STP-iXA4507 series Turbomolecular Pump
4.8 Second speed option
When the second speed option is enabled, the second rating speed can be set independently of the
normal rating speed setting. Either the second or normal rating speed can be selected by I/O remote
input or serial communication port.
The second speed setting can be changed from serial communication port, or STP-Link. (see Section
5.4, "Command specifications")
Table 15 shows the STP pump actions when switching the speeds.
The difference
between the Normal
Speed and the
Second Speed
Setting is more than
approximately 10%
When the rotational speed becomes lower, the STP pump enters
the BRAKE mode and decelerates.
When the rotational speed becomes higher, the STP pump enters
the ACCEL mode and accelerates.
The STP pump will enter the normal mode when the rotational
speed is within +10% of the speed setting.
