See also Section 2.6.
Check the TMS setpoint (default 62 °C). For
the correct setting refer to Section 4.3.4.
Check chamber temperature.
If the red LED at the water valve is on dis-
connnect and connect the connector. The
valve must make noises. If not contact Ley-

Contact Leybold service.
Possible Cause
Cooling water flow too low or cooling water
temperature too high.
Wrong TMS temperature setpoint.
Temperature at the high-vacuum connection
flange or at the isolation valve is much
higher than 85 °C.
Water valve malfunction.
Mechanical shocks, perhaps due to tool
maintenance.
Shock venting.
Converter failure.
Backing pressure too high during operation.
Parameters „Normal Operation“ are not set
correctly.
Mains interrupted or converter switched off
during operation of the pump.
