Introduction Scope and definitions This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the Edwards iH dry pumping systems. You must use your pumping system as specified in this manual. Read this manual before you install and operate your pump. Important safety information is highlighted as WARNING and CAUTION instructions;...
If you use the iH system on an application for which it is not suitable (refer to Figure 1), you may invalidate your warranties. If in doubt, contact Edwards who will advise you as to the suitability of the iH system for any particular application. Figure 1 - iH applications chart...

Edwards Publication Number P300-20-000 'Vacuum Pump and Vacuum System Safety'. Only Edwards engineers may install the dry pumping system. Users can be trained by Edwards to conduct the tasks described in this manual, contact your local service centre or Edwards for more information.
A590-00-880 Issue D Incorporate flexible pipelines in the vacuum pipeline to reduce the transmission of vibration and to prevent loading of coupling-joints. We recommend that you use Edwards braided flexible pipelines. The pipelines should be suitable for 110 °C. Adequately support vacuum/exhaust pipelines to prevent the transmission of stress to pipeline coupling-joints.
(200 V to 230 V) and high voltage (380 V to 460 V) ranges. Contact your supplier or Edwards if you wish to use the iH system with a power supply in a different voltage range to that specified on the rating plate.
Notes: 1. Edwards recommend that the electrical supply be connected to a suitable isolator, which is easily accessible for maintenance and clearly identified. 2. If you need further information on connecting the electrical supply, look it up on the Web using URL at the start of manual, or contact your supplier or Edwards for advice.

(refer to Section 7.3). 7. On iH80, 160 and 600 systems, we recommend that you fit a second protective earth (ground) conductor to the protective earth (ground) stud on the Electrics Box (Figure 3, item 1) and connect the other end of this conductor to your factory earth (ground).
(Figure 6, item 3) goes on. If the LED does not go on, contact Edwards or refer to the Web. 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).
The decision on whether or not to shutdown the pump is left with the tool. If the iH system has an unplanned shutdown, ensure that the cause of the shutdown is identified and rectified before restarting. If you are in any doubt, please call a Edwards Service Engineer. Table 7 - Safety sensors...
Particular caution should be exercised when working with hydrocarbons which may have been exposed to temperatures greater than 260 °C. Refer to Edwards Material Safety Data Sheets for detailed information. Ensure that the maintenance technician is familiar with the safety procedures which relate to the products pumped.
The iH 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: contact your supplier or Edwards.
Inspect the pump monthly and, if necessary, wipe the outside clean with a soft lint free cloth and a proprietary cleaning material based on demineralised water or isopropanol. General maintenance The following maintenance can be carried out on the system, refer to Web and/or contact Edwards for details and training: Check purge gas flow rates...
If the fuse immediately fails when you replace it, there may be an electrical fault: contact your supplier or Edwards for advice. 1. Use a flat-bladed screwdriver to undo the fuse holder (items 3 to 5) by a 1/4 of a turn, then remove the fuse holder from the Electrics Box.
Dispose of the system and any components safely and in accordance with all local and national safety and environmental requirements. 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...
Return of Edwards Equipment Procedure (refer to forms HS1 and HS2 at the rear of this manual). Notes: 1. Whenever you return the iH system to a Edwards Service Centre or other Edwards company, you must comply with the requirements of...
