3 Installation
It is essential to observe the following instructions step by step to ensure
safe start-up. Start-up may only be conducted by trained specialists.
The standard pump is not suitable for installation in explosion hazard ATEX
areas. Please contact us, if you are planning such an application. Before
installing the pump you must reliably disconnect it from the electrical power
supply and prevent the pump form running up inadvertently.
Observe all safety regulations.
3.1 Setting up
The pump can be set up on any flat, horizontal surface. Under the four feet,
there are metric threaded holes for securing the pump.
The oil level cannot be read properly if the pump is tilted. Pump risk to run
dry and oil level switch may not react correctly.
The SOGEVAC
®
pump can pump gases and vapors, provided that the gas
ballast valve is installed and open and the pump has reached its operating
temperature.
Pump in function is hot and some surfaces could reach a temperature
higher than 80°C (176°F). There is a risk of burn by touching. Take note of
warning labels on the pump.
The pump must be kept clean (not dust deposit).
3.2 Conforming use
The SOGEVAC pumps are intended to be used on clean processes, at low
inlet pressure.
In normal operation, the SOGEVAC pumps operated typically below 10 mbar
inlet pressure or at ultimate pressure with open gas ballast (for pumps having
a gas ballast). Continuous duty is possible.
In the below listed abnormal conditions (but not limited to) the pump may
stop due to overheating of the power electronics or motor.
■
Continuous operation at high inlet pressure
■
Restricted, clogged or blocked exhaust filter or exhaust line
■
Out of tolerance supply voltage
■
Unsuitable, polluted or too old oil
■
Too low oil level
■
Too high ambient temperature
■
Clogged fan hoods or impeded fresh air circulation
