4.3.2 Earthing the device ● The ground terminal is obligatory for DCUs with integrated power supply pack. ● Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends connecting a suitable grounding cable to the DCU 002 to discharge applicative interferences. ● Alternatively, the DCU 002 is grounded following installation in a rack.
Connecting the DCU 002 The DCU 002 receives the supply voltage via the electronic drive unit interface. The RS485 serial inter- face of the DCU is used exclusively to control the electronic drive unit of a vacuum pump. The interface protocol us described in the operating manual of the respective electronic drive unit.
4. Secure the connection with the mounting bracket. 5. Connect the mains cable to the mains power supply on the customer-side. 4.4 Connecting measuring tubes The connecting socket with designation "X3" is used to connect a Pfeiffer Vacuum transmitter. Measuring tubes Display on the DCU [P:738]...
Important settings and function-related characteristics are factory-programmed into the electronic drive unit as parameters. Each parameter has a three-digit number and a description.
