Introduction Scope and definitions This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the Edwards iXL600 and iXL1000 dry pumping systems. The pump must be used as specified in this manual. Read this manual before installing and operating the pump.
Edwards can offer advice and assistance in matching the pump to the application. If using the iXL600(N) or iXL1000(N) system on an application for which it is not intended, the warranty may be invalidated.
2), a Pump Display Terminal (PDT), the Edwards System Controller or by the tool through the MicroTIM or one of the serial interfaces. Only one of these can have control of the system at any one time. That is, once one of these has control of the system, control requests from the others are denied.
Average values are the mean value taken from a sample of typical production units. † The maximum pressure at which the pump will operate without generating warnings or alarms. ‡ For iXL600N and iXL1000N with no purge use values for iXL600 and iXL1000.

Edwards Safety Manual Publication Number P400-40-100 Vacuum Pump and Vacuum Systems. Only Edwards trained engineers may install the dry pumping system. Users can be trained by Edwards to conduct the tasks described in this manual. Contact the local service centre or Edwards for more information.
Incorporate flexible pipelines in the vacuum pipeline to reduce the transmission of vibration and to prevent loading of coupling joints. Edwards recommends using Edwards braided flexible pipelines. Adequately support vacuum/exhaust pipelines to prevent the transmission of stress to pipeline coupling ...
If higher voltages are connected, the interface control may be damaged. Contact Edwards if using the system with a power supply in a different voltage range to that specified on the rating plate. The system is protected from motor overloads and short circuits by solid state electronics. The power wiring between the system and the electrical installation must be protected.
(ground) conductor will be the last conductor to be pulled from the connector. If further information on connecting the electrical supply is required, contact Edwards for advice. 1. Screw the cable gland onto the connector hood.
Used on its own, the EMS does not isolate the electrical supply to the pumping system and so does not provide an EMO (Emergency Off) function. This function can be provided by using an Edwards Disconnect Box available as an accessory, see Section 7.3.
Figure 4, item 4) go on. If the LEDs do not go on, contact Edwards. 2. Switch on the cooling water and nitrogen supplies. 3. Ensure that the exhaust extraction system is not blocked (for example, that valves in the exhaust extraction system are open).
Insert the screw driver into hole 1 and adjust variable restrictor until the flow tube indicates the required flow rate. If a different nitrogen flow rate is required please contact Edwards for further advice. 9. Look at the pressure gauge in the inlet pipeline.
If a PDT is connected to the pump, note and record any warning or alarm codes that are displayed (see Appendix A2) to assist with identifying the root cause of the shut-down or alarm. If in any doubt, contact an Edwards Service Engineer.
4.1. Advanced control and monitoring FabWorks-iMS is a tool that can be used to monitor pumping systems over a network. Contact Edwards for more information. For advanced applications, Edwards has a tool that allows the pumping system configuration to be changed. Contact Edwards for more information.
Particular caution should be exercised when working with fluorinated materials which may have been exposed to temperatures greater than 260 °C. Refer to Edwards Material Safety Data Sheets for detailed information.
Fluorinated materials in the system may include oils, greases and seals. The system may have overheated if it was misused, if it malfunctioned or if it was in a fire. Edwards Material Safety Data Sheets for fluorinated materials used in the pump are available on request.
Edwards recommends that carrying out a monthly visual inspection of the system in situ. Check that the cables, hoses and pipelines bringing services to the pump are in good condition and ensure that all connections are secure.
Perchlorate Material - special handling may apply, refer to www.dtsc.ca.gov/hazardouswaste/perchlorate/. Edwards products are supported by a world-wide network of Edwards Service Centres. Each Service Centre offers a wide range of options including disposal. Refer to Section 7.2...
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: 1. Model and Item Number of the equipment 2.
