Installation and operation of accessories Pfeiffer Vacuum pumps can be equipped with a series of adapted accessories. The in- stallation, operation and maintenance of connected devices are described in detail in the operating instructions of the individual components.
Safety ● Do not loosen any plug connection during operations. ● Wait for the rotor to reach standstill before peforming work on the high vacuum flange. ● Keep leads and cables well away from hot surfaces (> 70 °C). ● Never fill or operate turbopump with cleaning agent. ●...
Safety ● The vacuum pump may only be used to generate a vacuum. ● Only operate the turbopump with an approved backing pump. Improper use Improper use will cause all claims for liability and warranties to be forfeited. Improper use is defined as usage for purposes deviating from those mentioned above, especially: ●...
Transport and storage Transport and storage Transport Reuse the transport container of the vacuum pump. – Transport or ship vacuum pumps in the original packing preferably. Only remove the protective covers from the high vacuum and the fore-vacuum side immediately before connection.

The turbopump HiPace 300 M forms a complete unit together with the electronic drive and magnetic bearing unit TM 700 (in the following just: "electronic drive unit"). For the voltage supply only Pfeiffer Vacuum power supplies may be used (e.g.TPS, OPS or DCU).
Product description Range of application The pump HiPace 300 M must be installed and operated under the following ambient conditions: Installation location weather protected (indoors) Protection category IP 54 Protection class Ambient temperature +5 °C to +30 °C with convection cooling without gas throughput +5 °C to +35 °C with air cooling +5 °C to +40 °C with water cooling max.
Only use approved original parts from Pfeiffer Vacuum (Accessories) for the installa- tion. Installation and operation of accessories Pfeiffer Vacuum pumps can be equipped with a series of adapted accessories. The in- stallation, operation and maintenance of connected devices are described in detail in the operating instructions of the individual components.
5.2.2 Use of a splinter shield or protection screen Pfeiffer Vacuum centering rings with splinter shield or protection screen in the high vac- uum flange protect the turbopump against foreign bodies coming from the chamber. Thus, the pumping speed of the pump is reduced.
Installation Mounting orientation When using dry backing pumps, Pfeiffer Vacuum HiPace pumps are designed for instal- lation in any orientation. Support pipes in front of the vacuum pump or remove them. No force from the pipe system may be exerted on the fixed pump.
Twisting or tearing-off is possible in case the rotor is suddenly blocked due to the fas- tening of pumps on a vacuum chamber with different flange variants. Use only the correct mounting kit from Pfeiffer Vacuum. Pfeiffer Vacuum will not accept any liability for all damages resulting from impermis- sible fastening. NOTICE...

Installation Connecting the fore-vacuum side Recommendation: As backing pump, use a suitable vacuum pump from the Pfeiffer Vacuum programme. WARNING Damage to health due to poisonous gases Process gases can damage health and contaminate the environment. Safely lead away the gas emission from the backing pump! ...
Detailed description for function, configuration and operation with the respective connec- tion panel are given in the specific operating instructions for the electronic drive unit. 5.6.2 Earthing Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends to connect an appropriate earthing wire to derive applica- tive interferences.

To connect two units to one accessory connection, use the appropriate Y-Connector from the Pfeiffer Vacuum range of accessories. Connect the adapter to the appropriate red-coded connection on the TM 700. Y-Connector ...
Counter sunk screw Insert the threaded adapter into the designated borehole of the pump lower part. Fix the Pfeiffer Vacuum air cooling unit to the holes of the turbopump and the threaded adapter using two screws. Plug in and fix the accessory’s control lead to the corresponding accessory connection port on the electronic drive unit.
Installation 5.7.3 Sealing gas connection The turbopump must be operated with sealing gas to protect it, such as in the case of unclean processes or high gas throughput. The supply is made via a sealing gas valve or alternatively via a sealing gas throttle without control. The activation of the control valve for the sealing gas connection is not pre-installed in the electronic drive unit and has to be configured via their interfaces.

Installation CAUTION Risk of burns High temperatures arise when the turbopump or vacuum chamber are baked out. As a result, there is a danger of burns from touching hot parts, even after the casing heating is switched off! Thermally insulate heating jacket, pump housing and vacuum chamber, if possible during installation.
Installation 5.7.5 Water cooling The turbopumps HiPace 300 M with TM 700 have water cooling as standard equipment. ● In case of increased backing pressure (> 0.1 hPa) and/or operation with high gas throughputs, either air or water cooling may be used. ●...
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). 6.1.1 Magnetic bearing calibration In rare cases, the magnetic bearing sensors may trigger re-calibration on enabling of the drive electronics.
Consider the following manuals for the operation via remote control: ● Operating instructions "Electronic drive unit TM 700" 6.3.2 Operation with DCU or HPU Consider the following manuals for the operation via Pfeiffer Vacuum display and con- trol units: ● Operating instructions "DCU" ● Operating instructions "HPU"...
The magnetic bearing sensorics permanently monitor the current rotor balance. The bal- ance is expressed as a percentage of the maximum possible rotor imbalance due to the drive electronics and can be viewed via the RS-485 interface using the Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control unit or PC.
Only vent the pump via the provided venting valve. Do not replace the Pfeiffer Vacuum venting valve by other venting units. It is recommended first to vent via the Pfeiffer Vacuum venting valve until a rotation speed of 6000 rpm, before using additional venting units.
Decontaminate affected parts before carrying out maintenance work. NOTICE Disclaimer of liability Pfeiffer Vacuum accepts no liability for personal injury or material damage, losses or op- erating malfunctions due to improperly performed maintenance. The liability and war- ranty entitlement expires.
Maintenance / replacement Only separate the pump and the electronic drive unit from each other after disconnect- ing the supply voltage and the complete standstill of the pump. Remove the vacuum pump from the system, if necessary. Unscrew the venting valve control lead from the electronic drive unit. ...
Check turbopump for contamination and moisture. Clean the turbopump externally with a lint-free cloth and little industrial alcohol. If necessary, have Pfeiffer Vacuum Service clean the turbopump completely. Installation and commissioning in accordance with the operating instructions.
Reset via pin 13 on the "remote" connection Differentiated malfunction display is possible via "RS 485" Contact the Pfeiffer Vacuum Service If no Pfeiffer Vacuum display and control unit is available, please contact the Pfeiffer Vacuum Service.
