Safety guideline for Turbomolecular Pumps

Turbomolecular pumps as described in the following operating manual contain a
large amount of kinetic energy due to the high Rotation Speed in combination with
the specific mass of their rotors.
In case of malfunctioning of a mechanical part of the pump the rotational energy
may be released to whatever the pump is fixed to.
To avoid damage to equipment and to prevent injuries to operating
WARNING
personnel the installation instructions as given in this manual should be
