CAUTION!
Use inert gas free from dust, particles or humidity (like Nitrogen) for venting the
pump. The pressure at the vent port must be less than 2 bar (above atmospheric
pressure).
WARNING! When employing the pump for pumping toxic, flammable, or radioactive
gases, please follow the required procedures for each gas disposal. Do not
use the pumping system in presence of explosive gases
Switching on and Use of TPS-Compact
To switch on the TPS-compact it is sufficient to supply the mains and
then move the external switch to ON position. The integrated
controller automatically recognizes the mains presence and start up
the pump.
At the first start up it is recommended to use the "Soft Start" mode by
enabling it on the controller. For the following start ups it is
recommended to disable the "Soft Start" mode. For the "Soft Start"
mode activation procedure, see the paragraph "Signal Description" in
the chapter "Technical Information".
The blue LED “STATUS” located on the TPS-compact base rear panel
indicates with its flashing frequency the system operating conditions:
§
with no flashing: the pump is normally rotating;
§
slowly flashing (period of about 400 ms): the system is in ramp,
or in braking, or in Stop, or in “Waiting for interlock” status;
§
fast flashing (period of about 200 ms): error condition.
See the appendix "Technical Information" for a detailed description
of the TPS-compact control panel.
