Setting Up - Imlab IKA VC 10 Manual

NOTICE
Install a separator (e.g. Woulff bottle) infront of the intake moun-
ting to protect against the ingress of liquid.
In the case of induced solvent vapours, a vapour condenser (acces-
sory of pump) installed downstream of the pump helps to conden-
se the vapours and prevents release into the atmosphere.
Liquid in the pump chambers deteriorates the pump characteris-
tics.
Attach the IKA ® VC 10 vacuum controller to a stand (d=16 mm)
close to the pump.
Secure the controller with the stand locking screw (N).
To do so, use a stand with diameter 16 mm, for example, IKA
®
stand VC 10.400, IKA VSS 1 vacuum safety set, the stand on
®
IKA MVP 10 digital vacuum pump or attach the controller to
®
the IKA RV 8 rotary evaporator, or at IKA
reactor.

Observe the general information,
always connect the
(load/vacuum vessel/glass cooler)
at their highest points to the suc-
tion line. This will prevent the risk
of fluid entering into the vacuum
controller or pump.
