3.4. Connecting The Exhaust Side

Pressure can rise to dangerous levels in

exhaust lines.

Lay exhaust lines without built-in shutoff

devices. If a shut-off device is installed for

internal operating reasons or if there is a risk of

excess pressure developing in the lines, official accident

prevention regulations must be complied with.

The exhaust line diameter should not be less than 63 DN.

The line from the pump must be laid with a downward

gradient so that condensate is prevented from flowing back

into the pump. Otherwise a trap must be installed.

Auspuffleitung nicht kleiner als DN 100 von der Pumpe aus

fallend verlegen, damit kein Kondensat in die Pumpe

zurückläuft. Andernfalls Abscheider einbauen.

Der Auspuffdruck darf 1,5 bar nicht überschreiten.

Expelled gases and vapours can represent a

hazard to health and/or the environment.

For this reason the relevant regulations must

always be complied with when working with

toxic substances. Only officially approved filters

may be used for the separation of such substances. This also

applies when handling toxic or chemically unstable gases

and to gases susceptible to polymerisation or to the formation

of peroxide (see 9. Accessories).

WARNING

CAUTION

3. Installation

3.1. Preparations For Installation

Do not carry out any unauthorised conversions

or modifications on the pump.

Fill up with operating fluid before operating the

first time (included in a separate pack in the

delivery consignment). When transporting use

only the eyebolts provided for the purpose.

3.2. Pump Assembly And Location

➡Where stationary installation is involved, anchor the pump

on site.

➡Sight glass 44 on the front side must be visible and gas

ballast valve readily accessible.

When filled with operating fluid, do not tilt the

pump otherwise operating fluid could escape

via the exhaust opening.

➡When installing the pump in a closed housing, ensure

there is sufficient air circulation.

CAUTION

WARNING

3.3. Connecting The Vacuum Side

➡Keep the connection between the vacuum chamber and

pump as short as possible.

➡Remove all scaling and loose particles from welded lines

prior to assembly.

– To protect the pump, separators, filters and cooling traps

etc.(see Section 9. Accessories) can be fitted upstream of

the pump. However, the conductance value of the

accessory causes a reduction in volume flow rate.

Where rotary vane vacuum pumps are

anchored, no forces from the piping system

should be allowed to act on the pump.

Suspend, decouple or support all piping

concerned with the pump.

CAUTION

Maximum angle of inclination to each side 10Þ

Maximum erection height 2000 m N.N.

Ambient temperature maximum 40 °C and minimum 12 °C

Maximum relative humidity 85%

3.5. Connecting To The Mains Power Supply

Power connections must comply with local

regulations. Voltage and frequency information

given on the rating plate must correspond to

the mains voltage and frequency values.

When the electrical connections have been

completed, carry out the earthed conductor

test.

The pump must be disconnected from the power before

opening the terminal box.

When switching on for the first time, check the direction of

rotation:

Checking The Direction Of Rotation

Check the direction of rotation of the pump

before filling up with operating medium.

➡Remove blank flange on the exhaust flange,

– do not take off sieve strainer from vacuum flange 1 and

exhaust flange 2.

➡Switch on pump for a short time (max. 3 seconds).

Motor/motor fan must turn clockwise (see arrow P on

motor fan cover).

➡If direction of rotation is incorrect: Interchange two

phases on the connecting cable.

CAUTION

WARNING

Checking The Direction Of Rotation

Three phase motors with PTC

Pumps fitted with these motors are used primarily in systems

or in closed rooms. The motors of these pumps are fitted with

three PTCs which are built into the stator windings. The

connection of a tripping unit will protect the pump against

overloading (see connection example).

Tripping unit:

PTC tripping unit with two switchover contacts at the output

manufactured by Ziehl, type MSR 220 F (see Section 9,

„Accessories“), AEG type TMA 4R or Siemens type 3 UN8 004.

Voltage see rating plate

The Three Phase Current Motor Circuit

The three phase motor winding consists of three identical

coils.

