The machine is designed for indoor installation, in case of outdoor installation, ask your Busch representative in order to take specific precautions. In case Busch delivered the machine without motor and coupling, the following must be observed: • In regards to its explosive atmosphere protection class, the motor and the coup- ling must have at least the same ATEX classification as the machine for the outside area “Outside (o)”.
Product Description | 2 2.4 Accessories NOTE Depending on the ATEX classification of the machine, some of the following accessories may be mandatory, see ATEX Classifications and Associated Accessories [► 8]. 2.4.1 Gas Ballast Valve The gas ballast valve mixes the process gas with a limited quantity of ambient air to counteract the condensation of vapour inside the machine.
2 | Product Description 2.5 Explanation of ATEX Classification The ATEX classification is written on the nameplate of the machine (NP), see below a marking example: Type of protection Explosion group inside the machine Equipment category for explosive dust Temperature class inside the machine (T3=200°C) Equipment category for explosive gases inside the machine Equipment protection level gas Equipment group II (not for mining application)

Installation | 5 Installation 5.1 Installation Conditions WARNING The installation conditions are not respected in an ATEX environment. Risk of severe injury! Risk of explosion! • Take care that the installation conditions are met. NOTICE Use of the machine outside of the permitted installation conditions. Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! •...
Water Connection (Optional) [► 13]. If the machine is installed at an altitude greater than 1000 meters above sea level: • Contact your Busch representative, the motor should be derated or the ambient temperature limited. Make sure that the monitoring devices are correctly connected and integrated into a control system such that operation of the machine will be inhibited if the safety limit val- ues are exceeded, see Electrical Connection of the Monitoring Devices [► 19].
Depending on the specific order, other connection dimensions may apply. If the machine is used as part of a vacuum system: • Busch recommends the installation of an isolation valve in order to prevent the oil from flowing back to the vacuum system.

5 | Installation The thermostatic valve (TV) is used to control the water flow in order to keep a stable machine temperature. The factory default adjustment of the thermostatic valve (TV) is set in position 2 (approx. 75°C oil temperature). The pressure switch (PS) is used to monitor the presence of water at the cooling system of the machine.
Risk of premature failure! Loss of efficiency! • Only use an oil type which has previously been approved and recommended by Busch. For oil type and oil capacity see Technical Data [► 33] and Oil [► 34]. 1x o-ring, part no.: 0486 000 513...
• Busch recommends installing a D-curve circuit breaker. • Make sure that the motor of the machine will not be affected by electric or electro- magnetic disturbance from the mains; if necessary seek advice from Busch. • Connect the protective earth conductor.

6 | Commissioning Commissioning NOTICE The machine can be shipped without oil. Operation without oil will ruin the machine in short time! • Prior to commissioning, the machine must be filled with oil, see Filling Oil [► 15]. CAUTION During operation the surface of the machine may reach temperatures of more than 70°C.
