Introduction
Warning - Use protective equipment. RF Earth (ground).
The following warnings only appear in this manual:
Warning - Risk of explosion. Warning - Pressurised.
Safety data sheets for chemicals supplied by Edwards can be obtained by contacting Edwards or on www.edwardsvacuum.com.

1.2 Applications

GXS dry pumping systems are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications. Edwards has a dedica ted team of applications engineers who can help to determine the best dry pumping system for an application.
Warranties may be invalidated if the dry pumping system is used on an unsuitable application. If in doubt, contact Edwards.

1.3 Description

The GXS dry pumping systems range has been developed to meet the demanding requirements for process pumping solutions in industrial applications. The range sets new standards for harsh process capability, reliability and reduced cost of ownership in low footprint packages.
There are various different ways to control the dry pumping system and monitor status. The user can manually press controls on the front panel and monitor LEDs on the front and rear of the dry pumping system. The Edwards Pump Display Terminal (PDT) gives further functionality for set up and status monitoring. Alternatively the dry pumping system can be controlled using a distributed control system by connecting to the parallel interface by the MCM MicroTIM. There are also several serial interface options, including Ethernet connection.
A high flow purge / solvent flush kit is available as an option to clean the dry pumping system on ap plications where large quantities of dust and sticky deposits are encountered. The cleaning process is run while the dry pumping system is in Green Mode/Standby mode and is carried out without the need to remove the pump enclosure. A PDT is required to initiate the cleaning process, it controls a set sequence called DP Clean.

M588-00-880 Issue E

1.4 Priority of control

The dry pumping system can be controlled by a number of modules: the front control panel (refer to Figure 1), a Pump Display Terminal (PDT) or by the customer’s system through the MCM MicroTIM or one of the ser ial interf aces. Only one of these can have control of the dry pumping system at any one time. That is, once one of these has control of the dry pumping system, control requests from the others are denied. Control must be released by one module before control can be taken by a different module.
There are LEDs to indicate control:
The LED on the front control panel illuminates when control is taken by the front panel, refer to Figure 1,
item 6.
The LED on the rear of the pump illuminates when control is taken by the MicroTIM, refer to Figure 3, item 9.The local control LED on the PDT illuminates when control is taken by that particular PDT, refer to
Appendix A2.
The PDT display also indicates which system is in control.

1.5 Active utility control / standby

Introduction
The Active Utility Control (Green Mode) function may reduce speed, power and purge gas consumption of the dry pumping system while on standby. The dry pumping system can be put into Green Mode / standby mode using the front control panel, the PDT or through the MCM MicroTIM. Refer to Section 4.3 for more information.

Installation

3.1 Locate the dry pumping system

Suitable lifting equipment must be used to move the dry pumping system. It is too heavy to lift by hand.
Move the dry pumping system to its operating position using any of the following methods:
Use a forklift or pallet truck to lift the dry pumping system.
Do not exceed the topple angle when moving the dry pumping system. When using a forklift or pallet truck, adjust the forks to lift around the centre of gravity.
When using a forklift or pallet truck to lift the dry pumping system, be sure to insert the forks under the base rail on the side of the dry pumping system otherwise the exhaust may be damaged. The base rail has cut-outs for forklift access.
Refer to the installation drawings in Appendix A1 for topple angle and centre of gravity information.
Lift the dry pumping system by the eyebolts.
Ensure that the maximum angle between paired slings used to lift the dry pumping system is 45°.
Each dry pumping system is provided with four lifting eyebolts to enable lifting, Figure 2 item 4. Ensure that all the lifting eyebolts are used when lifting the dry pumping system. Once the dry pumping system has
been moved to its location, remove the lifting eyebolts and replace with the lifting eyebolt covers supplied with the dry pumping system.

3.1.1 Dry pumping systems with optional castors

Dry pumping systems fitted with castors should only be wheeled short distances over flat surfaces. If the floor surface is uneven or has obstacles the dry pumping system should be lifted with suitable lifting equipment.
GXS dry pumping systems are supplied with an option of skids or castors. For dry pumpin g systems fitted with casto rs it is important to note that the castors are intended only to aid manoeuvre of the dry pumping system into its final operating position. Dry pumping systems should be moved near to their final operating positions using either a forklift or pallet truck or lifted via the eyebolts as described above.
Note that the force required to push a dry pumping system on its castors varies greatly depending on the surface finish and cleanliness of the floor and any slopes or inclines. The forces quoted in Section 2.1 were measured on a flat and level concrete floor and are not necessarily representative of all industrial locations.
It is the user's responsibility to carry out a risk assessment of their own location and take appropriate measures to ensure that the dry pumping system is manoeuvred safely and in accordance with local and national manual handling guidelines.

