1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Scope and definitions

This manual provides installation instructions for the Edwards range of bellows, flexible pipelines and braided flexible

pipelines. The Item Numbers for the products are listed in Section 2. You must use the bellows, flexible pipelines and

braided flexible pipelines as specified in this manual.

Read this manual before you install the bellows, flexible pipelines and braided flexible pipelines. 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 process.

The units used throughout this manual conform to the SI international system of units of measurement.

1.2 Description

1.2.1 Bellows

Note: To install bellows safely, you must follow the guidelines given in Section 3.2.

Bellows are short, thin-walled components with deep convolutions. They are used to reduce the transfer of vibration

from a pump to a vacuum system.

1.2.2 Flexible pipelines

Note: To install flexible pipelines safely, you must follow the guidelines given in Section 3.3.

Flexible pipelines have a thicker wall section and shallower convolutions than bellows. Flexible pipelines provide a

convenient method of connecting vacuum system components and help to compensate for misalignment or small

movements in rigid vacuum pipelines. Flexible pipelines can be formed into relatively sharp bends and will hold their

position, as shown in Figure 1; minimum bend radii do not apply.

Flexible pipelines are intended for installation in static systems. They are not suitable for repeated flexing. This could

cause fatigue failure.

You must not use flexible pipelines on dry pump exhausts.

WARNING

Warnings are given where failure to observe the instruction could result in injury or death to

people.

1.2.3 Braided flexible pipelines

Note: To install braided flexible pipelines safely, you must follow the guidelines given in Section 3.4.

Braided flexible pipelines have an outer protective layer of woven stainless steel braid. They are suitable for use as

exhaust pipelines on Edwards dry pumps and other applications where there is significant gas pulsation or the

possibility of high gas pressures.

Braided flexible pipelines are intended for installation in static systems. They are not suitable for repeated flexing.

This could cause fatigue failure.

INSTALLATION

C105-11–880 Issue D

3 INSTALLATION

3.1 General

We recommend that you use only Edwards flexible pipelines with other Edwards vacuum products. Bellows, flexible

pipelines and braided flexible pipelines are available in different lengths and flange sizes to suit your installation (see

Section 2).

3.2 Bellows

Always install bellows in a straight line with both ends rigidly constrained. When installed correctly, the bellows can

withstand a small positive internal pressure, as specified in Section 2. Do not use bellows on dry pump exhausts.

3.3 Flexible pipelines

When you install a flexible pipeline, use the shortest possible length and avoid unnecessary bends. Do not use flexible

pipelines on dry pump exhausts.

3.4 Braided flexible pipelines

When you install a braided flexible pipeline, make sure that you observe the minimum bend radius data in Section 2.

If you do not, the braid will become loose and will no longer support the internal flexible pipeline. This may result

in fracture of the pipeline due to fatigue or overpressure failure.

WARNING

Use the correct flexible component for your application. If you do not, a pressure or fatigue failure

could cause the component to leak and release dangerous process substances to atmosphere.
