INTRODUCTION
Each ELIMINATOR vacuum pump has been factory tested to guarantee 25 microns
(25,400 Microns = 1 Inch of Hg) or better, and listed CFM performance The serial
number has been recorded Complete and mail the enclosed Warranty Registration

NOTE:
ELIMINATOR pumps are not to be used on Ammonia or Lithium Bromide
(salt water) systems Pump maintenance is the responsibility of the owner
MOTOR SPECIFICATIONS
Pump and oil must be above 30°F Line voltage must be equal to motor nameplate
±10% Normal operating temperature is approximately 160°F, which is hot to the
touch Line voltage and ambient conditions can slightly affect this Motor has
automatic resetting thermal overload protection
The ELIMINATOR is designed for continuous duty and will run for extended periods
without overheating
OPERATION
The following procedures will prevent oil from being drawn into the pump cartridge
and creating hard start-up
Start-up:
Close both sides of manifold and make connection to vacuum pump or
auxiliary blank-off equipment Start pump
Shut down:
Crack open unused port to break vacuum Allow pump to run
2-3 seconds Shut down and remove hose connections and cap intakes
PUMP MAINTENANCE
In order to make the best use of your investment, familiarize yourself with the
features and operating instructions before starting pump With routine care and
following proper maintenance guidelines, your ELIMINATOR will give you years
of reliable service ELIMINATOR pumps are designed for deep vacuum work in air
conditioning and refrigeration systems
For a complete overview of proper care and pump maintenance, refer to the
Keeping the Life in your Pump
guide available online at www.jbind.com.
Adding Oil
Pump oil acts simultaneously as a coolant, lubricant and sealant
1 Slowly add oil until oil level rises to the top of the oil level line
2 Replace oil fill plug
If oil is too low, you will hear air out of the exhaust If the oil level is too high,
excess oil will be blown out of the exhaust
IMPORTANT:
Use oil specifically refined for deep vacuum pumps Using oil not
refined for deep vacuum pumps and/or operating with contaminated oil will void
warranty
Pump oil should be changed after each use If system is heavily contaminated,
oil may have to be changed several times during evacuation After initial fill up,
it is best to check oil level with pump running
After evacuation, oil contains rust forming water and corrosive acids Drain
immediately while pump is warm
Changing Oil
To reach deep vacuum, ELIMINATOR pumps need clean, moisture-free oil
throughout evacuation Care should be taken to avoid contact on skin and clothing
when changing oil Used oil should be disposed of in the DV-T1 TANK oil caddy
after every evacuation while the pump is warm and the oil is thin
1 Place the TANK on a level surface Unscrew black plug counterclockwise in drain
base to open
2 Place vacuum pump in the cradle and drain pump
3 Once the pump has finished draining, turn the black cap clockwise to close after
every use (the TANK can hold up to five oil changes)
4 Close drain on pump Remove oil fill cap and fill to top of oil level line with
BLACK GOLD Pump Oil Replace oil fill cap
Flushing Oil
1 Always drain pump before flushing If the oil is badly contaminated, flushing
may be necessary
2 Slowly pour 1/3 to 1/2 cup of BLACK GOLD Pump Oil into the intake connection
while pump is running
3 Repeat as required until contamination is removed from oil reservoir, pump
rotors, vanes and housing
4 Dispose of all oil used in flushing of pump
WARNING: DO NOT START PUMP BEFORE ADDING OIL
IMPORTANT: OIL LEVEL MUST BE ABOVE
