3.1.2 Outer Forces on Evacuated Pumps
Due to the large flange area of the RUVAC WH pumps significant forces
affect the pipework that is connected to the pump, shifting it if not properly
affixed.
In the vertical pumping direction this is typically not a problem if the pump’s
feet are properly affixed to a stable surface.
In the horizontal pumping direction the resulting force would overload the
rubber elements of the pump feet if not compensated by the pipework thus
displacing the pump. This would highly stress the piping.
In order to prevent any shifting, our specially manufactured pump feet must
be used, see Section 1.5 Accessories.
Always make sure that the pump is connected using compensation elements
so that the piping is not stressed too much.
