Declaration of Incorporation
We, Edwards,
Manor Royal,
Crawley,
West Sussex, RH10 9LW, UK
declare under our sole responsibility, as manufacturer and person within the EU authorised
to assemble the technical file, that the machine(s)
to which this declaration relates is intended to be incorporated into other equipment and not to
function independently. The machine(s) must not be put into service until the equipment into
which it is incorporated has been brought into conformity with the provisions of the Machinery
Directive, 2006/42/EC.
The machine(s) is in conformity with the following standard(s) or other normative
document(s)
EN ISO 12100-2: 2003 Safety of Machinery. Basic Concepts, General Principles for
+ A1: 2009 Design. Technical Principals
EN1012-2:1997, A1: 2010 Compressors and Vacuum Pumps. Safety Requirements.
Vacuum Pumps
The relevant essential requirements of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC Annex 1 have been applied
and fulfilled so far as practicable for this partly completed machinery. The relevant technical
documentation has been compiled in accordance with Annex VII Part B. In response to a reasoned request
by the national authorities, Edwards Ltd undertakes to provide relev ant information on the partly
completed machinery (via email).
Note: This declaration covers all product serial numbers from the date this Declaration was
signed onwards.

CAUTION
WARNING
1Introduction
1.1Scope and definitions
This manual provides installation, operation, maintenance and storage instructions for the Edwards EXT70/200H and
EXT200/200H Split Flow Compound Molecular Pumps, abbreviated to EXT Split Flow Pump in the remainder of this
manual. The pump must be used as specified in this manual. Read this manual before installing and operating the
pump.
The EXT Split Flow Pumps are designed for use with an Edwards EXDC or EXC Controller. Read the instruction manual
supplied with the controller before attempting to install or operate the equipment. The controller manual contains
details of electrical installation.
Important safety information is highlighted as WARNING and CAUTION instructions; these instructions must be
obeyed. The use of WARNINGS and CAUTIONS is defined below.
Warnings are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in injury or death to
people.
Introduction
Cautions are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in damage to the equipment, associated
equipment and process.
The following warning labels are on the pump:
Warning - refer to accompanying documentation.
Warning - risk of electric shock.
Warning - hot surfaces.
Protective Conductor terminal.
The units used throughout this manual conform to the SI international system of units of measurement. Also
throughout this manual, wherever flow rates are specified, the abbreviation 'sccm' is used to mean standard
3
cm
min-1: this is a flow of 1cm3min-1 at an ambient temperature of 0 °C and a pressure of 1013 mbar (1.013 x 105 Pa).
If pumping hazardous gases or vapours, the customer must observe the safety recommendations
of the supplier of the gas or vapour.
Do not use the EXT70/70/200H to pump gases containing more than 20% oxygen. If gases containing more than
20% oxygen are pumped, the pump lubricant will polymerise and the pump may fail prematurely.
Note:Concentrations of gases may be modified by the compression of the pump.
The pumps are designed to pump the following residual gases normally used in high-vacuum systems:
Air Nitrogen Helium
Carbon monoxide Krypton Hydrogen
Neon Argon Butane
Ethane Propa ne
Methane Carbon dioxide
The pump can be used to pump oxygen and water vapour, subject to the following conditions:
Oxygen – The oxygen concentration must be less than 20% by volume.
Water vapour - Ensure that vapour does not condense inside the pump. Refer to Section 3.6.3.
If there is a requirement to pump a gas not in the list above, contact the supplier for advice. If the supplier is not
contacted, the warranty on the pump may be invalidated. The pumps are not suitable for pumping aggressive or
corrosive gases.
2.3Vent gas specification and vent control data
Although the pump may be vented to atmosphere, high relative humidity of the air may greatly increase the
subsequent pump-down time. To reduce pump-down times, vent the pump with dry, clean gases.
