11. REFILL OPTION
PG2400 and PG11000 purifiers can be refilled with new purification
material (not available for all intended gas types). Contact Pall
Corporation Microelectronics for details and technical assistance.
Use of Pall purifiers that are a part of a manifold (PG2400-MAN
and PG11000-MAN) allows for easy removal of the purifier without
the need to shut down the process gas line. Closing the inlet and
outlet valves on the manifold header while opening the by-pass
valve allows the process gas flow through the manifold header
even if the purifier and purifier inlet and outlet valves are removed.
Note, process gas that bypasses the purifier will not be purified
and therefore might not meet the required purity specification for
downstream equipment.
12. DISPOSAL PROCEDURE
It is the customer’s responsibility to dispose of the purifier in
accordance with all Federal, State, and local regulations.
If the purifier is exposed to toxic gases or gases containing toxic
elements, the purification material may contain these toxic materials
or reaction products thereof. It may exhibit the characteristic of
toxicity as defined in the hazardous waste regulations 40 CFR 261
Subpart C or D. Refer to applicable SDS for the specific toxic
gas in use to determine appropriate containment and disposal
requirements.
