7. Maintenance/Replacement
No liability for personal injury nor material
damage will be accepted for damages and
operational interruptions which have been
caused by improper maintenance; in addition,
all guarantees become invalid.
The bearing should be changed every three years (request
Pfeiffer Vacuum Service to change).
Where extreme operating conditions or unclean processes
are involved, the replacement interval should be checked
with your Pfeiffer Vacuum Service Center.
You can replace the lubricant reservoir and the Electronic

Please contact your local Pfeiffer Vacuum Service for all
other maintenance and service work.
Ensure no mechanical forces act on the
Electronic Drive Unit TC 600.
