When the power is restored aer a power failure, the behavior of the pump depends on
the control mode at the me of failure (parallel or serial) and the duraon of me the
pump was without power. Refer to Table: Behaviour of a pump when the power is re-
instated aer an electrical supply failure on page 80 for number of scenarios.
Table 26
Behaviour of a pump when the power is restored aer an electrical supply failure
Length of power failure Control mode Behaviour of pump
Power is restored before
the rotaonal speed of the
pump decreases below
50%
Parallel or serial
control mode
Regenerave power keeps all output signals
acve during the power failure. The pump will
speed up to designated speed aer the power
has been restored.
Power is restored aer the
rotaonal speed of the
pump decreases below
50% but before
regenerave power stops
Parallel or serial
control mode, mer
disabled
Regenerave power keeps all output signals
acve during the power failure. As the mer is
disabled, the motor controller will go to the fail
condion when the speed decreases below 50%
and will display ashing error code 0. When the
power is restored, the pump will not speed up
unl the error is cleared. To clear the error, send
a stop command (parallel or serial, depend on
the control mode), send a start command to
speed up the pump to the designated speed.
Parallel or serial
control mode, mer
enabled
Regenerave power keeps all output signals
acve during the power failure. If power is
restored before the mer period expires, the
pump will speed up to designated speed. If the
mer period expires, the motor controller will go
into fail condion and will display ashing error
code 3. When the power is restored, the pump
will not speed up unl the error is cleared. To
clear the error, send a stop command (parallel or
serial, depend on the control mode), send a start
command to speed up the pump to the
designated speed.
Power is restored aer the
rotaonal speed of the
pump decreases below
50% and the regenerave
power stops
Parallel or serial
control mode
Regenerave power stops and fails to keep
output signals. When power is restored, the
pump with parallel control will automacally
restart if the start control on the logic interface
is set to start. The pump with serial control
requires a new start command to speed up the
pump to the designated speed. The fail signals
caused during the regenerave power period
are lost when the power is restored.
6.9 Bakeout
If the pump (and the vacuum system) are heated, the degassing process will speed up
and the pump will reach ulmate vacuum in the shortest possible me. Heang the
pump will also prevent condensaon of vapours inside the pump.
