Exhaust Trap is not suitable for connection to a pump which is used in other processes. The Exhaust Trap is designed to fit BOC Edwards CDP and QDP dry pumps and Drystar MKI, MKII and QMKII dry pumping systems. Your system must incorporate a pressure switch to shut-down the pump if the exhaust system becomes blocked.
Exhaust Trap inlet, you must ensure that the temperature of the connecting pipeline does not fall to below 120 C. A BOC Edwards Temperature Management System (TMS) of suitable heaters and insulators is available for this purpose. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
• Leak-test the system after installation work is complete and seal any leaks found to prevent the leakage of dangerous substances from the system and the leakage of air into the system. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
Exhaust Trap to the baseframe with the eight bolts. 4. Purge then shut down the pumping system. Allow the pump to cool to a safe temperature. 5. Remove the acoustic enclosure (if fitted) on the pump-outlet side of the pump. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...

If your application uses hexachlorodisilane, ensure that liquid hexachlorodisilane cannot reach the Exhauust Trap. WARNING Use only BOC Edwards barrier shield trapped 'O' rings to seal pipeline connections. Note: In the following procedure, where necessary refer to the instruction manual(s) supplied with your pump or pumping system.
Your system must incorporate a pressure switch to shut-down the pump if the exhaust system becomes blocked. BOC Edwards CDP Si pumps and Drystar MKII and QMKII pumping systems incorporate a pressure switch. If you use the Exhaust Trap with a QDP pump, you must fit a QDP Exhaust Pressure Module which is available as an accessory (see Section 7).
Also, if air leaks into the exhaust-system, this will promote the collection of particulates in the exhaust-system. We recommend that the maximum allowed leak rate is 1 x 10 mbar l s (1 x 10 Pa l s ) helium. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
When the pump starts, the flow of water through the Exhaust Trap will cool the exhaust gases and particulates will start to collect in the Exhaust Trap. Shut-down After you switch off the pump, immediately turn off the cooling-water supply to the Exhaust Trap. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
• Take care to protect sealing-faces from damage. • Leak-test the system after maintenance. Seal all detected leaks to prevent the leakage of dangerous substances from the system and leakage of air into the system. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
(or with your pump/pumping system). 4. Use the clamp (3) and Co-Seal (removed in Step 2) to connect the exhaust-silencer inlet to the Exhaust Trap outlet elbow (4). 5. Connect the exhaust-silencer outlet (2) to your exhaust-extraction system. Model 250 Water-Cooled Exhaust Trap...
