Pump performance will depend on the kind of accessories used and the
quality of the mechanical connections such as the pump fittings.
A3-P Range pumps are used in corrosive environments. Their reliability
will depend on proper installation and maintenance. When assembling the
vacuum circuit, we recommend installing maintenance accessories such as
isolation valve on the inlet, exhaust and purge lines.
For safety reasons, the materials and sealing properties of the accessories
used on the inlet and exhaust lines must be compatible with the gases being
used.
The pump must operate in the horizontal position. It may not be used
standing on its end.
Risk of tilting: compliance with the EEC safety rules is guaranteed (normal
range ±10°). However, precautions should be taken against the risk of
tilting during product handling, installation and operation. See
A 40

location of the center of gravity.
