Starting and Running the Pump
Before being put into service, in order to reach maximum vacuum,
the pump must be left running for about an hour with the gas ballast
valve open. This will eliminate any humidity from the oil.
WARNING! The pump is designed for operation with neutral or non-corrosive fluids. It is
absolutely forbidden to use potentially explosive or flammable substances.
NOTE
If the pump is started with cold oil, initially more than normal noise will be
heard; this will last for a few minutes only until the oil reaches its working
temperature.
There are no special instructions for normal operation of the pump,
which is delivered to you after completion of a running in cycle in the
factory.
If the pump is sucking in environments with liquids or vapors, it is
important to leave it to run with the gas ballast open so as to avoid
condensation of the vapors and contamination of the lubricating oil
as a result. When there is no danger of the oil being contaminated,
the gas ballast valve should be closed to reduce the pump’s power
absorption.
The gas ballast valve will prove useful in the cold season when, due
to the lower room temperatures, it takes longer for the pump to reach
rated temperature when switched on. Compression of the air forced
in by the gas ballast valve develops heat, which in turn increases
temperature of the oil faster.
