refer to Figure 10).The seals have a sealing face and the opposite face has minute grooves. Ensure that the grooved side of the seal is fitted downwards into the scroll, so that the sealing face is upwards. Start at the centre of the orbiting scroll and fit the seal into the groove (refer to Figure 9). The seal should be as close to the end of the groove as possible. When the indicator mark is reached, cut the seal to the mark. This allows an area into which the seal can expand. Repeat for all sections in both scrolls. Ensure that the tip seal is pushed fully home, particularly at the pinch-points, with finger pressure before reassembly.
12. Reassemble, making sure that the tip seals do not fall out. Reconnect the fan connector, then refit the fixed scroll assembly taking care to tighten the six fixing screws progressively and evenly.
13. Some period of running-in may be required before optimum performance is reached. Depending on the application, the vacuum achieved directly following a tip seal replacement may be sufficient for your requirements. Typically, this can be up to a decade more than the final vacuum achievable with a bedded in tip seal. During run in, deposits of tip seal dust will be produced. Ensure the exhaust is connected to a silencer or an exhaust line to collect tip seal deposit, refer to Section 7.3.2 for further information. If possible, occasional venting through the gas ballast control or valve on the inlet is recommended.

5.7 Test the motor condition

CAUTION
Do not flash test the XDS35i or damage to the
inverter may result.
Test the earth continuity and the insulation resistance of the pump motor, in accordance with local regulations for the periodic testing of electrical equipment.
We recommend that the earth continuity is less than 0.1 than 2M
If the pump fails these tests, you must contact BOC Edwards
