The pressure balance valve will not protect the pump from thermal over-
load if opened continuously.
1.1.4 Lubricants
RUVAC WH/WHU pumps described here are, as standard, prepared either
for operation with synthetic oil or the special lubricant perfluoropolyether
PFPE). Other types of oil (white oil, for example) upon request.
If synthetic oil and PFPE come into contact with each other they will emul-
sify. That’s why the pumps must only be run with the type of lubricant
specified for the pump. If you want to change the type of lubricant please
contact Leybold.
1.2 Standard Specification
RUVAC WH/WHU are supplied for vertical flow.
WH/WHU 4400 and 7000:
Before delivery the oil has been drained out. The
quantity of synthetic oil or PFPE which is required for operation, is supplied
