pressed once again. 

Once the first boiling point has 
been found an exchange on the 
manual mode is possible by pres-
sing the MAN key. The „bP“ value 
will be retained as temporary pres-
sure setpoint.

The automatic mode can be stop-
ped by pressing the STOP key
at any time.

6.  Changing of Pressure unit

The physical unit indicating the pressu-
re can be chosen between mbar and
torr.

When the controller is switched 
off, press the AUTO-Key 

 

and 

switch on the contoller with the 
On/Off-Switch 

 

at the same time.

With the DOWN-Key 

 

and the 

UP-Key 

  

you can choose bet-

ween the units hPA (mbar) and torr.

The LEDs for mbar 

 

and torr 

show the selected pressure unit.

Press STOP-Key 

.

The new pressure unit will be 
stored after 5 seconds.

The contoller changes to the 
operating mode.

7. Calibration

Whilst pressing the SET key,
switch on the Vacuum Controller.

The "mode" display shows "CAL“.

If the "mode" display does not
show "CAL“, press SET key.

The "mode" display shows 
"CAL“.

Press the 

UP

key.

 

The "setp“ display shows "H1“ .

Insert the actual atmospheric pres-
sure, using the UP or DOWN key.

Press SET key to override.

8. Trouble 

Shooting

Sufficient vacuum is not reached

Possible reasons:

Tube connections are not tight, or
an external valve is open.

LABOBASE® Systems

All workstations together demand 
a flow rate that exceeds the capa-

city of the pump.

Fault of central vacuum system/
vacuum pump (see LABOBASE 
Operating Manual).

LABOPORT®-Systems

See LABOPORT Operating Manual.

Vacuum controller does not work

Possible reasons:

Vacuum controller is not 
switched on.

Mistake in operating the vacuum 
controller.

The fuse of the vacuum controller
has been triggered.

After a short period the vacuum
controller is re-actived automati-
cally.

For LABOPORT Systems:
see LABOPORT Operating Manual. 

Vacuum Controller shows 
unrealistic values
