The maximum permissible discharge pressure for the DRYVAC is 1.2 bar abs. Always operate the pump with a connected exhaust line. The exhaust line must be designed for the specific kind of application and shall be connected to a central exhaust gas system.
Page 9
The pump must only be operated at the frequency specified for the motor. Use only the Leybold frequency converter. Install a suitable motor protection for the electric motor before starting up for the first time. Note the information in these Operating Instructions and on the nameplate.

Since not all application related hazards for vacuum systems can be described in detail in these Operating Instructions, Leybold has avail- able a separate document (Safety Booklet) in which the hazards and general safety concepts for design, operation and maintenance of vac- uum systems are explained.

For this see Section 5.1 Service at Leybold. Leybold is not in a position to perform servicing (repairs) and waste disposal of radioactively contaminated pumps. Both needs to be ensured from the side of the user.

Fig. 1.1 DRYVAC DV 1200 without side covers Description Design The DRYVAC DV 1200 is a dry compressing screw vacuum pump. It is equipped with two pump stages running in parallel. The DRYVAC DV 1200 ATEX cat. 2i is capable of delivering an optimised pumping speed performance also at pressures over 100 mbar.

Ensure that it cannot tip over. Due to the castors which have been fitted, the DRYVAC must only be installed on a level surface capable of carrying the weight of the pump as otherwise there exists the danger of the pump rolling away.

Connect the exhaust line to an abatement system with sufficient throughput, Abatement if required by the process. The DRYVAC pumps will be switched off because of overpressure if the abatement system is too small. Connect the exhaust lines to the pump system‘s exhaust connections. Use bellows to eliminate tension in the line.

15.0 12.0 10.0 The DRYVAC pumps are equipped with a built-in pressure reducer. We rec- ommend not to change the setting. A screen has been built into the pressure reducer protecting the valve seat against coarse contamination, see also Section 5.4 Maintenance.

The third gas inlet inserts the purge gas directly into the pumping chamber (rotor purge). Connect nitrogen or air as purge gas. If in doubt, please contact Leybold. Gas temperature 0 to +50°C.

Possible purge gases are N2 and CDA only. NOTICE The safety always has to be considered (please be careful with air purges and read the safety booklet of Leybold). Exhaust shaft seal purge is running in most of all applications all the time. Rotor purge In most cases not used all the time, often active in specific process steps.

(0.9 mm nozzle) as well, i.e. with pressure rises and ventilation. With the accessory “Permanent Inlet Purge Kit”, the inlet side of the DRYVAC pump may be protected against being contaminated. This is effect- ed by a permanent, comparatively small purge flow (0.5 SLM). For this, the Permanent Inlet Purge Kit is so connected that it is always opened when also the purge gas on the exhaust side (motor side) of the pump is open;...

The non-return valve is a fitting for shutting off which is fitted to the exhaust flange of the DRYVAC. It prevents gas from flowing back into the pump. With the pump running, the non-return valve opens more or less wide depending on the gas flow.

The GSD file for Profibus and the manual can be downloaded from www.leybold.com. The GSD file for the versions in this manual is different from the GSD file for the DRYVAC-i versions. Do not mix them up. Safe Connection and Run-up The two screw pumps running in parallel must always run simultaneously.

Instructions: “Declaration of Contamination for Compressors, Vacuum Pumps and Components”. Another suitable form is available from www.leybold.com/ -> Downloads -> Download Documents. Attach the form to each pump. This statement detailing the type of contamination is required to satisfy legal requirements and for the protection of our employees.

Fill in new oil at a pump temperature of 15 ºC to 25 ºC. For this use a clean funnel. Make sure to use the right kind of oil. Only use Leybold oil. To prevent the occurrence of sparks by electrostatic charging, only approved oils which exhibit a minimum conductance must be used.

Waste oil from vacuum pumps must not be mixed with other substances or materials. Waste oil from vacuum pumps (Leybold oils which are based on mineral oils) which are subject to normal wear and which are contaminated due to the influence of oxygen in the air, high temperatures or mechanical wear must be disposed of through the locally available waste oil disposal system.
