The relevant technical documentation has been compiled in accordance with Annex VII Part B. In response to a reasoned request by the national authorities, Edwards Ltd undertakes to provide relevant information on the partly completed machinery (via email).
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.

40 W Recommended backing ‡‡‡ pump The data shown for EXT200/200H GCMS applies to pumps: B75640991, B75641991, B75642991, B75643991 and B75644991. This is because these pumps have the same internal components and the data is taken without inlet screens fitted. †...
Figure 6, with the Edwards logo uppermost. Ensure that the dimples on the rim of the screen engage in the groove in the pump flange. If necessary, gently bend the tabs of the screen outwards to ensure a tight fit.
B756-01-880 Issue K Use the Edwards trapped O-ring supplied with the pump and use a minimum of four fixing bolts to connect the inlet flange of the pump to the vacuum system. M8 bolts should be tightened to a torque of 5-6 Nm.
However, if the pump is manually vented when it is at full rotational speed and the rate of pressure rise is too high, the pump life may be reduced. When using the manual vent valve supplied, Edwards recommends either limiting the vent or only opening the vent valve after the EXT Split Flow Pump speed has fallen to 50% of full rotational speed.
Alternatively, send the pump to an Edwards Service Centre to have the bearings replaced. When returning the pump to an Edwards Service Centre, use the procedure included at the end of this manual. Please note that the instruction to drain all fluids does not apply to the lubricant in the pump oil reservoirs.
If the inside of the EXT Split Flow pumps is contaminated, it may not be possible to achieve the specified ultimate vacuum, or pump-down time may increase. In these circumstances, the pump must be returned 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.
The majority of these centres employ Service Engineers who have undergone comprehensive Edwards training courses. Order spare parts and accessories from the nearest Edwards company or distributor. When ordering, state for each part required: Model and item number of the equipment.
Pump system originally supplied with D396-46-510 (unpackaged) 7.4.3 EXC controllers The Edwards EXC Controllers provide the facilities necessary for operating a pumping system based on an EXT70/ 200H, EXT70/200Hi, EXT200/200H or EXT200/200Hi Split Flow Pump. The Item Numbers of the EXC Controllers are given below.
