General Information
This equipment is destined for use by professionals. The user should
read this instruction manual and any other additional information
supplied by Agilent before operating the equipment. Agilent will not be
held responsible for any events occurring due to non-compliance, even
partial, with these instructions, improper use by untrained persons,
non-authorized interference with the equipment or any action contrary

The TPS-compact is an integrated system with a turbo-molecular pump
for high and ultra-high vacuum applications associated with its relevant
controller and its primary pump. The system can pump any type of gas
or gas compound. It is not suitable for pumping liquids or solid particles.
The pumping action is obtained through a high speed turbine driven by
a high-performance 3-phase electric motor. The TPS-compact is free of
contaminating agents and, therefore, is suitable for applications
requiring a "clean" vacuum.
The TPS-compact is equipped with auxiliary connectors to control the
vent valve, to be controlled from a remote site by means of an host
computer connected through a serial line.
The following paragraphs contain all the information necessary to
guarantee the safety of the operator when using the equipment. Detailed
