DRAFT 1/19/17
Installation
Safety
Do not remove or modify any safety or insulating equip-
ment from the pump. To do so may create a serious safety
hazard and may void the warranty.
Startup
1. Check that the inlet screen is installed before begin-
ning operation.
2. Operate the pump at an ambient temperature of 5
°
C
to 40
°
C (41
°
F to 104
°
F), otherwise damage to the
pump or shortened operating life may result.
Electrical Connections
Fuse Replacement Procedure
The pump can be configured for low voltage
, 100 VAC to
120 VAC, or for high voltage, 200 VAC to 240 VAC.
The pump as delivered from the factory is configured for
high voltage. To change the pump voltage follow this pro-
cedure:
1. Verify your electrical supply voltage and disconnect
from the electrical supply.
2. Using a small flat blade screwdriver, slide the line
voltage selector switch to either 115 for low voltage,
or 230 for high voltage operation. Re-connect the
pump to the electrical supply.
WARNING
❑
This pump is capable of pumping
and exhausting air and inert gases only.
It is not designed to pump explosive,
flammable, corrosive or particulate
forming gases. They can cause bodily
injury, explosion, or fire.
❑
Install in an area that is not exposed
to rain, steam, or excessive humidity.
They can cause electric shock, short
circuits, and severe bodily injury.
❑
Before reconfiguring the pump
voltage, or inspecting or servicing the
pump, be sure the electrical supply is
disconnected.
❑
The gas ballast must be sealed when-
ever pumping any gas not intended to
be vented to the atmosphere.
❑
An exhaust silencer option is avail-
able for those applications in which it is
desirable to diminish the sound level
produced by the pump.
❑
To prevent bodily injury, avoid
exposing any part of the human body to
vacuum.
CAUTION
Although the pump can pump trace
particulates normally found in the
atmosphere, it is not designed to
process solids, chemicals, powders,
solvents, condensates, or other particu-
lates. They can damage the equipment,
degrade its performance, or shorten its
useful life.
WARNING
Do not insert a finger or any foreign
object in the path of the fan; serious
personal injury may result or the pump
may be damaged.
CAUTION
Do not block the fan ducts. Blocking
these ducts can cause pump overheat-
ing. A pump surface temperature in
excess of 65
°
C (150
°
F) is potentially
damaging. If such conditions are
observed, turn the pump off and allow it
to cool. Disassemble, inspect for dam-
age, and repair, if necessary.
WARNING
Disconnect the pump from electrical
power mains before attempting to
change the voltage configuration.
