Before connecting the item with your local power supply make sure that:
-
the item has been designed for your local power supply network
(refer to data plate on the item)

6.1. Installation in rotary evaporator system:
¾
Avoid obstruction losses by using short vacuum lines of high cross section.
¾
Avoid transfer of mechanical loads by stiff lines; use elastic hoses or shock attenuators instead.
Caution: elastic elements may contract during evacuation.
¾
Avoid condensate reflux from the pump's exhaust end; exhaust pipes need to be routed with
adequate slope.
6.2. Prior to first operation:
¾
Max. ambient temperature: 40 °C.
¾
Installing in whatever sort of housing or while working at high ambient temperatures make sure
to have adequate ventilation. Maintain a safety offset of 20 cm between fans and adjacent
parts.
¾
Gas ballast valve of the pump being open, electric power failure may cause aeration. If such
situation might be hazardous, take adequate action.
¾
Avoid whatever sort of leakage in your installation; check system for leaks after installation.
6.3. Operation:
The pump may be started at 1 bar max. differential pressure between in- and outlet port to avoid
damage to the motor.
¾
Refer to max. admissible pressure at outlet port and max. admissible pressure difference
between in- and outlet port of the pump (refer to "Specifications" section).
High compression ratio of the pumps may cause high pressure at output end; never close
the output end of the pump !
The pump is going to reach specified suction and output pressure values, as well as vapor
compatibility at normal operating temperature (after abt. 15 minutes).
¾
Avoid condensation in the pump, hard fluid pulses and dust; continuous feeding of fluids or
dust may damage diaphragm and valves.
¾
Run pump with gas ballast to minimize condensation of pumped substances in the pump
(steam, solvents, .....).
A thermal winding protector will disconnect motor power supply in case of overtemperature.
¾
Caution: accepts manual reset only. Turn pump OFF and disconnect power plug. Allow about 5
minutes for cooling before restart.
