Installation WARNING Danger due to lack of power disconnection device Pump and electronic drive unit are not equipped with a power disconnection device. In- stallation of a user-supplied power disconnection device in accordance with SEMI-S2. Fit a circuit breaker with an interruption rating of min. 10,000 A. WARNING Danger of electric shock In case of defect, the parts connected to the mains supply are under voltage.
Remote control is possible via the 26-pin D-sub connector labelled "remote" on the elec- tronic drive unit. The accessible individual functions are mapped to "PLC levels". Remove the remote plug from the TCP 1200 and connect a remote control unit. Pin assignment of the connector according to table.
The digital inputs at connection "remote" are used to connect various functions of the electronic drive unit. Functions are assigned to the inputs DI1 - DI2 ex factory. These can be configured via interface RS-485 and the Pfeiffer Vacuum parameter set. DI1 (Enable venting) / Pin 2...
6.2.5 RS-485 One Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control panel (DCU or HPU) or an external PC can be connected respectively to the electronic drive unit via Pin 24 and Pin 25 of the connec- tion "remote" on the electronic drive unit.
The connection designated "RS-485" on the electronic drive unit is occupied with the built-in display and control unit DCU 002. The external connection of a Pfeiffer Vacuum handheld programming unit (HPU) or a PC is possible. The interface is electrically iso- lated from the maximum supply voltage of the electronic drive unit.
Connection "RS-485" Cross-linking via the connection RS-485 USB/RS485-converter USB/RS485-converter RS 485 CAUTION Danger of electric shock The insulation measures of the bus system are designed only for use with safety extra- low voltage. Connect only suitable devices to the bus system. ...
Connecting a measuring device Connecting a measuring device The connector socket labelled "Gauge" can be used to operate a Pfeiffer Vacuum pres- sure measuring device from the ActiveLine series. Pressure measurement with the TCP 1200 The pressure measurement using the TCP 1200 electronic drive unit is linked directly with the DCU integrated display and control unit.
All function-relevant variables of a turbopump are anchored in the electronic drive unit as parameters. Each parameter has a three-digit number and a designation. Parameters can be used via Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control units or via RS-485 with the Pfeiffer Vacuum protocol.

Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends the intermittend mode between 5 and 10 hPa. A pressure gauge and a dosing valve are required to set the switching thresholds.
The Pfeiffer Vacuum parameter set Read and note the parameter [P:316]. Adjust the switch on threshold backing pump via parameter [P:711] to the determined drive power for a fore-vacuum pressure of 10 hPa. Reduce the fore-vacuum pressure to 5 hPa.
The Pfeiffer Vacuum parameter set No venting No venting is performed during this operation mode. Parameter [P:030] = 1 Direct venting Start and venting time are not configurable. Venting starts with a delay of 6 s after "pump- ing station off". When the function "pumping station" is switched on renewed, the venting valve closes automatically.
