Notes: 1. The high flow purge /solvent flush kit is available as an option.
2. The DP clean solvent suction pipe is supplied with the pump but not fitted.
2.8 External evacuation system
Pumpdown performance on dry pumping systems fitted with mechanical boosters can be further enhanced by the use
of an External Evacuation System (EES) kit. The EES kit will only provide a performance improvement on pumpdown
cycles lasting less than 30s to pressures below 0.1mbar. The EES kit must only be used on clean applications.
