2.2.1 COMBI The COBRA DS 9161 B vacuum pumps are a combination of a screw vacuum pump NS 0600 C (DP) and a Booster vacuum pump WY 075 (MB). The COMBI vacuum pumps are streamlined. The vacuum systems COBRA DS standard version is a combination of one or more COBRA NS (DP 600) vacuum pumps with cooling water and nitrogen circuits and one or more WY (MB) rotary lobes boosters with a variable speed drive.
2 | Product Description Structure The vacuum system COBRA DS is made of the following elements: ● Horizontal silencer mounted on each vacuum pump (standard). ● Vertical silencer installed behind each vacuum pump to collect condensates in an external tank. This silencer is water cooled (min.13 l/min ). ●...
Product Description | 2 ● The circuit of cooling liquid (mix of water and glycol) inside the water chambers (6) of cylinder and endplate of cylinder B-side. An indirect circuit is made with a water pump mounted at the endplate of cylinder B-side. The flow of the cooling water is controlled by a flow switch FS 1. If the flow is under 1 l/min during a minimum time of 30 seconds, then the pump stops.
● FS 1: cooling liquid flow control ● TS 2: cooling liquid temperature See "Installation and Maintenance Instructions, Busch PLC and Busch LCD (No. 0870758077)". On/ Off Switch The vacuum system is delivered with a circuit breaker. The function start/ stop can be done in Local by using the LCD controller or in Remote by the production machine.
The maintenance instructions must be followed and observed. These installation and maintenance instructions must be read and understood before the vacuum pump is used. If you have any doubts, contact your Busch representative. Safety Information The vacuum pump is designed and manufactured in compliance with the latest technical standards and safety regulations.

Installation and Commissioning | 6 Installation and Commissioning Installation Prerequisites It is important for operating safety to observe the instructions when installing the vacuum system. Installation must be carried out by qualified technicians. CAUTION In case of non-compliance with the installation prerequisites, particularly in case of insuffi- cient cooling: Risk of damage or destruction of the vacuum pump vacuum system and its components! Risk of personal injury!
Installation and Commissioning | 6 Depending on the dead weight and size of the vacuum system, use a forklift to move it on several pallets. Or lift the vacuum system usings slings and the appropriate lifting gear to move the vacuum system or remove the pallets.
In the case of long suction lines, the line cross-section should be larger than the intake flange to pre- vent a drop in the performance of the vacuum system. If you have any doubts, contact your Busch representative. 6.1.4...
DN 100 ISO-K for the COBRA DP 600 C inlet (inlet backing vacuum pump) In the case of long intake lines, the line cross-section should be larger than the intake flange to pre- vent a drop in the performance of the vacuum pump. If you have any doubts, contact your Busch representative.
In the case of long discharge lines, the line cross-section should be larger than the discharge flange to prevent a drop in the performance of the vacuum pump. If you have any doubts, contact your Busch representative. 6.1.7 Cooling Water Connection The cooling water is generally connected with a hose (leakproof against oxygen).
● Make sure that an overload cut-out according to EN 60204-1 is provided for the motor. ● Make sure that the drive of the vacuum pump is not disturbed by any electric or electromagnetic interferences. If you have any doubts, contact your Busch representative. CAUTION Overvoltage damages the vacuum system! ●...

Installation and Commissioning | 6 The COBRA DS vacuum pumps are designed for use in the field of microelectronics and similar in- dustries. They can be used to draw in gases and gas mixtures. WARNING When using toxic, inflammable and/or explosive gases, make sure that the system corre- sponds in design to applicable local and national safety regulations and that all applicable safety measures are followed.
Page 42
6 | Installation and Commissioning CAUTION The COBRA DS vacuum pumps could be delivered without oil, without cooling water and with- out cooling liquid. Operation without oil will result in damage to the vacuum pump! The vacuum pump must remain in a horizontal position when it has been filled with oil. CAUTION The COBRA DS vacuum pumps are always delivered without oil, without cooling water and without cooling liquid.
Installation and Commissioning | 6 ● Drain the cooling water completely. ● If necessary, drain the cooling water with the help of compressed air to prevent any risk of frost or corrosion. NOTE When the vacuum system has not been in operation for a few days or when a sticky substance has been sucked, it is possible that the two scroll rotors of the NS (DP) vacuum pump will stick to each other.

6 | Installation and Commissioning If the vacuum system is equipped with a solenoid gate valve in the cooling water circuit: ● Open the solenoid gate valve. ● Make sure that the cooling water flow is set correctly: ● The cooling water flow is factory set on 13 l/min and can be adjusted at the regulating valves CWR 1 &...
Maintenance | 7 Maintenance DANGER Live wires. Risk of electrical shock! ● Electrical installation work must only be executed by qualified personnel. DANGER In case the vacuum system has conveyed gases that have been contaminated with foreign materials that are dangerous to health, the oil and condensates will also be contaminated. These foreign materials can infiltrate the pores, recesses, and other internal spaces of the vac- uum system .
Page 46
7 | Maintenance ● In REMOTE mode, the start/ stop drive of the vacuum system passes through the main machine interface of the vacuum system (the one connected to TOOL) and the COMBI COBRA DS starts si- multaneously. ● In LOCAL mode, the start/ stop drive of the COMBI COBRA DS is done independently. For safety reasons, execute the start of the COMBI COBRA DS simultaneously.

● Change the oil of the gear and bearing housings (both years sides), see “Oil Change [➔ 51]”. ● Have a major overhaul on the vacuum system (contact Busch). 7.1.1 Lock Out/ Tag Out Procedure ● Stop the vacuum system with the remote control (RC) (press on STOP button during 10s).
NOTE Oil does not normally have to be refilled outside the recommended oil change intervals. A drop in the oil level indicates a fault (see "Alarms and warnings -> Busch PLC and Busch LCD"). CAUTION Only fill in oil through the oil filler opening.
Oil “YLC 250 B” contaminated chemically or by foreign bodies. Risk of explosion! If the oil becomes dark: ● Contact your Busch representative without delay. ● Make sure that the oil is either light or transparent. If the oil becomes dark or looks different from the initial color:...
Maintenance | 7 ● Change the oil immediately, see Oil Change. ● Contact your Busch representative to find out why the oil color has changed. 7.2.4 Oil Change DANGER If the vacuum system has pumped gases that were contaminated with foreign bodies that are hazardous to health, the oil is also contaminated with these foreign bodies.
Page 52
7 | Maintenance CAUTION Because the ends of the drain plugs are magnetic, metal swarf can stick to them. Always clean away this swarf when removing the drain plugs. Because of wear and tear of the seals, it is recommended to replace the drain plugs whenever the oil is changed.

● Decontaminate the machine as much as possible and state the contamination status in a ‘Declaration of Contamination’. Busch will only accept machine accompanied by a signed, fully completed and legally binding "decla- ration of contamination", downloadable from the following link: buschvacuum.com/declaration-of- contamination.
9 | Removal from Service Removal from Service DANGER Live wires. Risk of electrical shock! ● Electrical installation work must only be executed by qualified personnel. CAUTION Hot surface. Risk of burns! ● Before doing anything that requires touching the machine, let it cool down first. Temporary Removal from Service Before disconnecting the intake and exhaust lines and switching off the cooling water and nitrogen lines, make sure that the lines have adjusted to atmospheric pressure.
Removal from Service | 9 Dismantling and Disposal DANGER In case the vacuum system has conveyed gases that have been contaminated with harmful foreign material which are harmful to health, the oil and the condensates will also be contam- inated with harmful foreign material. These foreign materials can infiltrate the pores, recesses, and other internal spaces of the vac- uum system.
