*1 : The magnetic bearing output stops and the rotor is descended on the touch down bearing
*2 : The driver output stops and the rotor continue rotating by inertia.
It may take several hours to stop. To stop the STP pump quickly, close the vacuum valve at the outlet port flange and introduce gas from the purge port into the STP pump.
