Function description
The following important settings are programmed in the electronic drive unit ex factory.
● Parameter [P:027] Gas mode: 0 = heavy gases
● Parameter [P:700] Set value max. run-up time monitoring: 8 min
● Parameter [P:701] Rotation speed switchpoint: 80% of the nominal roation speed
● Parameter [P:707] Set value in rotation speed setting mode: 65 % of the nominal ro-
tation speed
● Parameter [P:708] Set value power consumption: 100 %
● Parameter [P:720] Venting rotation speed at delayed venting: 50 % of the nominal ro-
tation speed
● Parameter [P:721] Venting time: 3600 s
When water cooling is used: Open cooling water supply and check the flow.
When sealing gas is used: Open the sealing gas supply and check the flow.
Establish the mains for the power supply.
Risk of destroying the pump by inputting too much energy
Simultaneous loading by means of high drive power (gas flow rate, fore-vacuum pres-
sure), high heat radiation, or strong magnetic fields results in uncontrolled heating of the
rotor and may destroy the pump.
Reduced limit values apply when combining these loads.
If necessary consult with Pfeiffer Vacuum.
Danger of the pump being destroyed
Pumping of gases with a higher molecular mass in the wrong gas mode can lead to de-
struction of the pump.
Ensure the gas mode is correctly set.
Contact Pfeiffer Vacuum before using gases with a greater molecular mass (> 80).
The following operation modes are available:
● Operation without operating unit
● Operation via "remote" connection
● Operation via RS-485 and Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control units or PC
● Operation via field bus
Danger due to open high vacuum flange
The rotor of the turbopump turns at high speed. If the high vacuum flange is open, there
is a danger of cut injuries and that the pump can be destroyed by objects falling into it.
Never operate the pump with an open high vacuum flange.
