Obey all relevant safety requirements (regulations and guidelines) and adopt suitable safety measures.
z Provide a firm level platform for the equipment and check that the system to be evacuated is mechanically
stable and that all fittings are secure.
Note:Flexible elements tend to shrink when evacuated.
Due to the high compression ratio of the pumps, pressure at the outlet port might be generated being higher than
the max. permitted pressure compatible with the mechanical stability of the system.
Obey maximum permitted pressures and pressure differences, see Section 2 Technical data. Do
not operate the pump with overpressure at the inlet.
Do not permit any uncontrolled pressurizing (e. g. make sure that the exhaust pipeline cannot
become blocked). If you have an exhaust-isolation valve, make sure that you cannot operate the
equipment with the valve closed. Risk of bursting
!
Ensure that the system design does not allow the exhaust pipeline to become blocked:
z Avoid overpressure of more tha n 0.2 bar in case inert gas is connected.
z The diameter of the inlet and outlet pipeline should be at the least as large as the diameter of the pump
connection pipelines.
z Adopt suitable measures in case of differences, e. g. using the equipment outdoors, installation in altitudes
of more than 1000 m above mean sea level, conductive pollution or moisture.
Pay attention to symbol “hot surfaces” on the equipment. Adopt suitable measures to prevent any
danger arising from the formation of hot surfaces or electric sparks.
The pumps are not suitable to pump dangerous or explosive gases or explosive or flammable
mixtures. Ensure that the materials of the wetted parts are compatible with the pumped
substances, see Section 2 Technical data.
Adopt suitable measures to prevent the release of dangerous, explosive, corrosive or polluting
fluids.
Use inert gas for gas ballast or venting if necessary.
The user must take suitable precautions to prevent any formation of explosive mixtures in the
expansion chamber. In case of a diaphragm crack, mechanically generated sparks, hot surfaces or
static electricity may ignite these mixtures.
Take adequate precautions to protect people from the effects of dangerous substances (chemicals,
thermal decomposition products of fluoroelastomers), wear appropriate safety clothing and safety
glasses.
Obey applicable regulations when disposing of chemicals. Take into consideration that chemicals
may be polluted.

Note:A suitably trained or qualified technician must carry out the following procedures.
3.1Electrical connection
3.1.1XDD1 dual-voltage motor
Ensure that the motor is correctly configured for your electrical supply. If you operate the pump when the motor
is not correctly configured for the electrical supply, you will damage the motor.
Do not change the voltage selector switch while the pump is connected to the mains supply.
Figure 5 - Adjust the supply voltage
Installation
1. Selecting 115 covers a voltage supply range of 100 V to 120 V.
2. Selecting 230 covers a voltage supply range of 200 V to 240 V.
Ensure that the voltage shown on the voltage selector switch (Figure 5, item 1) corresponds with your electrical
supply voltage. If it does not, you must change the configuration of the pump motor using the voltage selector switch
to match your supply voltage. Use a screw driver to adjust the selector switch to the correct voltage.
Ensure that the electrical installation of the XDD1 mains pump conforms with your local and
national safety requirements. It must be connected to a suitably fused and protected electrical
supply and suitable earth point. For electrical data refer to Table 1.
Figure 6 - Replacing the motor fuse (dual-voltage motor)
1. Carefully remove the fuse holder at the side of the pump (refer to Figure 1, item 5).
2. Replace the defective fuse with a 2.5 A type T and secure the fuse carrier back into its holder.
3.1.2XDD1 24 V dc
The pump has been factory set to a constant pumping speed when connected to a 24 V DC (=/-10%) supply. The pump
can also be controlled using an external analogue 0-10 V signal. Use a suitable connector mating half (not supplied)
to connect the electrical supplies and your control equipment to the connector on the logic interface cable. When

Installation
3.2Configure the XDD1 24V dc internal speed setting
There are two internal speed settings, use the following procedure to adjust the internal speed control (refer to
Figure 7).
Remove the screw which secures the cover to the circuit board (refer to Figure 2, item1) Move the cover carefully
and only as far as necessary. Using a screw dr iver, turn the potentiom et er t o one of tw o posi ti ons . Set t o posi ti on 2
for normal speed or position 3 if maximum throughput is required (refer to Figure 7). Assemble the cover in reverse
order.
3.3Configuring the XDD1 24V dc for external analogue (0 - 10 V)
speed control
Remove the screw which secures the cover to the circuit board (refer to Figure 2, item1) Move the cover carefully
and only as far as necessary. Using a screw driver turn the potentiometer anti-clockwise to position 1 (refer to
Figure 7). Assemble the cover in reverse order. Apply external analogue 0-10 V signal for motor speed control.
Voltage input: analogue 0 V....10 V
<0.5 V: Pump stopped
0.5 V to 10 V : Linear increase of the motor speed (~100 rpm to 2200 rpm)
Note:Pump runs smoothly only at speeds > 200 rpm ( > ~0.9 V).
Operating the pump at high motor speeds increases the pump throughput, this will also cause the pump to generate
more heat. Ensure there is adequate ventilation especially when using the pump within confined spaces or
enclosures.
Operating the pump at low motor speeds increases the ultimate vacuum performance, this will also increase the
lifetime of the diaphragm and valves.