WARNING

3.1.2 Levelling the pump

The GXS dry pumping system must be located on a firm, level surface to ensure that it works correctly and is not damaged. The pump must be level to a maximum of 3 degrees in any direction, measured at the pump inlet. It can be located directly on the floor or on a frame. Ensure that access is possible to the emergency stop button (refer to
Figure 1, item 1). Guidance for access areas (general and service) is given in the installation drawings.
Pumps with skids are provided with four floor mounting plates, Figure 2, item 2. If necessary, fit shims
(which must be supplied) to ensure that the dry pumping system is level.
Pumps with castors are provided with f our levellin g feet, Figure 3, item 21. Once the dry pumping system has
been pushed into position, adjust the levelling feet to make sure that the dry pump ing system is level a nd is not supported by the castors. Refer to the installation drawings in Appendix A1 for suggested jacking height.

3.1.3 Securing the pump

To secure the pump in place to prevent inadvertent movement (for example during an earthquake), take note of the following:
Dry pumping systems with castors are supplied with 4 off seismic restraints as detailed in the installation
drawings.
Dry pumping systems with skids are provided with 4 off mounting holes in the floor mounting plates as
detailed in the installation drawings.
Installation
All dry pumping systems can be secured by fitting bolts o r studs (not supplied) th rough the mo unting holes in
either the mounting plates or seismic restraints. Use M16 (5/8 inch) bolts with shakeproof washers or other suitable anchor bolts of the same size.
Ensure that bolt size and spacing is adequate for the loads anticipated and the strength of the floor or frame.T o locate the pump directly on the floor, use a concrete foundation with a mass of at least 1.5 times the mass
of the pump. Ensure the length and width of the foundation extend at least 100 mm (4 inches) beyond the dimensions of the pump.
If vibration transmission is a concern, vibration isolators (not supplied) should be fitted betwee n the
mounting plates or seismic restraints and the bolt or stud.

3.2 Lubrication

The dry pumping systems are given a charge of oil before leaving the factory.

3.3 Connect the dry pumping system to the vacuum / exhaust system

Pipe the exhaust to a suitable treatment plant to prevent the discharge of dangerous gases or vapours to the surrounding atmosphere.

CAUTION
CAUTION
WARNING
Installation
Do not operate the dry pumping system with the exhaust pipeline blocked. If the exhaust pipeline is blocked, the dry pumping system can generate exhaust pipeline pressures of up to 10 bar (10 x 10 in the exhaust pipeline for less than 0.5 seconds if the inlet is instantaneously exposed to atmospheric pressure when the pump is running and the exhaust is blocked.
Dry pumping systems have a maximum continuous exhaust line pressure limit. Operation above the limit may damage the pumping mechanism. GXS medium duty dry pumping systems have an exhaust pressure sensor which will initiate warnings and alarms when the pump is operated for at least 20 seconds above the limits given in Table 24. The pump will continue to run with a warning present, however an alarm will cause the pump to stop. GXS light duty dry pumping systems do not have an exhaust pressure sensor. The maximum continuous exhaust line pressure of these dry pumping systems should not exceed 0.4 barg. For all pumps, it is the user's responsibility to provide an exhaust system with sufficient conductance to ensure the exhaust pressure limit is not normally exceeded.

