3 Product description 3.1 Function The diaphragm pump of the MVP 030-3 DC series is a dry compressing vacuum pump with 3 pumping stages. The vacuum pump is a positive displacement pump with a periodic change in suction chamber size, produced by the movement of the diaphragm. The gas flow causes the valves to open and close automatically.
Transportation and Storage 4 Transportation and Storage 4.1 Transporting the vacuum pump WARNING Danger of serious injury due to falling objects Due to falling objects there is a risk of injuries to limbs through to broken bones. ► Take particular care and pay special attention when transporting products manually. ►...
Property damage from contaminated gases Pumping down gases that contain impurities (condensate, particles) damages the vacuum pump. ► Use suitable filters or separators from the Pfeiffer Vacuum range of accessories, to protect the vacuum pump. Installation and operation of accessories Pfeiffer Vacuum offers a series of special, compatible accessories for its diaphragm pumps.
► Observe the permissible pressures and pressure differentials for the product. ► Check the function of the exhaust line on a regular basis. Condensate separator Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends installing a condensate separator, with condensate drain at the lowest point of the exhaust line. Procedure 1.

The basic parameter set is set in the electronic drive unit ex-factory. For controlling con- nected external components (e.g. vacuum measuring instruments), additional parameters (extended parameter set) are available in the corresponding Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control panels. ● Refer to the corresponding operating instructions of the respective components.
Important settings and function-related variables are factory-programmed into the vacuum pump elec- tronic drive unit as parameters. Each parameter has a three-digit number and a description. Parameter- driven operation and control is supported via Pfeiffer Vacuum displays and control units, or externally via RS-485 using Pfeiffer Vacuum protocol.
► Select the interface according to the table. 8.4 Operating modes The following operating modes are possible: ● Operation without control unit ● Operation via an external control unit ● Operation via RS-485 and Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control unit or PC 32/56...
Operation The connection of a Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control panel permits the controlling of the vacuum pump via the parameters fixed in the electronic drive unit. Automatic start After bypassing the contacts at pins 2, 7, 5 on the connecting plug or when using a con- necting cable with respective bridges and applying the supply voltage, the vacuum pump starts up immediately.
Operation 8.4.3 Normal operation The vacuum pump starts in boost mode for max. 5 minutes with the maximum speed. The current is monitored at the same time. If the current is below a threshold value, the speed is controlled down to nominal rotation speed.
Operation 8.6 Operation monitoring 8.6.1 Operating mode display via LED The LED on the electronic drive unit indicates the basic operating conditions. A differentiated malfunc- tion and warning display is possible only for operation with DCU or HPU. Display Activity Meaning None ●...
► Do not use any alcohol or other cleaning agents to clean the diaphragms and valves.

Maintenance 9.5 Checking the ultimate pressure The leakage rate of the vacuum pump ensures that the specified ultimate pressure is reached and pre- vents the formation of potentially explosive mixtures in the interior of the vacuum pump After the diaphragm or valve is replaced, the vacuum pump reaches the specified ultimate pressure val- ue only after a run-in period of several hours.
Decommissioning 10 Decommissioning Before shutting down the vacuum pump, observe the following instructions to adequately protect the in- terior of the vacuum pump (suction chamber) from corrosion: Procedure for temporary vacuum pump shutdowns 1. Allow the vacuum pump to run on for 5 to 10 minutes with the vacuum connection open to allow any condensate that may be present to be removed from the vacuum pump.
– Fluoroelastomers (FKM) – Potentially contaminated components that come into contact with media 11.2 Dispose of diaphragm pumps Pfeiffer Vacuum diaphragm pumps contain materials that you must recycle. 1. Disconnect the electronic drive unit. 2. Dismantle the motor. 3. Decontaminate the components that come into contact with process gases.
