Inspection of the ventilating valve As a matter of principle, a ventilating valve must be installed as safety element on the VacuStar L400's suction side. When the set vacuum is reached, the ventilating valve opens and admits atmospheric auxiliary air into the system. The operational capability must be checked weekly with the aid of a vacuum meter at the VacuStar L400's inlet. - Page 22 The connection is located opposite of the pressure and suction connection. If your system's cell ventilation is connected, you may operate the VacuStar L400 up to a vacuum of 100 mbar. A suction filter is located in the cell ventilation line. The filter must be cleaned weekly and replaced in case of visible damage.