Pa). Note that a pressure spike up to a maximum 15 bar (15 x 105 Pa) can be generated
Use a catchpot to prevent the drainage of condensate back into the dry pumping system. Condensate that drains back into the dry pumping system could damage the pump.
Do not reuse any O-ring or O-ring assembly and do not allow debris to get into the dry pumping system during installation.
When connecting the dry pumping system to the vacuum system, take note of the following:
To get the best pumping speed, ensure that the pipeline which connects the vacuum system to the dry
pumping system is the minimum length possible and has an internal diameter not less than the system inlet port.
Ensure that all components in the vacuum pipeline have a maximum pressure rat ing which is greater than the
highest pressure that can be generated in the dry pumping system.
Incorporate flexible pipelines in the vacuum pipeline to reduce the transmission of vibration and to prevent
loading of coupling joints. Edwards recommend using Edwards braided flexible pipelines. The pipelines should be rated for 110 °C.
Adequately support vacuum/exhaust pipelines to prevent the transmission of stress to pipeline coupling
joints.
Incorporate a pressure gauge in the inlet pipeline to determine that the dry pumping system operates
correctly.
The dry pumping system inlet must be ab le to b e isolated from the atmosphere and from the vacuum system
if pumping or producing corrosive chemicals.
The outlet of the exhaust pipe can have a check valve fitted which prevents the suck-back of exhaust
vapours after the dry pumping system is shut down. The check valve also provides additional attenua tion of the pulses in exhaust pressure.
For all GXS750 dry pumping systems there is a limit to the length of NW50 pipeline that can be used between
the pump exhaust connection and the facility exhaust. For GXS750 dry pumpi ng systems with a check valve, the length of pipeline is limited to 1 metre. For GXS750 dry pumping systems without a check valve the length is limited to 3 metres. If these lengths are exceeded, the GXS750 pump will trip out due to high exhaust pressure. If the distance to the facility exhaust is greater than these limits, consider using an adaptor on the pump exhaust and a larger diameter pipeline.

Use Edwards half claw clamps:
For pumps running on dusty processes Edwards recommend that the exhaust line is clea ned regularly as part
of routine maintenance. Accumulation of dust in the exhaust line can reduce conductance and therefore increase exhaust pressure which ma y damage the pump. The frequency of exhaust line cleaning depends on the process. On very dusty applications, use a low-impedance inlet filter to reduce maintenance requirements.
1. Referring to Figure 5, remove the temporary cover or blanking plate from the inlet of the dry pumping system.
Take care not to drop screws, tools and so forth into the pump inlet. Retain the nuts, bolts, washers and blanking plate for future use. Retain the temporary cover for future use on non-contaminated pumps only. The inlet O-ring is supplied with the pump, it is fitted underneath the inlet flange cover.
2. Use the O-ring supplied and suitable nuts, bolts and washers (not supplied) to connect the inlet flange
(Figure 2, item 5) to the vacuum system. The inlet flange is not designed for use with a trapped O-ring or centering ring. Use Edwards half claw clamps when connecting an ISO style foreline flange to the dry pumping system inlet. Refer to Figure 5.

3.4 Connect the purge gas supply

Ensure that the purge gas supply conforms to the requirements given in the technical data section. Failure to do so may cause the gas pipelines to become blocked or the dry pumping system to be damaged.
Refer to Figure 3, item 18 for location of the purge gas connection. Nitrogen and clean dry air are suitable purge gases for GXS dry pumping systems. To use a different purge gas, please contact Edwards.
Check visually that the rotameter is not damaged when installing the dry pumping system.
Note: Refer to Section 2.4 for purge gas supply requirements.

3.4.1 Flammable / pyrophoric materials

Obey the instructions and take note of any precautions given below to ensure that pumped gases do not enter their flammable ranges.
When flammable or pyrophoric materials are present within the pump there may be additional risks that the user is responsible for assessing and managing as part of the entire process system installation. Th e severity of the risks and the necessary control measures will depend largely on whether the process system exhaust is in the flammable region, if this is part of normal operation, or if it might only occur under rare conditions. The additional risks arise because all dry pumps must be considered a potential source of ignition due to the heat of compression, or possibly friction. If ignition occurs then the following may happen:
High pressures could occur within the pump and may not be contained.A flame front could travel back up the foreline.A flame front could travel downstream from the exhaust of the pump.
Industry best practice suggests that the following measures will reduce the risks of pu mping flammable mi xtures and pyrophoric materials, but it is the responsibility of the user to carry out a risk assessment and take appropriate measures:
Do not allow air to enter the equipment.Ensure that the dry pumping system is leak tight.Ensure that gases in the pump do not enter the flammable range. This may be achieved by diluting gases in
the pump by supplying sufficient inert gas purge. For example, dilution with nitrogen to below one quarter Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) or, if that is not practical, to below 60% Limiting Oxidant Concentration (LOC).
The gas module supplied with the pump is not intended to perform a safety function. Users may need to
consider adding appropriate measures to monitor the flow of purge gas, for example external sensors. Dry pumping systems that are fitted with the light duty gas module must not be used on applications pumping flammable or pyrophoric materials.
For further information please refer to Publication Number P400-40-100, Applications Note 'Pumping Flammable Gases' P411-00-090 or contact Edwards.

