Description

Figure 1-2. The Rotor Chamber

VACUUM SYSTEM

The vacuum system is automatically activated when 

 

and 

_78%68a

 are pressed, or it may be turned on directly by pressing 

the 

_:%'991a

 key. Three vacuum LEDs, labeled 750, 200, and <20, 

are located in the middle of the upper display to indicate the level of 
chamber pressure in microns.

At the end of a run, the chamber vacuum must be vented (by pressing 

_:%'991a

) before the door can be opened. After the door is opened, 

the chamber is brought to approximate room temperature to prevent 
condensation from collecting in the chamber. To help keep the 
chamber dry and clean, the door should be kept closed whenever 
possible.

A purge system removes significant amounts of moisture from the 
vacuum pump and chamber. If it takes a long time to pull a vacuum, 
however, it is likely caused by excess moisture in the system. Refer 
to Section 4 for information on correcting this condition.
