11.3.4 Inspecting for Deposit
Leaving the STP pump without removing the deposit may cause the STP
pump to be corroded beyond repair.
Deposit may have accumulated inside the STP pump depending upon the type of the vacuum
equipment installed to the STP pump.
An increase in the amount of deposit may lead to a malfunction of the STP pump.
Therefore, perform regular maintenance (once every 3 to 6 months).
Inspect the inside of the outlet port flange for adhesion of deposit while watching the outlet
port flange. If deposit has accumulated to some extent, an overhaul (cleaning) is required.
Contact Service office.
Note that the costs of troubleshooting problems resulting from deposit will be at your own
charge even during the warranty period.
If a problem resulting from deposit occurs inside the STP pump, hermetically seal the inlet
port, outlet port, purge port, and leak port flanges, and immediately return the pump to
Service office.
For the transport method, see Section 11.3.6, "Transporting for Repair or Overhaul".
◇ Contact with atmospheric air may cause a reaction of the deposit. DO NOT open
the STP pump to atmospheric air as much as possible.
