8.5.2 iF Interface Module
The iF Interface Module allows you to control the operation of the iF system through your Process Tool or other
control equipment.
The iF Interface Module can be fitted with one or more Tool Interface Card and/or one or more Auxiliary Interface
Card.
The Tool Interface Card allows you to control and monitor the status of the iF system through your process tool or
other control equipment. The Tool Interface Card has a setpoints store. The setpoints store can be preset to contain
sensor setpoints suitable for a particular process or application (that is, the combination of the iF system
configuration, process chemistry and user's production pattern). If you have a Tool Interface Card fitted, you can use
the application recipe at any time (instead of the default setpoints in the iF system).
The Auxiliary Interface Card allows you to control the operation of other equipment (such as inlet and outlet
isolation-valves) connected to the iF system.
Contact your supplier or Edwards if you want to order iF Interface Modules.
8.5.3 iF Single Pumpset Monitor and iF Fabworks
The iF Single Pumpset Monitor allows you to monitor pump parameters and configure the iF system. The iF Fabworks
allows you to network together all of the iF systems in your installation, and to use a PC to centrally monitor the iF
systems. Contact your supplier or Edwards if you want to network your iF systems.
8.5.4 iF PC Interface Kits
The iF PC Interface Kit allows you to directly connect the iF system to a laptop PC or to a desktop PC and to use the
PC to switch the iF system on and off, and to monitor the status of the iF system. The Kit is supplied with all necessary
cables and with the iF Single Pumpset Monitor software.
8.5.5 iF Nitrogen Flow Switch
When installed, the Flow Switch enables the iF communications Module to monitor the flow of nitrogen purge gas to
the dry pumping system, and shut down the dry pumping system if the flow is too low.
8.5.6 iF Pump Display Module
When fitted, the iF Pump Display Module allows the operator to manually control the pump (as with the Pump Display
Terminal), but with the option of communicating over distances in excess of 25m.
