Section The EXT Compound Molecular Pumps are designed for use with a Edwards Turbomolecular Pump Drive Module (abbreviated to EXDC Drive Module in the remainder of this manual). Read this manual and the instruction manual supplied with your EXDC Drive Module before you attempt to install or operate the equipment.
If the pump has an ISO flange, use the Edwards trapped ‘O’ ring supplied with the pump and use a minimum of four claw clamps to connect the inlet-flange of the pump to the vacuum system. Ensure that each claw clamp is tightened to a torque of 10 Nm or more.
100% of its normal full rotational speed (as operation above this level reduces bearing operational life). In the unlikely event of a failure of this control circuit the pump may overspeed. If you suspect that your pump may be running at overspeed you should switch it off and consult Edwards or your supplier. Bakeout CAUTION When baking the EXT pump to above 70 °C at the inlet-flange, the pump must be water-cooled to prevent...
We therefore recommend that you exchange your pump for a factory reconditioned replacement every 20,000 cycles, or 10 years of use, whichever occurs first. Alternatively, you can send your pump to an Edwards Service Centre for a major service (which will include rotor replacement).
If the inside of the EXT pump is contaminated, it may not be possible to achieve the specified ultimate vacuum, or pump-down time may increase. In these circumstances, you should return the pump to an Edwards Service Centre, where the pump will be dismantled and cleaned. Use the procedure given in the forms at the end of this manual to return the pump.
