Set up and operation 4.3 Areas of application The screw vacuum pumps are suitable for the evacuation of closed systems or for a continuous vacuum within the following intake pressure ranges: 0.1 to 1000 mbar (abs.). They are also particularly suitable for feeding in extremely damp gases. The water vapour compatibility is very high. The maximum pumping capacity with free suction is 110 m3/h and 320 m3/h at 50 Hz. Data sheet D 832 shows the dependency of the pumping capacity on the intake pressure.
Set up and operation 4.4 Cooling the machine 4.4.1 Continuous flow cooling (Standard version) With continuous flow cooling water flows continuously through the cavity in the double walled compressor housing. For safety reasons the cooling system should be fitted with a solenoid valve, temperature and a flow switch. The assembly group continuous flow water cooling (Fig. 5) as well as a special control unit are obtainable. U5 U4 U3 U1 D C U6 U2 Fig.

Installation 5 Installation 5.1 Preparing for installation Check the following points: • • • • • Machine freely accessible from all sides Do not close ventilation grids and holes Sufficient room for installing and removing pipes and for maintenance work, particularly for installing and dismantling the machine No external vibration effects Do not suck any hot exhaust air from other machines into the cooling system. The oil filling point (Fig. 2/H, H1), oil sight glass (Fig.
Installation 5.3 Connecting pipes a) Vacuum connection at (Fig. 2/A, 3/A). NOTICE Material damage resulting from the forces and torques of the pipes on the unit being too high. Only screw pipes in by hand. The pumping capacity of the vacuum pump is reduced if the suction pipe is too narrow and/or too long. b) The discharged air can be blown out through the exhaust silencer (ZSZ) at (Fig. 2/B, 3/B) or conducted away using a hose or a pipe.
Installation 5.4 Connecting the cooling water pipe NOTICE Cooling water control! The vacuum pump must not be operated without cooling water control. Danger breakdown of the pump Ensure that the cooling water stream is not interrupted. a) Connect the cooling water pipe to the cooling water inlet (Fig. 2/C, 3/C) and the cooling water discharge pipe to the cooling water outlet (Fig. 2/D, 3/D).
Installation b) When connecting a circulating cooling system to an external cooling system, it must be filled with cooling fluid. NOTICE Rinse the pipe network on the customer side before connecting it A filter element must be installed in the pipe network to prevent foreign bodies getting into the heat exchanger. Risk of frost damage in the cooling system Freezing cooling water may lead to extensive damage to the machine. Therefore mix the cooling water with at least 10 % of anti-freeze.
Installation 5.5 Filling with lubricating oil a) Fill the lubricating oil (for suitable sorts see „Maintenance“) for the gear teeth and the bearings into the oil filling points (Fig. 2/H, 2/H1) up to the middle of the inspection glasses (Fig. 2/ I, 2/I1). b) Close the oil filling points. 5.6 Connecting the motor DANGER Danger of death if the electrical installation has not been done professionally! The electrical installation may only be done by a specialist electrician observing EN 60204.
Commissioning and decommissioning 6 Commissioning and decommissioning 6.1 Commissioning WARNING Improper use May lead to severe or fatal injuries. Therefore be sure to obey the safety instructions. CAUTION Hot surfaces When the machine is at operating temperature the surface temperatures on the components (Fig. 2/ Q) may go above 70°C.
Commissioning and decommissioning 6.1.1 Checking the rotation direction The drive shaft direction of rotation is shown by the rotation direction arrow (Fig. 2/O) on the motor flange. a) Start the motor briefly (max. two seconds) to check the direction of rotation. When looking at the motor fan, it must rotate clockwise. NOTICE Incorrect direction of rotation Operating in the wrong direction of rotation leads to damage to the machine.
Maintenance and repair 7 Maintenance and repair DANGER Danger of death from touching live parts! Before maintenance work disconnect the machine by pressing the main switch or unplugging it and ensure that it cannot be turned on again. WARNING Hot surfaces and equipment During maintenance work there is the danger of getting burnt on hot components (Fig. 2/Q) and by the machine lubricating oil. Wait for the machine to cool down. 7.
Maintenance and repair 7.2 Maintenance work Interval Maintenance to be carried out Section monthly Check the pipes and screws for leaks and to ensure they are seated properly and if necessary seal again or tighten up. — monthly Check the cooling water system and the pipes. — monthly Check the terminal box and cable inlet holes for leaks and if necessary re-seal. — monatlich Kühlrippen der Maschine und des Motor reinigen. — monthly Check the oil level 7.2.

If it is not completely emptied the amount that can be refilled is reduced. The waste oil must be disposed of in compliance with the local environmental protection regulations.
Maintenance and repair 7.2.2 Air filtering S-VSI (12) A f U Fig. 9 Air filtering A Vacuum connection U Gas ballast valve (S-VSI (12)) f Mesh filter NOTICE Insufficient maintenance on the air filter The power of the machine lessens and damage may occur to the machine. The mesh filter (Fig. 9/f) built into the vacuum connection (Fig. 9/A) must be cleaned by washing respectively blowing it out (depending on the level of contamination of the suctioned medium) or replaced. 28 | www.gd-elmorietschle.
Maintenance and repair h1 f3 f4 Gas ballast valve filter: The pumps S-VSI (12) work with a gas ballast valve (Fig. 9/U). The inbuilt filter disc Fig. 10/f3) and micro filter discs Fig. 10/f4) must be cleaned more or less often by purging depending on how dirty the medium flowing through is. By undoing the countersunk screw (Fig. 10/g1) and removing the plastic cover (Fig. 10/ h1) the filter parts can be removed for cleaning. Re-assemble in reverse order. g1 f4 Fig.
Maintenance and repair 7.2.3 Coupling The coupling sprocket (Fig. 12/k) is subject to wear and must be checked regularly (at least once a year). s5 CAUTION k n m q Fig. 12 Coupling k Coupling sprocket m Motor n Motor flange housing q Coupling half on the motor side s5 Screws Defective coupling sprocket Defective sprockets may lead to the rotor shaft breaking. To check the coupling switch the motor (Fig. 12/m) off and ensure that it cannot be switched on again. Undo the screws (Fig.
Maintenance and repair 7.3 Repair/ Service a) For on site repair work the motor must be disconnected from the mains by a qualified electrician so that it cannot be started up again accidentally.
