2.1 Installation
The TRIVAC D 5 E - D 16 E can be placed freely on a flat
and horizontal surface.
The rubber elements under the pump’s base prevent the
pump from slipping. If the pump is to be permanently
attached, this may be done by making use of the holes
in the rubber elements and a threaded bolt or similar.
The inclination of the pump (without additio-
nal fixing means) and with possibly atta-
ched standard accessories must not
exceed an angle of 10 ° from the vertical
axis.
The rubber elements act as vibration absor-
bers. For this reason they must not be com-
pressed by the screws. When installing the
pump you must ensure accessibility of all
connections and controls.
Select a place for the pump which ensures a sufficient air
circulation for cooling the pump (keep front and rear
sides unobstructed).
The ambient temperature around the pump should not
exceed 50
°
C (in the case of USA and Japan motors
40 °C) and not drop below 10
°
C (see Section 2.5.3).
If required the crane eye or the handle may be removed.
The oil filling has been included separately.
Before operating the pump you must fill in
the correct quantity of oil (see Section 3.2).
2.2 Connection to the
System
Before connecting the pump, the shipping seals on the
connection flanges (6/1 and 6/2) must be removed.
If residues of adhesives are present on the connecting
flanges you must remove these using a suitable solvent
like alcohol, for example.
Insert the dirt sieve (6/8) with the O-ring.
The intake and exhaust lines are fitted with standard
small flanges. The connection flanges must be clean and
undamaged.
The intake line and the exhaust line must be connected
using corrugated pipes or vacuum hoses so that no
mechanical forces can be transferred to the pump.
The intake line must be clean. Any deposits in the intake
line will tend to degas and impair the attainable vacuum
pressures.
The cross section of the intake and exhaust line must at
least be of the same diameter as that of the pump
connections.
An intake line which is too small in diameter will throttle
the pumping speed.
An exhaust line which is too small in diameter can result
in the formation of overpressures within the pump. Pos-
sible consequences are damaged shaft seals and possi-
bly also an oil leak.
The pressure in the oil box must not exceed 1.5 bar
(abs.)
When pumping vapours we strongly recommend the
installation of a condensate separator on the suction
side and also on the exhaust side.
The exhaust line must be laid so that it slopes down and
away from pump (lower than the pump) to prevent any
condensate from flowing back into the pump. If a sloping
line can not be installed, a separator must be fitted.
When the oil mist is to be removed from the exhaust gas
flow we recommend the installation of an exhaust filter.
When pumping inert gases the pump’s gas ballast inlet
can directly be connected to the system by an adaptor
(for this the gas ballast knob must be removed).
Intake and exhaust port are of the screwed type and can
be replaced by direct connection to the system.
