– Keep the eye bolts for future use. 4.2 Storage We recommend Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends storing the products in their original transport packaging. Storing the turbopump 1. Seal all flange openings with the original protective caps. 2. Seal all other connections (e.g. venting connection) with the corresponding original parts.
Installation 5 Installation The installation of the turbopump and its fastening is of outstanding importance. The rotor of the turbo- pump revolves at very high speed. In practice it is not possible to exclude the risk of the rotor touching the stator (e.g. due to the penetration of foreign bodies into the high vacuum connection). The kinetic energy released acts on the housing and on the anchoring of the turbopump within fractions of a sec- ond.
● Make sure that all the torques generated if the rotor blocks suddenly, are absorbed by the system on the operator side and the high vacuum connection. ● Only use the approved mounting kits of Pfeiffer Vacuum for the high vacuum connec- tion of the turbopump.
Installation 5.2.3 Using splinter shield or protective screen Pfeiffer Vacuum centering rings with splinter shield or protective screen in the high vacuum flange pro- tect the Turbopump against foreign matter from the vacuum chamber. The pumping speed is reduced according to the passage guide values and the size of the high vacuum flange.
Flange connection ISO-F, hexagon head screw and tapped hole Connection of the hexagon head screw and tapped hole 1. Only use approved mounting kits by Pfeiffer Vacuum for the connection. 2. Attach the turbopump with centering ring to the counter flange according to the figure.

Use the turbopump only in combination with a suitable backing pump that can deliver up to the required maximum fore-vacuum pressure. To achieve the fore-vacuum pressure, use a suitable vacuum pump or a pumping station from the Pfeiffer Vacuum range. In this case, the backing pump is also controlled directly via the turbopump electronic drive unit interfaces (e.g., relay box or connection cable).
Installation Fig. 16: Example of fore-vacuum connection on HiPace 3400 IT 1 Turbopump fore-vacuum connection Clamping ring 2 Vacuum components DN 40 ISO-KF Centering ring 3 Backing pump (e.g. two-stage rotary pump) Establish the fore-vacuum connection 1. With rigid pipe connections, include bellows to attenuate external vibrations.
2 Cooling water inlet, 1/4" thread Threaded nozzle (2x) Procedure Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends the use of a dirt trap in the supply line. 1. Screw one hose nozzle with sealing ring onto each of the turbopump's cooling water connections. – Tightening torque: max. 15 Nm 2.
3 Return line Procedure Pfeiffer Vacuum recommends the use of a dirt trap in the supply line. 1. Debur the internal and external diameter of the pipe on the connection side. 2. Insert the pipe into the pipe fitting up to the limit stop.
► Observe the installation instructions in the operating instructions for the relevant accessory. ► Note the existing configuration of existing connections. ► If configuration is necessary, use a Pfeiffer Vacuum control unit. 5.7 Connecting sealing gas The use of sealing gas serves to protect the turbopump in dusty processes or with excessive gas throughputs.
Installation Installing the mains disconnection device 1. Install a mains disconnection device as a main switch. 2. Specify the mains disconnection device according to SEMI-S2. 3. Use a circuit breaker with an interrupting capacity of at least 10 kA. 5.8.1 Installing miniature circuit breaker Circuit breaker Tripping characteristic B or C according to IEC 60947-2...
There are two options for the mains connection for the turbopump and the TMS box. ► Make sure that you have the correct supply voltage. ► Order a corresponding power supply cable from the Pfeiffer Vacuum accessories range. ► Assemble your own power supply cable using the HAN 3A connecting sockets from the shipment.
Simultaneous loading by means of high drive power (gas throughput, fore-vacuum pressure), high heat radiation, or strong magnetic fields results in uncontrolled heating of the rotor and can destroy the vacuum pump. ► Consult Pfeiffer Vacuum before combining varying loads on the vacuum pump. Lower limit val- ues apply. NOTICE...
Instructions for operation without control panel 1. Use only the approved Pfeiffer Vacuum mating plug with bridges on the connection of the elec- tronic drive unit. 2. Switch on the mains supply of the turbopump only immediately before operation.
Operation 6.2.5 Operation via field bus Integrating and operating Pfeiffer Vacuum turbopumps in the customer's field bus system is possible when using an electronic drive unit with a corresponding connection panel. The following are available: ● Profibus ● Profinet ● EtherCAT ●...

► Observe the prescribed maximum pressure rise speed of 15 hPa/s. ► Avoid manual and uncontrolled venting of very low volumes. ► Where necessary, use a venting valve from the Pfeiffer Vacuum range of accessories. Manual venting Manual venting describes the standard process for venting the turbo pumping station.
Page 47
General information for fast venting We recommend fast venting of larger volumes in 4 steps. 1. Use a Pfeiffer Vacuum venting valve for the turbopump, or match the valve cross-section to the size of the recipient and maximum venting rate.
5. Replace the operating fluid at least every 4 years. 6. Have Pfeiffer Vacuum Service replace the rotor bearing of the turbopump at least every 4 years. 7. Perform a pressure test on the cooling water system once every year.
Maintenance 7.3 Changing the operating fluid WARNING Risk of poisoning from contact with harmful substances The operating fluid and parts of the turbopump may contain toxic substances from pumped media. ► Decontaminate affected parts before carrying out maintenance work. ► Prevent health hazards or environmental impacts with adequate safety precautions. ►...
► Only fill the turbopump with operating fluid after mechanical installation. ► Fill the turbopump with operating fluid via one of the filler screws marked with an oil can symbol only. ► If in doubt, contact Pfeiffer Vacuum. Required consumables ● Operating fluid F3, 50 ml Required tools ●...
Maintenance Fig. 23: The position of the filler screws depends on the mounting orientation. Example: U versions Direction of the high vacuum connection Procedure 1.
