4 Product Description 4 Product Description 4.1 General description of the pump The pump is a classic dry-running rotary vane vac- uum pump. It consists of a housing, the eccentrically mounted rotor (2), the radially moving vanes (3) and the inlet and outlet (4+6). When the rotor turns, the air that is sucked in flows through the suction filter (5) into the expanding chamber (1) until the suction filter is blocked off by...
4 Product Description 4.3 Safety Features and Protective Devices DANGER Risk of fatal injury due to defective, removed or manipulated protective de- vices 4 Check that all safety and protective devices are fully installed and functioning. The figure below shows an overview of the pump with the names of the protective devices. Terminal box cover (terminal box cover side) The protective devices on the pump must not be disassembled, modified or taken out of operation.

8 Installation 8 Installation 8.1 Installation Instructions To ensure safe installation, observe the following instructions: 1. Where necessary, remove the transport guards before installing the product. 2. Only put the product into operation under the operating parameters and conditions described in the “Technical Data” chapter. 3.
8 Installation 8.3 Mounting Before mounting the pump at the installation location, bring it to the ambient temperature. Rubber buffers are installed to prevent the transmission of structural vibrations from the pump to the sur- rounding area. Place the pump on a workbench or the floor. Since the pump is not fastened to a holder, there is a possi- bility that the pump will move due to vibrations generated during operation.
9 Operation 9 Operation 9.1 Switching On the Pump 4 Switch on the vacuum pump using the integrated power switch on the connection cable. ð If the vacuum pump sucks in air against the atmosphere, the pressure gauge shows a vacuum level of 0. Note the following during vacuum pump operation: •...
9 Operation 9.3 Switching Off the Pump 4 To release the workpiece, switch off the vacuum pump using the integrated power switch on the connection cable and vent the system to the atmosphere. The pump should be switched off before removing the power plug for the device from the power outlet. 9.4 Recommissioning Following storage and downtime periods, you must check that the pump is operating correctly.
Pump mechanically blocked 1. Rule out electrical causes; check that the motor fan can run freely (with a screwdriver). 2. Contact Schmalz Service. 4 Replace the faulty line elements. Conveying power, vac- Leakage in vacuum line, hose connec- uum or pressure too...

The fault cannot be corrected If you cannot identify any of the listed causes, send the pump to Schmalz customer service. 1. Flush the pump with air for a number of minutes (if required for safety reasons: with an inert gas) at the atmospheric pressure to clear hazardous or abrasive gases from the pump head.
11 Maintenance 11 Maintenance Follow the detailed description from the safety instructions in the “Residual Risks” chapter. If a maintenance task requires any protective devices to be disassembled, they must be disassembled only for the duration of the maintenance task. After the maintenance task is complete, all protective devices are to be fully installed in their designated location immediately and checked for functionality.
