2.1 Transport and packaging
Sogevac
®
vacuum pumps pass a rigorous operating test in our factory and
are packaged to avoid transport damages.
Please check packaging on delivery for transport damages.
Packing materials should be disposed off according to environmental laws or
re-cycled.
These operating instructions are part of the consignment.
The connection ports are blanked off by plastic protective caps or self-adhe-
sives. Take these caps or self-adhesives away before turning on the pump.
For SV200 and SV300, the pump is supplied with drive motor in ready to use
condition ; it is supplied with GS77 (on equivalent) oil.
2.2 Mounting orientation
See required space on drawings 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.
Only use the lifting lugs which are provided on the pump to lift the pump with
the specified lifting devices.
Make sure that these have been installed safety. Use suitable lifting
equipment. Make sure that all safety regulations are observed.
Check the pump for the presence of any oil leaks, because there is the
danger that someone may slip on the oil which has leaked from the pump.

be stored, proceed as follows :
When pumping harmful substances, take adequate safety precautions.

and let the pump run for a few minutes.
Then drain the oil and pour in clean oil up to the top edge of the oil-level
glass (see § 5.4-C).
Seal the connection ports. Special preservation or slushing oils are not
necessary.
