Setting Up Your Freeze Dryer
After you verify receipt of the proper components, move your freeze dryer to
the location where you want to install it. Then, follow the steps listed below.
Vacuum Pump Connection
A vacuum pump as described in Chapter 2: Prerequisites is required to
operate your freeze dry system properly. The freeze dryer is equipped with a
3/4" ID, heavy wall, vacuum hose for connecting the collector chamber to the
vacuum pump.
Place the vacuum pump near the benchtop freeze dryer models. For console
models, from the back of the unit, place the vacuum pump on the floor of the
cabinet.
Connect the vacuum pump power cord to the receptacle on the back of the
cabinet labeled “vacuum pump.” If the vacuum pump has an off/on switch,
turn the switch on. The vacuum pump will be controlled by the freeze dryer.
Connect the vacuum pump inlet port to the vacuum tube on the back of the
cabinet with the vacuum hose and clamps provided. If necessary, cut the
hose to proper length to allow for gentle bends without kinks.
Models rated for use on 230V have a reverse IEC connector for attaching the
vacuum pump power cord. A plug is supplied that can be installed on the
vacuum pump power cord if necessary. Make certain that the oil in the
vacuum pump is at the proper level.
