Inspections during operation

 

The following inspections have to be carried out during operation: 

 

Prior to every start-up and during operation, the oil level and the 

coolant level must be checked and topped up if necessary. 

 

Open shut-off devices. Always turn the four-way cock until it hits 

the stop. Intermediate positions are not permitted 

 

Switch on drive and check whether pressure or vacuum are 

created. 

 

Pay attention to abnormal noises and leaks during operation. If 

necessary, switch off VacuStar W. 

 

Drain condensate at the condensate and safety traps. Vessel 

may not be in a state of vacuum when condensate is drained. 

 

Checking the operating data: 

 

The speed must be between 1000…1,500 min

-1

 

 

The cooling water outlet temperature (return flow to radiator) 

may be max. 60 °C. 

 

Check positive working pressure at the pressure gauge 

(permissible pressure refer to rating plate). 

 

Check the operating vacuum at the vacuum meter (permissible 

vacuum refer to rating plate). 

 

The compression end temperature at 20 °C suction temperature 

may not exceed the following values: 

 

140 °C at 400 mbar operating vacuum 

 

120 °C at 0.5 mbar excess pressure 

 

 

If potentially explosive gases and gas mixtures are conveyed, the 

following points must be observed: 

 

Prior to every VacuStar W start and during operation: 

- Check coolant 

- Check oil level 

- Check for leaks 

 

Listen for abnormal noise during the suction process. Switch off 

the VacuStar W if necessary. 

 

Check the VacuStar W at regular intervals (daily) for signs of 

overheating and exceptional deformations. If necessary, switch 

off the VacuStar W or do not put it into operation. 

 

Regularly examine the VacuStar W for leaks such as leaking oil 

or water or escaping gas. If necessary, switch off VacuStar W 

or do not put into operation. 

 

If the VacuStar W is extremely hot: Switch off VacuStar W and 

only switch on again after approximately half an hour, to 

prevent the rotor from starting.