Delta Connection

The three coils are connected in series with the connection

point connected to the mains. The voltage of each coil is the

same as the mains voltage whereas the mains current is the

cube root of the coil current. Delta connections are denoted

by the symbol ∆∆.

The voltage between the mains supply lines is called mains

voltage. The mains current is the current which flows in the

supply lines.

Star Connection

The ends of the three coils are connected at the star center.

The terminal voltage is the cube root of the coil voltage; the

mains and the coil current are the same. Star connections are

denoted by the symbol Y.

A star connection three phase motor for 400 V mains voltage

has a coil voltage of 230 V.

CAUTION

Oiler 136 should always be filled to the half way

mark, maximum, (when the pump is cold); top

up as necessary. When the pump becomes

warm, the lubricant expands and can spill over

if the oiler is too full.

CAUTION

3.6. Special Models

Helium Tight Models

– Helium tight models are distinguished by their high level

tightness to the atmosphere.

– Helium tight models are operated, as standard, with opera-

ting medium P3.

– The rotor shaft is sealed with an additional radial shaft

seal. The cavity between the radial shaft seals 133 is filled

with operating medium and is supplied by the oiler 136.

– If the gas ballast valve 45 is not available, the opening

should be closed with the locking screw 169 or a special

gas ballast valve with dosing device and hose connection

for flushing gas is available (on request).

Corrosive Gas Models

– Corrosive gas models are manufactured with special

materials.

– The rotor shaft of both versions is sealed with an

additional radial shaft seal. The cavity between the radial

shaft seals 118 and 133 is filled with operating medium and

is supplied by the oiler 136.

– If the gas ballast valve 45 is not available, the opening

should be closed with the locking screw 169 or a special

gas ballast valve with dosing device and hose connection

for flushing gas is available (on request).

– Corrosive gas models are operated, as standard, with

synthetic operating medium F5.

4.1. Filling Up And Checking The Operating

Fluid

Standard version pumps are tested with opera-

ting fluid P3. Guarantees relating to attainment

of final pressures and trouble free functioning

apply only providing this operating fluid is used.

The delivery consignment contains sufficient operating fluid

for one filling (valid only for P3).

Pumps for special applications (e.g. for pumping corrosive

gases) can be operated with special operating fluids such as

F5 and other Pfeiffer Vacuum operating fluids. The use of

such operating fluids requires prior authorisation from the

manufacturer.

P3 must be disposed of in accordance with local waste dispo-

sal regulations.

➡Remove operating fluid filler screw 42.

➡Fill up with operating fluid included in the consignment

(only for P3); refer to rating plate for correct quantity.

➡Replace operating fluid filler screw 42; be careful with the

O-ring.

CAUTION

➡Check operating fluid level only when the pump is warm

and running and vacuum connection 1 and gas ballast

valve are closed.

➡The level of operating fluid must always be between the

top and the middle of the sight glass 44.

➡Topping up operating fluid is possible when the pump is

running and in final vacuum operations.

➡In non-stop operations check operating fluid daily,

otherwise whenever the pump is switched on.

4.1.2. Operating Fluid F5

Only the synthetic operating fluid F5 may be used for corrosi-

ve gas model pumps. The use of other operating fluid must be

cleared by the manufacturer.

When working with synthetic operating media,

the manufacturer’s directions must be

observed.

If ‘’F5’’ is heated above 250°C, toxis vapours

which can harm the airways are given off.

Do not allow ‘’F5’’ to come into contact with tobacco products

(danger of poisoning when ignited). The precautions

necessary in the handling of chemicals must be observed.

Operating fluids containing toxic or aggressive

substances require special treatment. The

instructions for handling such media must be

observed.

Never fill into pumps which contain mineral oil

residues.

If there is a noticeable loss of operating fluid,

the radial shaft seals should be checked.

If operating fluid is leaking out underneath the

casing 15 from the opening between the

support stand 28 and motor 3, the radial shaft

seal must be replaced. Please contact your local Pfeiffer-

Service (see Section 7.).
