Edwards nEXT730D User Manual

The pump can be used to pump oxygen and water vapour, subject to the following
condions:
▪ O
xygen - The oxygen concentraon must be less than 25% by volume.
4.4 Vent gas specicaon and vent control data
Although the pump may be vented to atmosphere, high relave humidity of the air may
greatly increase the subsequent pump‑down me. To reduce pump‑down mes vent
with dry, clean gases. Refer to Vent opons, vent valve connecon and control on page
76 for a descripon of the vent opons and the vent valve connecon and refer to
Controlled venng opons on page 69 for conguring the venng opons.
