    If the pump is operated with the exhaust line blocked, a pressure of 5.5 bar(a) may be generated in the  exhaust pipework. Connect the pump using appropriate pipework and fittings. © Edwards Limited 2015. All rights reserved. Page 13 Edwards and the Edwards logo are trademarks of Edwards Limited.
  • Page 20: Leak Test The System

    Ensure that the sealing surfaces are clean and scratch-free.  Edwards recommends the use of an exhaust extraction system suitable for use with all process gases being pumped. Ensure that the exhaust extraction system cannot become blocked or obstructed when the pump is operating.
