Assembly and setting up
NOTE
Ensure that you follow the general
rule, that the recipient (load/vacu-
um container/glass condenser)
should always be connected to the
suction line at its highest point.
This reduces the risk of liquids en-
tering the vacuum pump.
Liquid in the pump chambers makes
the pump properties worse.
Connect the hose connections (IN-
LET/OUTLET) and interfaces in ac-
cordance with the labelling on the
pump and the operating instruc-
tions.
The connections are barbed hose connectors. Ensure that the hos-
es have hose clips if applicable.
Lay the hoses in such a way that no condensate can flow into the
pump.
Ensure that the air can enter the ventilation slit (Fig. 2, 6) unhin-
dered.
Install a condensate separator (e.g. a VSW 1 in the suction line
before the intake spigot of the pump to protect against water
coming in.
If solvent vapours are sucked in, the emission condenser after the
pump helps to condense it, and prevents it being released into the
atmosphere.
