Product description 3 Product description 3.1 Function The rotary vane pumps of the HenaLine are single-stage, oil-sealed rotary positive displacement pumps with air cooling and circulatory lubrication. A non-return valve in the vacuum connection closes the in- take line automatically when the rotary vane pump is switched off and prevents an operating fluid return flow.
The vacuum pump is cooled by heat radiation from its surface, the air flow of the two fan impellers and by the pumped gas. In case of thermally unfavorable ambient conditions, Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends the use of a pump version with oil/water heat exchanger. The oil/water heater is installed at the factory. The oil/water heat exchanger cannot be retrofitted.
► Always transport the vacuum pump horizontally or without operating fluid filling. ► Fill in the operating fluid only at the final installation location. Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends keeping the transport packaging and original protective cov- General information regarding safe transport 1.
4. Lift the vacuum pump out of the transport packaging. 5. Always place the vacuum pump on an adequately sized, level surface. 4.2 Storing the vacuum pump Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends storing the products in their original transport packaging. Procedure 1. Seal the vacuum and exhaust connection.
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 rotary vane pumps.
8. Use a separator or filter from the Pfeiffer Vacuum line of accessories if necessary. As an alternative, screwing flanges DN 63/100 ISO-K / G 2" are available from Pfeiffer Vacuum Acces- sories. 5.4 Filling the operating fluid NOTICE Risk of damage due to the use of non-approved operating fluid Product-specific performance data are not achieved.
► Route the mains connection in accordance with locally applicable provisions. ► Always provide a suitable mains fuse to protect the motor and supply cable in the event of a fault. – Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends the circuit breaker type "K" with slow tripping characteristic. NOTICE Property damage from high starting torque The specific load behavior of the vacuum pump requires direct on-line starting at full motor power.
Installation Connect the three phase motor with delta connection ► Connect the three phase motor according to the connection diagram.

Installation 5.6.6 Connecting the PTC thermistor tripping unit Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends connecting motors with PTC in the stator winding to a PTC resistor trip- ping device for protection against overload. Tripping units store the shut-down. F1 - F3 AC 220 ... 240 V T1...T3...
Operation 6 Operation 6.1 Putting the vacuum pump into operation WARNING Danger of poisoning due to toxic process media escaping from the exhaust pipe During operation with no exhaust line, the vacuum pump allows exhaust gases and vapors to escape freely into the air. There is a risk of injury and fatality due to poisoning in processes with toxic process media.
Operation CAUTION Danger of burns on hot surfaces Depending on the operating and ambient conditions, the surface temperature of the vacuum pump can increase to above 70 °C. ► Provide suitable touch protection. NOTICE Risk of damage to the drive from increased motor current consumption At an intake pressure of approximately 300 hPa and under unfavorable operating conditions (such as for example exhaust side counterpressure), the power input exceeds the rated current.

Operation Procedure 1. Unscrew the filler screw. 2. With the vacuum pump at operating temperature, refill with operating fluid up to the top marking before the minimum fill level is reached. 3. Screw in the filler screw again. – Be careful with the O-ring. 6.5 Switching off the vacuum pump NOTICE Contamination from operating fluid backflow...
► Dismantle the vacuum pump for inspection, away from the system if necessary. NOTICE Danger of property damage from improper maintenance Unprofessional work on the vacuum pump will lead to damage for which Pfeiffer Vacuum accepts no liability. ► We recommend taking advantage of our service training offering.
Maintenance We recommend Pfeiffer Vacuum Service for carrying out maintenance work of Maintenance Level 2 and Maintenance Level 3 (revision). If the required intervals listed below are exceeded, or if mainte- nance work is carried out improperly, no warranty or liability claims are accepted on the part of Pfeiffer Vacuum.
Should process conditions change, you can convert to a different operating fluid type. Safety data sheets You can obtain the safety data sheets for operating fluids from Pfeiffer Vacuum on request, or from the Pfeiffer Vacuum Download Center.
► Wear protective equipment. ► Use a suitable collection vessel. Cleaning by changing the operating fluid Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends, in cases of heavy contamination with process residues, cleaning the inside of the vacuum pump with several operating fluid changes. Prerequisites ●...

Maintenance 7.3.4 Changing the operating fluid filter The operating fluid filter must be changed: ● in event of saturation ─ You can recognize a saturated operating fluid filter by the fact that the filter housing is cool on the outside while the rotary vane pump is running at operating temperature. ●...
Maintenance Change the exhaust filter annually Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends replacing the exhaust filter in the operating fluid separator annually, depending on the work process and the contamination incurred during the proc- ess. Signs for saturation of the exhaust filter: ● higher current consumption of the motor ●...
Maintenance 6. Pull the filter unit completely out of the operating fluid separator. 7. Dismantle the clamping plate. 8. Replace the exhaust filters. 7.4.2 Mounting the exhaust filters Prerequisites ● Vacuum pump switched off ● Vacuum pump vented to atmospheric pressure ●...
Maintenance 6. Fit the separator cover plate with new flat seal. 7. Tighten the screws on the separator cover plate evenly. – Tightening torque: 21 Nm. During operation, the new exhaust filter becomes saturated with oil. It is therefore normal for the operat- ing fluid fill level to drop slightly after the filters were changed.
Maintenance As the soiling increases, the throughput of the gas ballast filter decreases. The risk of condensation and corrosion in the vacuum pump increases. Required consumables ● Compressed air Fig. 21: Cleaning the gas ballast filter 1 Gas ballast filter Gas ballast line 2 Gas ballast valve Removing and cleaning the gas ballast filter...
9. Pack the vacuum pump together with a drying agent in a plastic bag, and seal the vacuum pump airtight if it is to be stored in rooms with damp or aggressive atmospheres. 10. For longer storage periods (> 2 years), Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends changing the operating fluid again prior to recommissioning.
► Wear personal protective equipment if necessary. NOTICE Danger of property damage from improper maintenance Unprofessional work on the vacuum pump will lead to damage for which Pfeiffer Vacuum accepts no liability. ► We recommend taking advantage of our service training offering.
