    What to do if the power consumption of LEYBOLD Water Pump motor is too high?
    • K
      Kyle AguirreAug 19, 2025
      If the power consumption of your LEYBOLD Water Pump motor is too high, it might be related to the same issues that cause the pump to overheat. Also, ensure that the motor is connected to the correct voltage supply. If the motor is malfunctioning, consider repairing or replacing it. If the oil is too thick, try exchanging the oil or warming up the oil and the pump.

      Megan JohnsonAug 22, 2025
      If your LEYBOLD Water Pump is losing oil, start by checking for visible oil leaks. If the oil-drain plug is not tight, drain the lubricant, firmly screw in the oil-drain plug with a new gasket, and refill with the correct quantity. If there is no visible oil leak, see fault "Oil in the pumping chamber".

    Why LEYBOLD RUVAC RA Water Pump is too loud?
    • D
      David BoyerAug 29, 2025
      If your LEYBOLD Water Pump is too loud, the clearance between the casing and impellers might be too small due to contamination or distortion of the pump. Cleaning the pumping chamber may resolve this. If the bearing or gearing is damaged, install and connect the pump without strains. If impellers strike the casing or the rotor runs out of true, contact Leybold Service and switch off the pump immediately.

      If the pumping speed of your LEYBOLD Water Pump is too low, begin by checking the dirt trap in the intake flange and clean it if it's clogged. Ensure the motor is connected correctly. If the pump or pump system has a leak, find and seal it. Also, use intake and discharge lines of sufficient diameter, if the flow resistance in the intake or discharge line is too high.

    Why does the oil in my LEYBOLD RUVAC RA Water Pump turn dark?
    • W
      William CooperSep 4, 2025
      If the oil in your LEYBOLD Water Pump turns dark, it could be because the oil has broken down, in that case you should change the oil. It could also be due to the pump getting too hot; refer to the troubleshooting steps for "Pump gets too hot" and change the oil after resolving the overheating issue.

    What causes oil in the pumping chamber of LEYBOLD RUVAC RA?
    • S
      Samantha KelleySep 7, 2025
      If you find oil in the pumping chamber of your LEYBOLD Water Pump, it could be due to several reasons. If the oil level is too high, drain the lubricant to reach the correct level. Check the system for oil leaks. Ensure the pump is installed on a flat, horizontal surface. Check the oil-fill and oil-drain plugs for proper fit and replace gaskets if necessary. If the pump has an internal leak, replace the O-ring of the gearbox cover.

    Why does my LEYBOLD Water Pump get too hot?

      Maria TaylorNov 14, 2025
      If the LEYBOLD Water Pump gets too hot, it might be due to several reasons. The ambient temperature could be too high, or the cooling air supply might be restricted, so ensure adequate ventilation or relocate the pump. Check the pressure values of the vacuum system, as the pump may be working in the wrong pressure range or the pressure differential may be too great. Also, examine the vacuum system for high gas temperatures. Contamination or pump distortion can reduce the clearance between the casing and impellers; in this case, clean the pumping chamber. Excessive frictional resistance from contaminated bearings or oil may be the cause, so install and connect the pump without strains. Finally, verify that the oil level is correct and that the correct lubricant is used. If the oil level is ...
