NOTE
Do not block or restrict the flow of gas from the pump discharge. Back
pressure within the pump could cause severe damage.
6.1.1 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
WARNING
Disconnect pump from source electrical power prior to making repairs or
adjustments of any electric component of the unit.
If the pump is not wired when received, wire the motor as per the schematic/label on motor. Also wire any
optional controls prior to start-up. Connect the motor and all applicable electrical accessories to a motor
controller equipped with both overcurrent running protection and short circuit protection.
When wiring is complete turn the pump by hand to ensure that the pump is free to turn and then momentarily
jog the motor to check that the pump rotation direction is clockwise when facing the drive end. If the pump
rotates in the wrong direction reverse any two of the three motor leads. If a flow switch is provided it should
be wired into the motor circuit with a relay so as to stop the motor in the event that the cooling water flow
is interrupted.
Optional custom control panels and electrical accessory components, along with schematic wiring diagrams
and wiring instructions are available separately from Tuthill Vacuum & Blower Systems.
6.2 PRE-START CHECKS
Before starting the pump check the following items:
1. The installation has been made in accordance with the installation section of this manual.
2.
The pump has been filled with oil and the cylinder has been filled with water, in accordance with the
installation section of this manual.
3. If the pump has been idle for a month or more – Turn the pump by hand two or more revolutions to
distribute oil internally through the pump.
4. The temperature of the pump oil is 60°F (16°C) or above. Optional pump heaters are available for
installation in the cylinder water jacket.
5.
Cooling water is available. Do not start the cooling water flow until the pump has operated a few
minutes.
6. Drive belts are correctly tensioned. See
V-Belt Drive
Section.
7. Direction of rotation is correct.
WARNING
Correct rotation is clockwise when viewed from the drive end
(Counterclockwise when viewed from the motor fan). Operating the pump
with the incorrect rotation will cause
FAILURE
.
WARNING
Physical harm may occur if human body parts are in contact or exposed to
the process vacuum. Assure that all connections are protected from human
contact.
CAUTION
Do not touch hot surfaces. Discharge gas based on operating conditions
can be elevated.
