1Introduction

1.1 Scope 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).

2.2 Pumping media

Vent dangerous gases and gas mixtures safely. Do not expose people to these gases.
Do not use Split Flow Pumps to pump explosive gas mixtures as the pumps are not suitable for this purpose.
If pyrophoric gases are pumped then the customer must supply adequate dilution with an inert gas.
It is the customer’s responsibility to leak check the system to ensure process gases cannot escape to the atmosphere and cause a hazard.
Gases pumped from different inlets may combine to cause dangerous mixtures.

CAUTION
WARNING
Technical data
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.

2.3 Vent 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.
Table 2 - Vent gas and vent control data
Vent gas Dry air, nitrogen, argon or other inert gases
Maximum dew point at atmospheric pressure -22 °C
Maximum size of particulate 1
Maximum concentration of oil 0.1 parts per million
Time for rotational speed to reach 50% > 15 sec
Maximum vent gas pressure < 0.5 bar gauge (7 psig, 0.5x10
* If using pressures in excess of this figure, please consult Edwards.
