The total process runtime is shown in the base line.
page 41 of 74 ☞ Delay: ”Delay” determines the time the coolant valve remains open after the process has been stopped. Determines also the time the pump (only with VMS module and in-line valve) remains running after the process has been stopped. The ”Delay” is adjustable in a range of 1-300 minutes or can be set to ”Off” (”Off” means that the coolant valve closes immediately - and that a pump with VMS module and in-line valve is switched off immediately - when the process stops.).
page 42 of 74 This program can be transferred to a storage space and edited. Once the program is finished, the clock symbol starts to flash. Confirm the end of the program by pressing START/STOP (clock symbol will disappear).

In case no boiling vacuum is detected, the controller controls to 20 Torr/mbar/hPa. The following step starts once the cumulative process time reaches the set limit (1 hour/60 minutes), even if the preset pressure (20 Torr/mbar/hPa) has not been reached. Step 4 vents to atmospheric pressure as fast as possible and switches off the control after one minute.

As soon as evaporation starts, press ”MODE” key (switching to ”Vac control”). The vacuum level is kept constant (at the boiling pressure).
page 48 of 74 alternatively: ☞ Select ”Vac control” function to dry at a predetermined vacuum level. ☞ Set ”Set vacuum” to the preferred evaporation vacuum of the solvent. Adapt ”Hysteresis” if necessary. ☞ Set a process time (”Duration”) if necessary. ☞ Start process by pressing ”START/STOP” key. Vacuum for filtration and suction ☞ Select ”Pump down” function. ☞ Set ”Minimum” to a value which provides adequate suction but does not lead to evaporation of the solvent.
page 49 of 74 Configuration In the ”Configuration” menu the device parameters are preselected. After 20 seconds without action the function ”Configuration” and its submenus (except submenu ”Sensors”) are quit automatically without storing any possibly changed parameter. Preselections ☞ Use the selection knob to select the parameters. ☞ Adjustment: Adjustment of the pressure transducer under vacuum and/or at atmospheric pressure, see also section “Readjustment”, pg. 51.
page 50 of 74 ☞ Autostart: If ”Autostart” is set to ”On” the controller restarts a running process automatically after a mains failure. If this is unwanted, set ”Autostart” to ”Off”. Attention: If ”Autostart” is preselected, the process starts immediately after power failure without pressing any further key. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that no dangerous status of the system due to the automatic startup can occur and to provide appropriate safety measures.
page 51 of 74 Readjustment NOTICE The vacuum gauge was adjusted using factory standards, which are traceable through regular calibration in an accredited laboratory (DAkkS calibration laboratory) to the German national pressure standard. Depending on the process and/or accuracy requirements, check the adjustment and readjust if necessary. For readjustment, the device has to be adjusted both at atmospheric pressure as well as under vacuum but only if the reference pressures are known with certainty.
page 52 of 74 Adjustment under vacuum 0 Torr An adjustment under vacuum is only possible if the pressure is lower than 15 Torr (20 mbar) absolute. ➨ Evacuate the measurement connection of the controller or in case that of a connected optional external gauge head VSK 3000 to a pressure < 0.1 Torr (mbar) (e.g., by applying a good two-stage rotary vane pump). ➨ In ”Configuration” menu, select program ”Adjustment” at the controller. ☞ The reading is automatically adjusted to ”zero”.
page 53 of 74 Calibration in the factory Control of measuring equipment The VACUUBRAND DAkkS calibration laboratory is accredited by the Deutsche Akkreditierungsstelle GmbH (national accreditation body of the Federal Republic of Germany) for the measurable variable pressure in the pressure range from 7.
page 54 of 74 ➨ Drain the solvent and dispose of in accordance with regulations. Repeat cleaning if necessary. ➨ Rinse the measurement chamber several times with alcohol in order to remove all solvent residues. ➨ Allow the pressure transducer to dry. ➨ Readjust the pressure transducer if necessary.
