1Introduction
1.1 Scope and definitions
This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instructions for the Edwards iXL120 Pump. You must
use your pump as specified in this manual otherwise the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.
Read this manual before you install and operate your pump. Important safety information is highlighted as WARNING
and CAUTION instructions; you must obey these instructions. 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/or process.
The units throughout this manual conform to the SI international system of units of measurement.
The following warning labels are on the pump and in this manual:
The following two warning labels, Pressurised and Risk of explosion, only appear in this manual:
Material Safety Data Sheets for chemicals supplied by Edwards can be obtained by contacting Edwards.
WARNING
Warnings are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in injury or death to
people.
Warning - Refer to accompanying
documentation. Warning - Risk of electric shock.
Warning - Hot surfaces. Warning - Moving parts present.
Warning - Heavy object.
Warning - Use protective equipment.
Protective Earth (ground).
Warning - Pressurised. Warning - Risk of explosion.

Introduction
1.2 Applications
The iXL120 is a low energy, compact dry pump system that can be mounted on tool or remotely. It is designed to give
extremely low cost of ownership. The iXL120 is intended only for use on clean duty applications as defined in Figure 1.
The iXL120 is not intended for use with potentially flammable, corrosive, toxic or other hazardous gases since these
gases or oxygen can mix within the pump system. Users must complete their own risk assessment and implement any
necessary controls for pumping potentially flammable gases. Edwards can offer advice and assistance in matching
your pump to your application. If you use the iXL120 system on an application for which it is not intended it may
invalidate your warranty.

1.3 The iXL120 system
The iXL120 is a compact dry pump system that can be mounted on tool or remotely. The pumping system can be
controlled from the front control panel, a PDT accessory or by the tool via a MicroTIM.

Introduction
Figure 3 - The front control and indicator panel
1.4 Priority of control
The iXL120 system can be controlled by one of a number of sources: the front control panel (refer to Figure 3), a
Pump Display Terminal (PDT) accessory or from the tool via the MicroTIM. Only one of these can have control of the
iXL120 system at any one time. That is, once one of these has control of the iXL120 system, control requests from
the others are denied until control is released by the first.
An LED is provided on the front panel, which illuminates to indicate that the pump is ‘in control’. An LED is provided
on the rear panel which illuminates to indicate that the tool is ‘in control’. The PDT accessory can identify which
source is ‘in control’ and also has an LED to indicate if the PDT itself is ‘in control’.

4 Power on indicator LED (green)

3 Installation
3.1 Safety
Potential hazards on the dry pumping system include electricity, hot surfaces, process chemicals, Fomblin oil,
nitrogen and water under pressure.
Detailed safety information is given in Section 5.1 and the Edwards publication ‘Vacuum Pump and Vacuum System
Safety’ (publication number P400-40-100).
Only Edwards trained engineers may install the dry pumping system. Users can be trained by Edwards to
conduct the tasks described in this manual, contact your local service centre or Edwards for more
information.
Do not remove the temporary cover or blanking plate from the dry pumping system inlet and exhaust until
you are ready to connect the dry pumping system to your vacuum or exhaust-extraction system. Do not
operate the dry pumping system unless the inlet and exhaust are connected to your vacuum and exhaust-
extraction system.
Vent and purge the process system (if the dry pumping system is to replace an existing pumping system) with
nitrogen for 15 minutes before you start installation work. Refer to Section 3.6.
Disconnect the other components in the process system from the electrical supply so that they cannot be
operated accidentally.
Electrical, nitrogen and water supplies are all potentially hazardous energy sources. Before carrying out any
maintenance the supply of these sources should be locked and tagged out.
Route and secure cables, hoses and pipework during installation to avoid possible trip hazards.
The pump system includes provision for secondary containment of oil and water leaks. Any unintended
overflows or spills must be removed immediately to avoid risk of slips.
Obey all national and local rules and safety regulations when you install the dry pumping system. Consult
Edwards publication number P400-40-100 (Vacuum Pump and Vacuum System Safety) before you pump
hazardous materials. This publication is available on request: contact your supplier or Edwards.
WARNING
Obey the safety instructions given below and take the appropriate precautions. If you do not, you
can cause injury to people and damage to equipment.
WARNING
The system should not be operated with the Edwards enclosure panels removed.

Installation
3.2 Removing the iXL120 system from the packaging
WARNING
You must use suitable lifting equipment to move the system. It is too heavy to lift by hand.
WARNING
Do not exceed the topple angle of 10° when moving the pump. Wheel the system on its castors to
move it into its operating position. The system should only be wheeled short distances over flat
surfaces. If the floor surface is uneven or has obstacles the system should be lifted with suitable
lifting equipment.
1. Cut open bag and expose
the brackets which are used
to fasten the pump to the
pallet.
2. Remove the fasteners at the
brackets securing the pump
to the pallet.
3. Remove the brackets from
the pump. 4. Reattach the brackets at the top front right and top
rear left corners using 2
fixings for each bracket.
5. Lift pump using suitable
lifting equipment, as
shown.
6. Wind up jacking feet until
flush with bottom of chassis
to expose the castors to
allow the pump to be
manoeuvred.
7. Lower pump to ground and
remove lifting brackets. If
stacking pumps then leave
these brackets in place and
refer to section 3.4.
8. Store the brackets under
pump frame for later use.
9. The iXL120 system is ready
to be located; please refer
to Section 3.3 of the
manual.