M588-00-880 Issue E
WARNING

3.4.2 Gas purges

If inert gas purges to dilute dangerous gases to a safe level are to be used, ensure that the pump is shut down if an inert gas supply fails.
Switch on the inert gas purge to remove air from the pump and the exhaust pipeline before the process starts. Switch off the purge flow at the end of the process only after the remaining flammable gases or vapours have b een purged from the exhaust pipeline.
If liquids that produce flammable vapours could be present in the pump foreline, then the inert gas purge to the dry pumping system 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 fla mmable gases/vapours that could occur. For example, if a mass flow controller is being used to supply flammable gases to the process, assume a flow rate for flammable gases that could arise if the mass flow controller is fully open.
Continually measure the inert gas flow rate; if the flow rate falls below that required, then the flow of flammable gases or vapours to the pump must be stopped.

To continue to operate the dry pumping system, refer to Section 4.1.Otherwise, shut down the dry pumping system, refer to Section 4.4.

3.12 Install additional safety equipment

If the control system needs to know the total flow rate of purge gas to the dry pumping system for safety reasons, install suitable measurement equipment in the purge gas supply pipeline.
Installation
If the gas purges are used to dilute dangerous gases to a safe level, ensure that the dry pumping system shuts down if the purge gas supply to the dry p umping system fails.
If the total flow rate of purge gas to the dry pumping system is required to be known for safety reasons, suitable measurement equipment should be fitted in the purge gas supply pipeline. If fitting a rotameter, ensure that it is suitable for use with the purge gas and that it is correctly calibrated. The rotameter supplied with the pump is not intended to perform a safety function, it is not calibrated and must be used for indication only.
Ensure that the installation is configured so that it remains safe if there is a failure of the purge gas supply to the dry pumping system.
If an alarm condition is detected the dry pumping system will shut down automatically. Ensure that the installation remains safe if the dry pumping system shuts down automat ically.

3.13 Purge gas set up

There are two types of gas module used on GXS dry pumping systems, refer to Section 2.4. The gas module configuration may be adjusted to suit p rocess demands. Contact Edwards service personnel for instruction on how to access the gas valves menu (by the PDT) and for process-specific recommendations.
For dry pumping systems using the medium duty gas module, there is an adjustable needle valve fitted to the purge pipe which enables the adjustment of the level of gas ballast to suit the application.
Use the following procedure to adjust the gas ballast:
1. Remove the left hand side panel of the dry p umping system.
2. Identify the adjustable needle valve on the purge pipe (contact Edwards for guidance).
3. Adjust the needle valve until the required flow is met. Note that the rotameter on the rear of the pump measures total purge gas flow to the dry pumping system, including shaft seal and exhaust purge as well as gas ballast. The total purge flow is indicated by the position of the centre of the ball in the rotameter. Refer to
Section 2.4 for purge gas flows.
4. Refit the side panel.

3.14 High flow purge and solvent flush set up

By default the DP clean high flow purge and solvent flush assembly draws atmospheric air into the GXS dry pumping system. If air is not compatible with the user’s process then nitrogen or another inert gas may be used. It is the responsibility of the user to assess whether the DP clean purge gas is compatible with the process.
Edwards only recommends use of water and diluted Loctite® 7840 or Loctite® Natural Blue® when performing a solvent flush procedure. It is the responsibility of the user to assess whether Loctite Loctite® MSDS and technical data sheet. In particular the manufacturer states that Loctite® 7840 and Loctite systems and should not be selected as a sealant for chlorine or other strong oxidizing materials.
For queries about solvent compatibility, contact Edwards applications speciali sts.
Hot steam and liquid will exit the pump during the solvent flush procedure. Ensure that the exhaust is piped away safely and that any solvents are disposed of in accordance with local and national safety and environmental requirements.
If an inert gas is used in place of atmospheric air for the DP clean purge gas, ensure it is regulated to atmospheric pressure otherwise the DP clean process may not work properly and may cause damage to the pump.
The high flow purge and solvent flush procedures are performed by a single assembly wh ich is sup plied as an option fitted in the factory. The actuating valve is operated pneumatically. Ensure the pneumatic gas supply meets the specification given in Section 2.7.
Use a 3/8 inch compression fitting (not supplied) to connect the pneumatic supply to the dry pumping system. For pump and booster combinations, the pneumatic inlet connection is on the rear pump panel, refer to Figure 3 item 10. For pump-only systems, refer to Figure 13, item 4.

