by using a pipe DN10 (

12 mm): 

3 m

Additionally, it is allowed to install the following approved reservoirs 
between nozzle and gas recovery pump: 

snubber 250ml of the manufacturer Scheidt&Bachmann, No.
0582543 (documented in confidence test report PTB Ex 05-
45017)

Condensate separator of the manufacturer Fafnir, No. XO
013001 (documented in confidence test report PTB Ex 05-
45027)

Observe the following installation conditions for reservoirs: 

distance of the reservoir to the gas recovery pump: 0,3 m to 2,5
m

Min. length of the pipe between hose and reservoir: 0,5 m

Principle of Operation 

The vacuum pump works on the rotating vane principle. 

A circular rotor is positioned centrically on the shaft of the vacuum 
pump. The shaft of the vacuum pump is driven by the drive motor shaft 
by means of a flexible coupling. 

The rotor rotates in an also circular, fixed cylinder, the centreline of 
which is offset from the centreline of the rotor such that the rotor and 
the inner wall of the cylinder almost touch along a line. Vanes, sliding 
in slots in the rotor, separate the space between the rotor and the cyl-
inder into chambers. At any time gas is sucked in and at almost any 
time ejected. Therefore, the vacuum pump works almost pulsation 
free. 

By the bypass valve (f) a preset differential pressure on the suction 
side will not be exceeded. 

The vacuum pump compresses the inlet gas absolutely oil-free. A lu-
brication of the pump chamber is neither necessary nor allowed. 

Cooling 

The vacuum pump is cooled by 

radiation of heat from the surface of the vacuum pump

the process gas

Start Controls 

The vacuum pump comes without start controls. The control of the 
vacuum pump is to be provided in the course of installation. 

Safety 

Intended Use 

Definition:

 For the purpose of these instructions, “handling” the vac-

uum pump means the transport, storage, installation, commissioning, 
influence on operating conditions, maintenance, troubleshooting and 
overhaul of the vacuum. 

The vacuum pump is intended for industrial use. It shall be handled 
only by qualified personnel. 

The allowed media and operational limits (

 

page 3: Product De-

scription) and the installation prerequisites (

 

page 5: Installation 

Prerequisites) of the vacuum pump shall be observed both by the 
manufacturer of the machinery into which the vacuum pump is to be 
incorporated and by the operator. 

In particular the intended use in potentially explosive areas, i.e. either 
inside the vacuum pump or in its adjacency potentially explosive at-
mosphere can occur, requires that the vacuum pump is equipped ac-
cordingly and carries the Ex-mark and that the associated documenta-
tion acc. to the directive 2014/34/EU is available. 

The maintenance instructions shall be observed. 

Prior to handling the vacuum pump these installation and operating 
instructions shall be read and understood. If anything remains to be 
clarified please contact your Busch representative! 

Safety Notes 

The vacuum pump has been designed and manufactured according to 
state-of-the-art methods. Nevertheless, residual risks may remain. 
These operating instructions highlight potential hazards where appro-
priate. Safety notes are tagged with one of the keywords DANGER, 
WARNING and CAUTION as follows:  

Noise Emission 

For the sound pressure level in free field according to EN ISO 2151 

page 2: Technical Data.

Transport 

Transport in Packaging 

Vacuum pumps individually packed in cardboard boxes can be carried 
by hand. 

Packed on a pallet the vacuum pump is to be transported with a fork-
lift. 

Transport without Packaging 

In case the vacuum pump is packed in a cardboard box with inflated 
cushions: 

Remove the inflated cushions from the box

In case the vacuum pump is packed in a cardboard box cushioned with 
rolled corrugated cardboard: 

Remove the corrugated cardboard from the box

In case the vacuum pump is laid in foam: 

Remove the foam

Grasp the vacuum pump with both hands

Check the vacuum pump for transport damage

Note

: Do not operate the vacuum pump in case of transport damage! 

 DANGER 

Disregard of this safety note will always lead to accidents with 
fatal or serious injuries. 

 WARNING 

Disregard of this safety note may lead to accidents with fatal or 
serious injuries. 

 CAUTION 

Disregard of this safety note may lead to accidents with minor in-
juries or property damage.
