3 Installation
Instructions for the operating personnel
Before any kind of assembly work the personnel must be informed about
potential hazards. Observe Safety Information 0.1 to 0.6.
3.1 Placement
The TRIVAC
®
T pump can be set up on a flat, horizontal surface. Rubber feet
under the coupling housing ensure that the pump cannot slip.
If you wish firmly install the pump in place, insert bolts through bore holes in
the rubber feet.
Risk of toppling
Max. tilt for the pump is 10° from the vertical.
If you wish firmly install the pump in place, insert bolts through bore holes
(Ø9mm) in the rubber feet.
The rubber feet act as vibration absorbers. They must therefore not be-
come pressed by screws.
The site chosen should allow adequate air circulation to cool the pump
(keep front and rear unobstructed). See Fig.5, Dimensional drawing for
TRIVAC
®
T
The oil-level glass must be visible.
Note the ambient conditions during operation
The ambient temperature should not exceed +45 °C (113 °F) and not
drop below +12 °C (55 °F) (see Section 4.3.3).
For installation sites over 1000 m above sea level and/or a relative atmos-
pheric humidity of over 90%, you must discuss this with Technical support
or Sales.
The max. amount of heat given off approximately corresponds to the rat-
ed motor power.
Install the pump such that only minimal quantities of dust can deposit
themselves on the surfaces. In those cases where dust deposits form,
measures need to be introduced which ensure that these are removed on
a regular basis.
The maximum gas inlet temperature must not exceed 60 °C.
The maximum pressure at the inlet must not exceed atmospheric pres-
sure (approximately 1013 mbar). Never apply overpressures to the
pump’s inlet.
The maximum exhaust pressure must not exceed 0.5 bar (overpressure).
