1.1 General information
Read and comply with this manual before installing or operating the equipment.
Removeallpackingmaterial,removetheproductfromitspacking-box,removethe
protectivecoversfromtheinletandoutletportsandkeep,inspecttheequipment.
If the equipment is damaged, notify the supplier and the carrier in writing within three
days; state the item number of the product together with the order number and the
supplier’sinvoicenumber.Retainallpackingmaterialforinspection.
Do not use the equipment if it is damaged.
If the equipment is not used immediately, replace the protective covers. Store the
equipment in suitable conditions.
1.2 Intended use
☞ The pump and all system parts must not be used on humans or animals.
☞ Prevent any part of the human body from coming in contact with vacuum.
☞ Ensure that the individual components are only connected, combined and oper-
ated according to their design and as indicated in the instructions for use.
☞ Comply with notes on correct vacuum and electrical connections, see section
”Use and operation”.
• Thepumpsaredesignedforambient temperatures during operation between

isnotexceeded.
• Particles and dust must not be aspirated.
Use the equipment for the intended use only, i.e. for generation, control and meas-
urement of vacuum in vessels designed for that purpose.
1.3 Setting up and installing the equipment
➨ Equipment must be connected only to a suitably fused and protected electri-
cal supply and a suitable earth point. Failure to connect the motor to ground may
resultindeadlyelectricalshock.
 ThemainscablemaybettedwithamouldedEuropeanIECplugoraplugsuit-
able for your local electrical supply. If the plug has been removed or has to be
removed, the cable will contain wires colour coded as follows: green or green and
yellow:earth;blueorwhite:neutral;brownorblack:live.
☞ Due to the high compression ratio of the pump, the pressure at the outlet port
might get higher than the maximum permissible pressure compatible with the
mechanical stability of the system.
☞ Do not permit any uncontrolled pressurizing(e.g.makesurethattheexhaust
pipelinecannotbecomeblocked).Ifthereisanexhaustisolationvalve,makesure
that you cannot operate the equipment with the valve closed. Risk of bursting!
