1Introduction
1.1 Scope and definitions
This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the following equipment:
IBV16MKS ball valve
IBV16MS ball valve 0.5 inch BSP
IBV25MKS ball valve
IBV25MS ball valve 1.0 inch BSP
IBV40MKS ball valve
IBV40MS ball valve 1.5 inch BSP
IBV50MKS ball valve
IBV50MS ball valve 2.0 inch BSP
The pump must be used as specified in this manual. Read this manual before installing and operating the pump.
Important safety information is highlighted as WARNING and CAUTION instructions; these instructions must be
obeyed. The use of WARNINGS and CAUTIONS is defined below.
CAUTION
Cautions are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in damage to the equipment, associated
equipment and process
The units used throughout this manual conform to the SI international system of units of measurement.
1.2 Description
The IBVMKS and IBVMS ball valves are lever operated vacuum valves designed for long and trouble free operation.
The valves are only available with a stainless steel body in an inline configuration.
1.3 Construction
This range of valves is constructed of a lever attached to a stainless steel ball which is surrounded by Teflon cups
which are held in compression against the ball by the screwed end flange. This flange is thread locked to prevent the
valve from being dismantled as the compression on the ball is factory set.
WARNING
Warnings are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in injury or death to
people.

Installation
C360-00-880 Issue E
3 Installation
3.1 Unpack and inspect
Remove all the packing materials and check the IBV ball valve.
If the valve is damaged, notify the supplier and carrier in writing within three days; state the Item Number of the
valve together with the order number and suppliers invoice number. Retain the packing materials for inspection. Do
not use the valve if damaged.
3.2 Install the valve
The valve is normally supported by the pipeline it is fitted to and can be mounted in any orientation. Connect the
valve to the vacuum system with standard NW coupling components or BSP male threaded pipe or adaptors coated
with PTFE tape.
The operating handle cannot be re-orientated as the stop mechanism will not permit it to operate or operate fully
in any other assembly mode.
WARNING
Take appropriate safety precautions when installing the valve in a system which has pumped
dangerous process substances.
WARNING
Do not open or close this valve until it is attached by both ends to a system as the rotary ball
mechanism can cause injury to any appendage inserted into the mechanism.
WARNING
The handle cover is manufactured from PVC. Do not store or use near an ignition source.

Operation
4 Operation
Move the lever until it is inline or parallel to the valve’s axis and the valve is fully open. To fully close the valve,
operate the lever until it is at 90 degrees to the valve axis.

Maintenance
C360-00-880 Issue E
5Maintenance
5.1 General information
The IBV ball valves are designed to require little user maintenance. Edwards recommends periodic cleaning and
adjustment of the valve operating shaft gland nut after approximately 30,000 cycles. There are no parts available
for spares, as removal and refitting of the seals requires specialised factory tooling.
5.2 Safety information
Observe all appropriate safety precautions when performing maintenance on a valve from a system which has pumped
dangerous process substances.
Ensure that maintenance is performed in a well ventilated area.
Do not use abrasive or reactive chemical substances to clean the valve. Do not use solvents to clean the seals.
Dispose of all components which have been contaminated by dangerous process substances in a safe manner.
5.3 Fault finding
Table 2 - Fault finding
Symptoms Check
Valve will not open Is the valve blocked?
Valve leaks Is the valve full of debris?
Is the shaft seal nut loose?

C360-00-880 Issue E
6 Storage and disposal
6.1 Storage
Place protective covers over the valve ports and store the IBV ball valve in cool, dry conditions until required for use.
6.2 Disposal
Dispose of the IBV ball valve and any components removed from it safely in accordance with local and national safety
and environmental requirements.
Particular care must be taken with components which have been contaminated with dangerous process substances.
WARNING
Do not incinerate the valve. Incineration may cause emission of noxious fumes.

Return the equipment or components for service
Before you send your equipment to us for service or for any other reason, you must send us a
completed Declaration of Contamination of Vacuum Equipment and Components – Form HS2. The
HS2 form tells us if any substances found in the equipment are hazardous, which is important for
the safety of our employees and all other people involved in the service of your equipment. The
hazard information also lets us select the correct procedures to service your equipment.
We provide instructions for completing the form in the Declaration of Contamination of Vacuum
equipment and Components – Procedure HS1.
If you are returning a vacuum pump, note the following:
 If a pump is configured to suit the application, make a record of the configuration before
returning the pump. All replacement pumps will be supplied with default factory settings.
 Do not return a pump with accessories fitted. Remove all accessories and retain them for
future use.
 The instruction in the returns procedure to drain all fluids does not apply to the lubricant in
pump oil reservoirs.
Download the latest documents from www.edwardsvacuum.com/HSForms/, follow the procedure in
HS1, fill in the electronic HS2 form, print it, sign it, and return the signed copy to Edwards.
Note: If we do not receive a completed HS2 form, we will not accept the return of the
equipment.
