  • Page 16: Setting Up

    3. Setting up 3.1 Installation Installation must be done at a place of low moisture, low dust particle, and also level. The layout arrangement should be considered for setting up, overhaul, checking, or cleaning the pump. When setting up the pump in any systems, pay attention to temperature in atmosphere.
  • Page 17: Fig-3 Oil Charge To Rotary Vacuum Pump

    Fig-3 Oil Charge to Rotary Vacuum Pump ① Wear protective rubber gloves or goggles. ② Before charging oils ,read the 「1.2 Material Safety Data Sheet(MSDS)」 . When the contaminated oil touching the skin or coming into the eye accidentally, follow the item first-aid-treatment of「Material Safety Data Sheet(MSDS)」.
  • Page 18: Vacuum Tubing

    3.3 Vacuum Tubing (1) Clean inner surfaces of vacuum vessel, tubing and valve. Then, after eliminating water moisture, small particle, dust or rust carefully, connect tube to the pump. If evacuating small size powder or dust particle, vacuum pump may cause trouble.
  • Page 19: Electric Wiring

    3.4 Electric wiring (1) This pump has performed beforehand electric wiring by the side of a pump. (2) Plug the power wire cord in the power outlet of 100V, single phase. (3) The over-load protector (thermal protector, manual reset type) is provided for this pump.
