    Operation 3.6 Power failure - Cable break If there is a power failure or if the mains plug is accident- ally disconnected, the TURBOTRONIK automatically switches over to generator operation to drive the TURBOVAC. In this way the active magnetic bearing control circuits will be kept in operation as the pump runs down, until the rotor seats on the touch-down bearings once it has reached a low speed.
