Cell ventilation
The cell ventilation line is fed via the cell ventilation valve from
the atmosphere. Installing a sound absorber is necessary to
reduce the flow noise. An air filter prevents the penetration of
dirt.

Reservoir
There must always be a water supply available in the VacuStar WR.
This is required for generating the liquid ring during the start and to
ensure the lubrication of the slide ring seal.
Variant I (see page 24, chapter 6.2): The liquid level is above the line
connection of the VacuStar WR.
At minimum water content in the reservoir and open process
water line, the water level must not be below the connection of
the VacuStar WR lines.
A water stop valve must be installed in the process water inlet
to avoid overfilling the VacuStar WR at standstill.
ATTENTION!
The slide ring seal will be damaged when the
machine runs dry, without liquid. Before it is started,
the liquid ring pump must always be filled
approximately half with liquid.
Variant II: The liquid level is below the line connection of the
VacuStar WR.
Depending on the line routing, installing a water circulation
pump in the process water line may be necessary to support
the circulation. Please contact CVS for the rating of the pump.
CAUTION!
No gross iron-containing particles (> 0.2 mm) must
be carried into the VacuStar WR via the intake or the
industrial water.