4.4 Manual shut down

If the dry pumping system is shut down and not isolated from the electrical supply, do not disconnect the Pump Display Terminal or release control from the Pum p Display Terminal or front panel. This may result in the dry pumping system being started by another Module.
Do not remove the inlet connections until the pump has been allowed to stop rotating and the power has been isolated. The pump can take up to three minutes to completely stop.
If the pump is stopped without the gas purge cycle on processes that have condensable or solid by-products then the pump may not restart.
For applications pumping liquids or condensable gases: if the pump is switched off straight after process then liquids may remain trapped in the pump. These liquids can corrode the pump mechanism whilst the dry pumping system is switched off for extended periods and may prevent the pump from starting again. For these applications Edwards recommend carrying out a Smart Stop with Stop Time set to the maximum 3600 seconds. Once the pump has stopped, seal the inlet and exhaust to prevent migration of liquid/condensable back into the pump mechanism.
Operation
The GXS dry pumping system has two manual shut down modes: Fast and Auto. In Fast shut down mode, no gas purges are introduced and the pump stops quickly. This method of shut down is not
recommended. In Auto shut down mode, a purge gas cycle is introduced and the pump shuts down gradually over a time period. This
is the recommended shut down mode and is the default mode on the dry pumping system. Smart Stop is an additional sequence that allows the user to define the time period for the gra dual shut down and to
configure a setpoint temperature. If Smart Stop is enabled, the pump will perform a Smart Stop when the user selects Auto shut down.
Refer to Table 22 for stop sequences.
Table 22 - Stop sequences
Sequence Description
Stop with inlet purge Inlet purge gas valve opened (medium duty pumps only).
Inlet isolation valve closed (if fitted). Pump runs for 15 minutes before stopping. All gas purge valves closed before pump stops.
Smart Stop Inlet purge gas valve opened (medium duty pumps only).
Inlet isolation valve closed (if fitted). Pump speed is ramped down over configurable shut down time. All purge gas valves closed before pump stops. Pump stops after configurable shut down time or after a con figurable time period
after the pump temperature is below a configurable setpoint.

Operation
The pump can be shut down using either the MCM MicroTIM, the PDT or the front panel controls. Note that only the item in control can stop the pump (refer to Section 1.4).
Note: The EMS button will alwa ys stop the pump. It does not matter which item has co ntrol. Refer to Section 4.7.
If the pump is not going to be required for some time, switch off the electrical supply and the cooling water supply. Seal the pump inlet and exhaust to prevent any moisture in the atmosphere from corroding the pumping me chanism.

4.4.1 MicroTIM operation

Use the control equipment to reset the pump start/stop signal to the interface connector. The Running LEDs will then go off and the pump running status output signal will open. An Auto shut down cycle is always performed when the pump is stopped using the MCM MicroTIM.

4.4.2 PDT operation

Press the stop button on the PDT (refer to Appendix A2 for more information). Choose whether to select Auto or Fast shut down mode.

4.4.3 Front panel control operation

Press and hold the stop button (Figure 1, item 4) for 5 seconds to stop the pump in Auto shut down mode (recommended). Repeat within 10 seconds to stop the pump in Fast shut down mode. The running LED (Figure 1, item 2) flashes whilst the pump is slowing down and will then turn off when the pump has shut down.

4.5 Automatic shut down

Normally, if an alarm condition exists, the control system will shut down the dry pumping system. When the dry pumping system shuts down, all the purge gas valves close and the pump stops. For dry pumping systems containing a dry pump and booster combination, some a larms wi ll cause only the booster to stop, and not the full dry pumping system.

