2.1 Transport and packing
SOGEVAC
®
vacuum pumps pass a rigorous operating test in our factory and are
packed to avoid transport damage.
Please check packing on delivery for transport damage.
Packing materials should be disposed off according to environmental laws or re-
used.
These operating instructions are part of the consignment.
The connection ports are blanked off by plastic protective caps or self-adhesives.
Take these caps or self-adhesives away before turning on the pump.
The necessary LVO120 oil is shipped in a separate can.
Use only lifting devices appropriated to the pump weight. Check name plate. Do
not use other pump elements than the lifting lug as handles.
2.2 Mounting orientation
See required space on chart in paragraph 1.2.
Pumps which have been filled with oil must only be moved in the upright position
(horizontally). Otherwise oil may escape. The angle of slope may not be over 10°
max. Avoid any other orientations while moving the pump.
2.3 Storage
Before stocking the pump for a long time put it back in its original condition (blank
off inlet and exhaust ports with the shipping seals, drain the oil sump) and store
the pump in a dry place at room temperature.
If the pump has been shelved for over one year, standard maintenance must be
run and the oil must be exchanged too before the pump is put in to service once
more. We recommend that you contact the service from Leybold.
