damage to the equipment, associated equipment and/or process.

Note: Items you must follow during operation and maintenance.

Throughout this manual, page, figure and table numbers are sequential.

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

measurement; US equivalent units of measurement are also given.

The following IEC warning labels/symbols appear on the STP Pump and Instruction Manual:

Warning -This symbol denotes general warning

Refer to accompanying documentation and instruction manual.

Warning - Hot surface

This symbol denotes the risk of burns.

Warning - Heavy object

This symbol denotes the risk of low back pain and fall.

INTRODUCTION

Warning - Hazardous Voltage

This symbol denotes the risk of electrical shock.

Protective earth (ground).

Connect the ground wire to this terminal to prevent electric shock.

Note: An alarm function is incorporated into this STP series. Alarm and cautionary messages are

displayed on the LCD of the STP control unit. Note that the words "WARNING" and

"CAUTION" displayed on the LCD indicate the need for overhaul of the pump or precautions

during the operation. They do not have the same meaning as the much more serious

INTRODUCTION

1.4 Precautions for safe operation of the STP pump

1.4.1 Usable gases

1. Chlorine or fluorine system gases can be used in corrosion resistant pumps. When you use the

following gases, contact Edwards.

•Gases including alkaline metals except Li gas.

•Gases including Ga, Hg, In, or Sn.

•HBr gas.

2. Non-corrosion resistant pump cannot use the above gases including chlorine and fluorine system

gases.

WARNING

To prevent an accident, confirm the characteristics of gases to be used, referring to the

Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) you obtain from the gas supplier, and, keep MSDS

and a safety advice of gas supplier.

WARNING

Warn of the danger of the gas with the warning label when the use gas is hazardous

WARNING chemical material.

WARNING

Secure safety by wearing personal protective equipment when using the gas which

might influence damage health. In addition, take appropriate measure for depending

upon the properties of the gas to be used.

CAUTION

NEVER use any gas that is not specified as usable in this Manual. The use of such gas may

corrode the STP pump and damage it.

CAUTION

Introduce a dry N2gas (purge gas) to protect the inside of the STP pump when using reactive or

corrosive gas, gas including hydrogen. The use of these gases may result in product damage.

CAUTION

Cool the STP pump to prevent the STP pump from overheating when pumping gases.