Operation
Notes: 1. If monitoring the state of the solvent that exits the pump to determine whether the pump is clean take
special care because solvent solution initially exits the pump as steam and then as hot liquid with typical temperature of 75 °C.
2. The exhausted liquid will never run clear. Exhau sted liquid fro m a ‘cl ean ’ p ump has a sim ilar visco sity to water (not thick and viscous) and is a light rust colour when seen exiting the exhaust.
3. Depending on the application, the solvent flush process may need to be repeated, contact Edwards for advice.
4. If the pump takes an abnormally long time to draw in fluids, there may be a problem with the high flow purge and solvent flush kit. A blocked o rifice o r leaks in t he solvent suction pipe or pneumatic gas line are the most likely causes. Investigate the problem and rectify before continuing to use the solvent flush procedure. If in doubt, contact Edwards.
Once the DP clean time has elapsed, the dry pumping system will return back to Green Mode/Standby mode settings. The pump can then be put back on-process.
To stop the solvent flush process whilst it is running, enter the DP Clean menu again using the PDT and select ‘DP Clean off’. The pneumatic valve will shut, stopping the flow of solvent into the pump. If DP Clean has been configured to run an inlet purge cycle after the clean cycle, sending a ‘DP Clean off’ command will initiate the purge cycle. To stop the purge cycle as well, the PDT must be used to select 'DP Clean off' for a second time.
The DP clean procedure can be configured to suit the user’s application, refer to Appendix A2.9.

4.10 Pump speed control and PID

For some applications it is important to be able to adjust the speed of the pump whilst it is on-process, either to a set speed or to control the speed continuously to maintain a process pressure. The GXS dry pumping system has capability to run both the dry pump and booster at various speeds whilst on-process and it is possible to configure these speeds by a number of different methods. Refer to Appendix A2.10 for more information about how to set up speed control options.
The GXS dry pumping system has a built-in Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller. When the PID function is enabled and the pump is on-process, the PID controller continually adjusts the speed of the pump so that a user­determined pressure is maintained at the chosen pressure sensor.
For more information about enabling and setting up the PID controller, refer to Appendix A2.11.

and clean contaminated components inside a fume cupboard.
Re-check the pump rotation direction if the electrical supply has been disconnected.O-ring replacement intervals vary depending on the application.Dispose of components, grease and oil safely.Take care to protect sealing faces from damage .Do not touch or inhale the thermal breakdown products of fluorinated materials which may be present if the
dry pumping system has been overheated to 260 °C and above. These breakdown products are very dangerous. Fluorinated materials in the dry pumping sy stem include oils , greases and sea ls. The dry pumping system may have overheated if it was misused, if it malfunctioned or if it was in a fire. Edwards Safety Data Sheets for fluorinated materials used in the pump are available on request.
The dry pumping system requires little operator maintenance between overhauls. Pump protection sensors fitted to the dry pumping system do not require routine maintenance. The maintenance operations that can be carried out are described in the following sections. The frequency of maintenance operations depends on the process. Adjust the frequency of maintenance operations according to user experience.
When maintaining the dry pumping system, use replacement parts, seals and fittings supplied by Edwards, refer to
Section 7. Ensure that the purge gas and cooling water supplies are connected in parallel and that they meet the
specifications given in Section 2. Contact Edwards for more information.
Note: If the pump is controlled by the MCM MicroTIM then all the configuration options for accessories and set
sequences are stored in the MCM MicroTIM and not in the pump. This means that if a replacement pump is swapped in it will be unnecessary to configure these options again if using the same MCM MicroTIM.

5.2 Relocate the dry pumping system for maintenance

The substances that accumul ate in the exhaust pipe, elbow and check valve can be dangerous. Do not allow these substances to come into contact with skin or eyes. Do not inhale vapours from these substances. Fit blanking caps to the inlet and outlet flanges when moving the exhaust pipe, elbow or check valve around the workplace. The majority of synthetic oils/grease can cause inflammation of the skin (dermatitis). Safety precautions must be taken to prevent prolonged skin contact with these substances. Use of suitable protective gloves and clothing along with a respirator is recommended if contact with the substance is anticipated. System process gases and residue can be highly toxic. Take all necess ary precautions when handling components that have, or could have, come into contact with them, including O-rings, lubricants and all exhaust accessories.
Suitable lifting equipment must be used to move the dry pumping system. It is too heavy to lift by hand.
