Storage
Short-term Storage
•
Make sure that the suction connection and the gas discharge are
closed (leave the provided plugs in)
•
Store the vacuum pump
−
If possible in original packaging,
−
indoors,
−
dry,
−
dust free and
−
vibration free.
Conservation
In case of adverse ambient conditions (e.g. aggressive atmosphere,
frequent temperature changes) conserve the vacuum pump immedi-
ately. In case of favourable ambient conditions conserve the vacuum
pump if a storage of more than 3 months is scheduled.
•
Make sure that all ports are firmly closed; seal all ports that are
not sealed with PTFE-tape, gaskets or o-rings with adhesive tape
Note : VCI stands for “volatile corrosion inhibitor”. VCI-products (film,
paper, cardboard, foam) evaporate a substance that condenses in mo-
lecular thickness on the packed good and by its electro-chemical prop-
erties effectively suppresses corrosion on metallic surfaces. However,
VCI-products may attack the surfaces of plastics and elastomers. Seek
advice from your local packaging dealer! Busch uses CORTEC
VCI 126 R film for the overseas packaging of large equipment.
•
Wrap the vacuum pump in VCI film
•
Store the vacuum pump
−
If possible in original packaging,
−
indoors,
−
dry,
−
dust free and
−
vibration free.
For commissioning after conservation:
•
Make sure that all remains of adhesive tape are removed from
the ports
•
Commission the vacuum pump as described in the chapter Instal-
lation and Commissioning (

Installation and Commission-
ing
Installation Prerequisites
•
Make sure that the integration of the vacuum pump is carried
out such that the essential safety requirements of the Machine
Directive 2006/42/EC are complied with (in the responsibility of
the designer of the machinery into which the vacuum pump is to
be incorporated;

U
Declaration of Con-
formity)
Mounting Position and Space
•
Make sure that the following ambient conditions will be complied
with:
−
Ambient temperature range: -30 … +50 °C
−
Ambient pressure: atmospheric
•
Make sure that the environmental conditions comply with the
protection class of the drive motor (IP54)
If the machine is installed at an altitude greater than 1000 meters above
sea level:
♦
Contact your Busch representative, the motor should be de-
rated or the ambient temperature limited.
Note : The bypass valve must always be on top position, turn the mo-
tor of the vacuum pump if necessary (
➔
figure).
•
Make sure that the vacuum pump will be placed or mounted
horizontally
•
Make sure that the base for placement / mounting base is even
•
Make sure that in order to warrant a sufficient cooling there will
be a clearance of minimum 2 cm between the vacuum pump and
nearby walls
•
Make sure that the vacuum pump cannot be hit by falling or
moving objects
•
Make sure that no heat sensitive parts (plastics, wood, card-
board, paper, electronics) will touch the surface of the vacuum
pump
•
Make sure that the installation space or location is vented such
that a sufficient cooling of the vacuum pump is warranted
•
Make sure that the vacuum pump will not be touched inadvert-
ently during operation, provide a guard if appropriate
Suction Connection
In case the inlet gas can contain dust or other foreign solid particles:
♦
Make sure that a suitable filter (5 micron or less) is installed
upstream the vacuum pump
♦
Make sure that the filter is sufficiently ATEX-qualified (elec-
trically conductive, with equipotential bonding etc.)
CAUTION
In case of non-compliance with the installation prerequisites, par-
ticularly in case of insufficient cooling:
Risk of damage or destruction of the vacuum pump and adjoining
plant components!
Risk of injury!
The installation prerequisites must be complied with.
CAUTION
Intruding foreign objects or liquids can destroy the vacuum pump.
CAUTION
During operation the surface of the vacuum pump may reach
temperatures of more than 70 °C.
Risk of burns!
