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.

Installation Establishing a connection for the trimmer 1. Make sure that no control signal is connected at the terminals of terminal block ST1B. 2. Connect the supply voltage at the corresponding terminals of terminal block ST1A. 5.4.2 Establishing a connection for interval operation Required cables (accessories) ●...
When pumping down dry gases, no special precautions are required. Pfeiffer Vacuum supplies the diaphragm pump ex factory for operation without control signal and with the trimmer turned to the right stop. The diaphragm pump starts directly and rotates at max. rotation speed.
Operation 6.3 Adjusting rotation speed When operating the vacuum pump, there are 3 different control options, each of which can lead to a smooth circular runout of the vacuum pump at motor rotation speed > 400 rpm. The motor rotation speed of the vacuum pump increases linearly in each case up to max. rotation speed. The higher the motor rotation speed, the higher the pumping speed.
Operation Required tool ● Allen key, WAF 5 Fig. 6: Mounting the flushing gas nozzle 1 Locking screw, G 1/8" Seal 2 Flushing gas nozzle (0.3 mm) Mounting the flushing gas nozzle Using the optional flushing gas nozzle improves the discharge of condensate, and the pump achieves the specified final vacuum more quickly.
► Do not use any alcohol or other cleaning agents to clean the diaphragms and valves. 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.
We recommend that Pfeiffer Vacuum Service carry out maintenance work at level 2. If the specified intervals are exceeded, or if maintenance work is carried out improperly, no war- ranty or liability claims are accepted on the part of Pfeiffer Vacuum. This also applies wher- ever parts other than original spare parts are used.
Maintenance 3. Place the diaphragm (blue side up) and the supporting washer on the square of the clamping washer connecting screw. – Pay attention to the seating of the diaphragm in the square of the connecting screw. 4. Place the original spacer disks on the respective connection rod. 5.

Maintenance Procedure 1. Measure the final pressure of the vacuum pump. – after work on the system, e.g., maintenance – before the vacuum pump is reinserted 2. Compare the measured final pressure with the test values and the specifications in the technical data.
Decommissioning 8 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 9.2 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.
► 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.
