The pump must only be opened by such persons who have been authori- sed by Oerlikon Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum Vacuum to do so. The rotor is precision balanced; any change whatsoever, such as loose- ning or bending any rotor component, will make re-balancing necessary.
When installing CF flanges, use only the bolts specified (tightening torque is 15 Nm for DN 40 CF, 30 Nm for DN 63 CF and larger). You will find the order numbers for the (clamping) bolts in the Oerlikon Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum Catalog.
When pumping reactive media, connect a purge gas and airing valve. Please contact Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum for assistance in making the decisi- on as to which media can be pumped with or without purge gas. In processes which require purge gas the pump will have to be aired, when it is switched off, through the purge gas valve.
Moreover we recommend to have the rotor assy. exchanged , depending on the thermal stress on the rotor, after 45,000 to 100,000 operating hours. This can only be done by Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum Service. For this ask for a quotation.
The pump will have to be disassembled if there is more extensive contamina- tion. The Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum Customer Service Department will have to be consulted here in all cases.
Protect in particular the flan- ges, the coolant connection nipples and the cable grommets. If you return a pump to Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum, be absolutely sure to observe the instructions given in Section 5.2.