CAUTION
4Use and operation
4.1Installing in a vacuum system
The pump can be mounted in any orientation.
Avoid throttling losses by using connecting pipes with large diameter and keep them as short as possible.
Reduce the transmission of vibration and prevent loading due to rigid pipelines. Insert elastic hoses or flexible
elements as couplings between the pump and rigid pipes.
Note:Flexible elements tend to shrink when evacuated.
Use a suitable valve to isolate the pump from the vacuum system to allow the pump to warm up before condensable
vapours are pumped or to clean the pump before it is switched off.
Connect the exhaust to a suitable treatment plant to prevent the discharge of dangerous gases and vapours to the
surrounding atmosphere. Use a catchpot to prevent the drainage of contaminated condensate back into the pump.
4.2Prior to use
Use and operation
Note:Max. ambient temperature: 40 °C.
Make sure ventilation is adequate if pump is installe d in a housing or if ambient temperature is elevated. Keep a
distance of min. 20 cm between fans and ambient parts.
When assembling, ensure vacuum-tightness. After assembly, check the complete system for leaks.
4.3During operation
Do not start or operate the pump if pressure at the outlet is higher than 1.1 bar absolute. Attempts to start or
operate the pump at higher pressure may cause blockade and damage of the motor.
The pump achieves its pumping speed, ultimate total vacuum and vapour pumping rate only at operating
temperature (after approx. 15 minutes).
Prevent internal condensation, transfer of liquids or dust. The diaphragm and valves will be damaged, if liquids are
pumped in significant amounts.
4.3.1Pumps with dual-voltage motor
Motor is shut down by a thermal cutout in the winding. Manual reset is necessary. Switch off the pump or isolate the
equipment from mains. Wait approx. five minutes before restarting the pump. Identify cause of failure and eliminate.
Note:Pump starts again after power failure.
4.3.2Pumps with 24 V dc voltage
The motor is protected by a temperature sensor at the circuit board (current limitation if the tempera t ure at t he
circuit board is higher than 70°C).
Has the pump been exposed to condensate?Allow the pump to continue to run at atmospheric
pressure with inlet open for a few minutes.
Has the pump been exposed to media which may
damage the pump materials or forms deposits?

5Maintenance
Ensure that maintenance is done only by suitably trained and supervised technicians. Ensure that the maintenance
technician is familiar with the safety procedures which relate to the product processed by the vacuu m s ystem and
that the equipment, if necessary, is appropriately decontaminated before starting maintenance. Obey local and
national safety regulations.
Before starting maintenance vent the system, isolate the pump and other components from the
vacuum system and the electrical supply, drain condensate and allow sufficient cooling of the
pump.
Before starting maintenance, wait two minutes after isolating the equipment from mains to allow
the capacitors to discharge.
In order to comply with law (occupational, health and safety regulations, safety at work law and regulations for
environmental protection) vacuum pumps, components and measuring instruments returned to the manufacturer can
be repaired only when certain procedures (see section Return of Edwards Equipment - Procedure
(Forms HS 1 and HS 2) are followed.
5.1Replacing diaphragms and valves
Maintenance
Please read section Replacing diaphragms and valves completely before starting maintenance.
Note:The images of the pumps may differ slightly, this does not influence replacing the diaphragm and valves.
All bearings are encapsulated and are filled with long-life lubricant, under normal operating conditions these parts
are maintenance free.
The valves and the diaphragms are wear parts. If the rated ultimate vacuum is no longer achieved, the pump interior,
the diaphragms and the valves must be cleaned and the diaphragms and valves must be checked for cracks or other
damage.
Depending on individual cases it may be efficient to check and clean the pump heads on a regular basis. In case of
normal wear the lifetime of the diaphragms and valves is > 10000 operating hours.
Prevent internal condensation, transfer of liquids or dust. The diaphragm and valves will be damaged, if liquids
are pumped in significant amount.
If the pump is exposed to corrosive gases or vapour or in case of deposits, maintenance should be carried out
frequently.
Note:Regular maintenance will improve the lifetime of the pump and also protect both man and environment.
Before starting maintenance vent the system, isolate the pump and other components from the
vacuum system and the electrical supply.
Drain condensate if applicable, avoid the release of pollutants. Allow sufficient cooling of the pump.
Ensure that the pump cannot be operated accidentally. Never operate the pump if covers or other parts of the
pump are disassembled. Never operate a defective or damaged pump.
Ensure that the maintenance technician is familiar with the safety procedures which relate to the products proc essed
by the pumping system. The pump might be contaminated with the process chemicals that have been pumped during
operation. Ensure that the pump is decontaminated before maintenance and take adequate precautions to protect
people from the effects of dangerous substances if contamination has occurred.
Wear appropriate safety-clothing when you come in contact with contaminated components.
For cleaning or removing deposits of the valves and diaphragms, use a suitable solvent. The use of
any solvents must be used in accordance with your local health and safety regulations.
