Operation 2.3 Electrical Connections The maximum throughput of the pump is equivalent to the pumping speed of the pump (see Section 1.6). Warning Before wiring the motor or altering the Caution wiring, ensure that mains supply for the The cross-section of the intake and exhaust pump is off and that it can not be applied lines should be at least the same size as inadvertently.
Operation Star connection Delta connection Fig. 8 Connection diagram for TRIVAC-B with 50 Hz 3-phase motor Caution After connecting the motor and after every Warning The safety regulations which apply to the time you alter the wiring, check the direction application in each case must be observed.
Operation 2.5 Operation Once all vapours have been pumped off from a process (e.g. during drying), the gas ballast valve can be closed to improve the attainable ultimate pressure. TRIVAC-B pumps can pump condensable gases and vapours, provided that the gas ballast valve (7/5) is open and the pump has attained its operating temperature.
Maintenance 3 Maintenance Drain the oil (see Section 3.2). Add clean oil until the oil-level is at the “min” mark (see Section 3.2) and let the pump operate for some time. Disconnect the electrical connections Warning Then drain the oil and add clean oil until the oil level is at before disassembling the pump.
Maintenance 3.1 Checking the Oil Level During operation of the TRIVAC-B the oil level must always remain between marks (9/2) and (9/3) on the oil- level glass. The amount of oil must be checked and topped up as required. Caution Fill in oil only after the pump has been switched off.
