ISO flange connections
For the connection of flanges in ISO-KF or ISO-K design, twisting may occur in the event of
sudden blockage of the rotor, despite correct installation.
● Leak-tightness of the flange connection, however, is not jeopardized in this regard.
Connection of claw and tapped hole
1. Only use the approved mounting kits from Pfeiffer Vacuum for the connection.
2. Connect the flange according to the diagram using the components in the mounting kit.
3. Utilize all prescribed components for the turbopump.
