1.4. Vacuum Operation
Contact the factory for information regarding operation in a vacuum environment.
Preparation and considerations for operation in a vacuum environment:
Lubrication with vacuum-compatible lubricants
l
Use of materials, fasteners, and coatings with vacuum outgas performance compatible with the level of
l
vacuum specified
For high vacuum stages, elimination of situations that may allow gases to become temporarily trapped
l
during pump down
Extensive cleaning prior to assembly in a clean environment and packaging in a special polyethylene
l
bag
Use of components able to withstand elevated temperatures (non-operating) for bake-out performances
l
Reduced air pressure eliminates significant convective heat transfer. This, coupled with the viscous
vacuum-compatible lubricants, could result in excessive motor operating temperatures. Because of this,
consider all continuous torque ratings to be
atmospheric environment. Reduce motor usage accordingly.
1.5. Export Restrictions
