Ventilation
To guarantee the characteristics and performances of the pump within the boundaries of the operating
conditions:
● Do not obstruct the air vents.
● Keep the pump away from fixed walls, at a minimum using the value indicated on the diagram be-
low.
5.2 Connecting to the pumping line
The user and/or product integrator is ultimately responsible for the equipment and must apply the spe-
cific safety instructions, in accordance with local regulations.
WARNING
Risk of crushing or cutting in case of contact with moving parts
The pump inlet flange is large enough for body parts (fingers or hands) to the inserted into it, present-
ing a risk of crushing due to contact with moving parts. The inlet and exhaust ports should be sealed
with blanking plates before connection.
► Wait for the pumping line to be connected before removing the blanking plates.
►
Wait for the pump to be connected before powering on.
General instructions for installing the pump in the pumping line in accordance with industry
best practices
The inlet and exhaust connections must not put undue strain on the pumping line that could cause leak-
age.
1. Only use accessories on the inlet and exhaust lines with materials and sealing properties that are
compatible with the gases being pumped. Refer to the connection accessories catalog available at
the
website.
2. When assembling the pumping line, include accessories for isolating the pump from the pumping
line and making maintenance easier to carry out (pump inlet and exhaust isolation valves, purge
valves, etc.).
3. The O-rings located under the blanking plates are not compatible with all applications.
Product
users or integrators are responsible for installing O-rings that are compatible with their ap-
plications
