2 Transport and Storing
Remove the equipment from the transportation box and keep the packaging.
Make sure that the product has not been damaged during transportation. If
this unit is damaged contact your carrier and inform Leybold if necessary. For
storage of the product, use the packaging pro vided.
The pump system must only be detached from the vacuum chamber and
moved, provided the pump has been allowed to run down completely and is
at a full standstill.
When carrying or lifting the pump system take hold of it only at its base panel
or transport it at the crane eye. Pump systems on castors may also be rolled
on level and smooth surfaces. After having moved the pump system, lock the
front castors.
The pump system may be tilted by 10° maximum.
When lifting and setting down the pump system do not reach under it;
hands and feet could be pinched. Do not stand under the suspended
pump system while it is being moved.
Do not use the piping or other components to lift or move the pump sys-
tem.
Do not remove the covers and blanking flanges until you are ready to make
the connections, to ensure that the turbomolecular pump is installed under
the cleanest possible conditions.
Store the system only after it has been vented with dry air or nitrogen. Place
dry cartridges into the flanges and seal the system. Store it at a dry place at
-20 to 60 °C and at 95 % max. air humidity, non-condensing.
