DRAINS
Refer to the Safety section in Chapter One of the
6DS-SP Operations manual or Chapter One
of the
6DS-SP Maintenance manual for further information on slurry
compounds and waste disposal.
The Model 6DS-SP Planarizer has two drains, both clearly labeled and located at
the rear. The drain connection for the polish table drain tub is labeled table
drain (12). As mostly undiluted slurry will drain through the table drain pipe
during polishing, this pipe should be connected to a drain system designed for
handling the disposal of such materials.
The second drain, labeled loader drain (16) is connected to the drain tub below
the shuttle and elevators. With a standard machine configuration, this pipe
carries D.I. water and residual amounts of slurry; thus, it may not require any
special handling provisions. However, if a second polish table is installed, this
drain may carry slurry, which requires a connection to a drain system designed
for handling the disposal of such materials.
Both drain lines are 1-1/2" PVC pipe.
Although the table drain pipe incorporates a cleanout branch inside the machine,
an external cleanout is recommended for each drain pipe. Pipe unions are also
recommended--located near each drain pipe connection to facilitate future pipe
servicing or possible machine moving.
The slurry supply lines, slurry 1 supply (6) and slurry 2 supply (7), are
described Slurry System Connection, below.
