7) Stopping the vacuum pump
Keep pressing the vacuum pump switch for three
seconds or more.
The “Vacuum pump” lamp goes OFF and the
vacuum pump stops. At the same time, the safety
valve (leak valve) is activated to return the trap bath
inside to the normal pressure.
※
Before stop of the vacuum pump, be sure to remove
all of sample containers.
※
If the trap bath does not return to the normal
pressure or is extremely slow to return, it is likely
that the leak filter is clogged.
Since this may cause backflow of oil or failure of
the vacuum pump, replace the filter while referring
to 7-1.2, Replacing the leak filter.
※
For total stop of control, keep pressing the Run/Stop
key for three seconds or more. All control comes to
stop.
※
Defrosting can be made directly without stopping
the operation. Proceed to the next section.

5) Freeze drying
After installation of the sample container, the
degree of vacuum rises gradually, with frosting
occurs on the inner wall (cooling section) in the trap.
White frosting on the surface of sample container
indicates the satisfactory drying process
※
If frost that looks like granulated sugar adheres in
the trap bath in the course of freeze drying, vacuum
is likely. Check the connection between the sample
container and adapter
6) End of drying
As drying proceeds, frost on the sample container
surface is thawed.
After thorough drying, turn the vacuum cock in
such a manner that
