Mechanical connections
The pump can be mounted on a frame using the 4 attachment holes on the base and
the special shock mounts (refer to accessories page 14).
Note: Special shock mounts, effective against the pump's own vibrations, can also be
used but they do not ensure correct attachment during the transfer of equipment. In
this case, the pump should be clamped onto its support (see page 13).
Mounting on a frame
Ventilation
For a given application, pump performance, vacuum characteristics,
temperature and reliability depend on the following:
• assembly conditions (accessory, filter...) and mechanical connections,
• used oil,
• maintenance frequency and quality.
For the assembly of the vacuum circuit, provide the accessories required for
maintenance: isolation valves, purges, etc.
For safety reasons, use accessories on the inlet and exhaust lines whose
materials and sealing properties are compatible with the gases being used.
Several fitting accessories are available in the adixen products’ catalog.
The pump and the motor are each equipped with a ventilation system.
During pump installation, the pump should be placed in ventilated place. Provide a
minimum gap of 25 mm around the pump.
The vents on the pump and the motor should be checked regularly to ensure
that they are not blocked.
adixen pumps are designed for operation at an ambient temperature between 53°F
and 113°F (12 and 45°C) (with A120 oil).
Inlet and
exhaust fitting
Do not expose any part of the human body to vacuum.
The product is supplied with the inlet and exhaust sealed. Remove these
blanking plates when you are ready to connect the product on your
vacuum system.
As well as, don’t operate the product unless the inlet and exhaust are
connected to a vacuum and exhaust pumping line.
At inlet:
Make sure that the parts or chambers connected to the inlet of our
pumps products withstand a negative pressure of 1 bar in relation to the
atmospheric pressure.
The inlet pressure must be no higher than atmospheric pressure.
Too high pressure can damage the product.
