Installing the Vacuum Pump

The Gemini requires an external vacuum system that meets these specifications:

Vacuum source achieving 20 x 10

-3

 mmHg (or better) at the instrument inlet for oil-based or 

oil-free pumps. 

For oil-based pumps: an anti-suckback valve is required to prevent oil from being admitted 
into the Gemini should there be a power failure. A device to reduce oil vapor backstreaming is 
also recommended.

Two types of pumps are available from Micromeritics:

Use the appropriate instructions for the customer’s vacuum pump:

“Oil-Based Pump” on page 6

“High-Vacuum/Oil-Free Pump Combination” on page 16

“Non-Micromeritics Provided Vacuum Pump” on page 18

Oil-based pump

 

High-vacuum and oil-free pump combination
