Instruction Manual VPD-25 IM 12 FEB 2018 1.0 INTRODUCTION The Novatec VPD vacuum pump is designed to pneumatically convey plastic pellets or powders in a vacuum conveying system. It does this by creating a vacuum to “pull” air through the piping system.
When the unit is unpacked, make a visual inspection looking for missing parts or damage that may have occurred during shipment. Report any missing parts to Novatec immediately. All electrical and mechanical connections should be checked for tightness, as vibration during transit may cause them to loosen.

Connect the vacuum lines as shown on the installation drawings. Connect the compressed air (80-120 psig) to air actuated valves as required.
