  • Page 5: Operating Principle

    Conveying of other media leads to an increased thermal and/or mechanical load on the vacuum pump and is permissible only after a consultation with Busch. The vacuum pump is intended for the placement in a non-hazardous environment.
  • Page 6: Level Switch (Accessory)

    3 | Transport 2.4.4 Level Switch (accessory) The level switch monitors the oil level in the oil separator (OS). The vacuum pump must be stopped when the oil level is too low. 2.4.5 Gas Ballast Valve (option) The gas ballast mixes the process gas with a limited quantity of ambient air to counteract the condensation of vapor inside the vacuum pump.

    Storage | 4 WARNING Motor eye bolt. Risk of severe injury! • Do not lift the vacuum pump using the eye bolt fitted to the motor. Only lift the vac- uum pump as previously shown. • Check the vacuum pump for transport damage. If the vacuum pump is secured to a shipping base: •...
  • Page 8: Connecting Lines / Pipes

    Water Connection (Optional). If the vacuum pump is installed at an altitude greater than 3300 feet above sea level: • Contact your Busch representative, the motor should be derated or the ambient temperature limited. If the vacuum pump is equipped with monitoring devices or sensors: •...
  • Page 9: Suction Connection

    If the vacuum pump is used as part of a vacuum system: • Busch recommends the installation of an isolation valve in order to prevent the oil from flowing back to the vacuum system. • Do not use the anti-suck-back valve as a system check valve.
  • Page 10: Discharge Connection

    The water cooling option can be used to cool pumps operating in high ambient tempera- tures, or it can be used to maintain a pump at elevated temperatures to prevent conden- sation inside the pump in wet applications. • Contact your Busch representative for more details. 10 / 32 0870207738_RA_RC0400-0630C_USA_-_IM_en...
  • Page 11: Filling Oil

    Do not use inappropriate oil. Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! • Only use an oil type which has previously been approved and recommended by Busch. For oil type and oil capacity see Technical Data [► 27] and Oil [► 27]. Check oil level 0870207738_RA_RC0400-0630C_USA_-_IM_en...
  • Page 12: Electrical Connection

    • Make sure that the motor of the vacuum pump will not be affected by electric or elec- tromagnetic disturbance from the mains; if necessary seek advice from Busch. • Ensure the electrical connection is properly grounded. • Electrically connect the motor.

    Commissioning | 6 5.4.1 Wiring Diagram Three-Phase Motor The wiring diagram for the electrical connection is located in the terminal box or on the nameplate of the motor. If the pump is supplied with a motor starter, it is preset at the factory in accordance with the supplied motor.
  • Page 14: Conveying Condensable Vapours

    6.1 Conveying Condensable Vapours Water vapour within the gas flow is tolerated within certain limits. The conveyance of other vapours shall be agreed upon with Busch. If condensable vapours are to be conveyed: Warm the pump up for 30 minutes before exposing it to the process, and allow it to run dry for 30 minutes before turning it off.
  • Page 15: Maintenance

    Failing to properly maintain the machine. Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! • Respect the maintenance intervals or ask your Busch representative for service. • Shut down the vacuum pump and lock against inadvertent start up. • Vent the connected lines to atmospheric pressure.
  • Page 16: Oil Level Inspection

    • Check and/or clean the water cooling sys- tem. • Contact Busch for an inspection. Every 5 years If required, overhaul the machine. * Service interval for synthetic oil, shorten the interval when using mineral oil, contact Busch Service 7.2 Oil Level Inspection...
  • Page 17: Oil And Oil Filter Change

    Do not use inappropriate oil. Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! • Only use an oil type which has previously been approved and recommended by Busch. NOTICE Do not fill oil through the vacuum pump inlet. Risk of damage to the vacuum pump! Starting the vacuum pump with excessive quantities of oil in the cylinder will break the vanes.

  • Page 19: Exhaust Filter Change

    Maintenance | 7 WARNING The vacuum pump is underfilled with oil. Risk of fire! • Insufficient oil quantity in the vacuum pump has the potential, under certain condi- tions, to lead to self-ignition of the remaining oil in the vacuum pump. WARNING Degraded oil build up in oil lines.
  • Page 20: Overhaul

    Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! • It is highly recommended that any dismantling of the vacuum pump beyond what is described in this manual should be done through Busch. WARNING Vacuum pumps contaminated with hazardous material. Risk of poisoning!
  • Page 21: Decommissioning

    • Decontaminate the vacuum pump as well as possible and state the contamination status in a ‘Declaration of Contamination’. Busch will only accept vacuum pumps that come with a complete filled in and legally binding signed ‘Declaration of Contamination’. Decommissioning •...
