Edwards E2M18 User Manual

▪ Avoid high levels of heat input to the pump from the process gases, otherwise the
pump may overheat and seize, and cause the motor thermal overload device to
open.
▪ If using the pump in a high ambient temperature with a high gas throughput, the
temperature of the pump body may exceed 70 °C. We recommend the use of
addional guarding to prevent contact with hot surfaces under these condions.
▪ Make sure that the exhaust pipeline cannot become blocked. If an outlet-isolaon
valve is ed, make sure the pump cannot be operated with the valve closed.
▪
Provide for a purge of inert gas when the pumping system is shut down, to dilute
dangerous gases to safe concentraons. A suitable gas-ballast control valve for
introducon of purge gas into the pump is available as an accessory (refer to Gas
ballast valve on page 48).
Contact our applicaon team for further advice on diluon requirements if required.
