3.1 Safety
WARNING
Obey the safety instructions given below and take note of appropriate precautions. If you
do not, you can cause injury to people and damage to equipment.
• A suitably trained and supervised technician must install your ESDP pump.
• Ensure that the installation of the pump conforms with all the requirements of your local
and national safety standards. Ensure that your control system is configured so that the
pumping system is safe if the electrical supply fails.
• Ensure that the installation technician is familiar with the safety precautions for the gases
processed by the pumping system. Wear the appropriate safety-clothing when you come
into contact with contaminated components. Vent and purge the pumping system before
you start installation work.
• Disconnect the other components in the pumping system from the electrical supply so that
they cannot be operated accidentally.
• Do not reuse ’O’ rings and Co-Seals if they are damaged.
3.2 System requirements
Consider the following points when you design your pumping system:
• Support the vacuum pipelines to stop the transmission of stress to the pipeline joints.
• You must be able to isolate the pump inlet and outlet from the atmosphere and from your
vacuum system if you have pumped dangerous gases.
