Use a material that has a tensile strength of 600N/mm or more. When securing the base, use stainless steel securing bolts with a tensile strength class of 70 or more. Note: When using any securing method other than that specified in this manual, contact Edwards. July 08 Issue 1-a...
STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump When securing the inlet port with bolts Refer to Table 2 for maximum predicted torque in any pump abnormality and for the recommended type of securing bolt for inlet port flange. Secure the inlet port flange with the correct size bolts as specified in the Inlet Port Flange Standard. Secure the base with either the 8 screws for legs or the 8 attached legs.
STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump When securing the inlet port flange with claw clamps Refer to Table 2 for rotational torque. When securing the inlet port flange with only the claw clamp, the vacuum equipment cannot withstand the maximum rotational torque generated by the worst-case failure. To make the vacuum equipment withstand abnormal torque, secure the base with either the 8 screws for legs or the 8 attached legs.
STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump When installing the damper in the inlet port flange CAUTION Use a damper only at the vertically upright position. CAUTION DO NOT remove the bolts and nuts attached to reinforce the damper. Refer to Table 2 for rotational torque. When using a damper, secure the base with either the 8 screws for legs or the 8 attached legs.
STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump TEMPERATURE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (TMS) WARNING The STP pump operates at high temperatures while the Temperature Management System (TMS) unit is in operation. NEVER touch the STP pump and its peripheral equipment while TMS unit are in operation. Operators can burn hands. The Temperature Management System (TMS) maintains the temperature of the turbomolecular pump by monitoring the temperature with temperature sensor in the base of the turbomolecular pump, and performing the TMS valve and TMS heater ON/OFF control.

STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump Installation of the TMS unit CAUTION DO NOT install the TMS unit in places with high temperature, humidity, noise, vibration, or other unstable environment. CAUTION DO NOT apply force to the TMS unit and cables during installation and DO NOT bend the cables excessively.
STP-A1603 Series Turbomolecular Pump Replacing the fuses in the TMS connection cable Fuses for the TMS valve and the TMS heater of STP-A1603CV series are set inside the TMS connection cable. Contact the Service office, when replacement is required. Condition for the TMS unit Item Condition Ambient temperature range...
