12. TROUBLESHOOTING
12.1. Vacuum unit
Problem: The vacuum pump does not start.
CAUSE SOLUTION
The pump motor is not receiving
voltage.
Check the connection of the on/off switch located upon
the motor of the pump.
Check the electrical connection terminals of the pump.
Check the corresponding circuit-breaker.
Check that the environmental temperature is not too
high (<35ºC), this might have caused the circuit
breakage.
The pump's starter protector is blocked
because the condenser does not reach
the correct temperature. Minimum
temperature to switch on the pump:
LQ-55 <-30ºC / LQ-85 <-40ºC
LQ Arctic-85 <-40ºC
Check the temperature of the condenser.
Pump wheel is seized up. The motor
axle does not turn.

Problem: Abnormal heating of the pump.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Lack of ventilation or environmental
temperature too high (>35ºC).
Place the pump in an area with better ventilation.
Problem: Mist leak from the emission channel.
CAUSE SOLUTION
Gas-Ballast is opened too much. Close the Gas-Ballast.
There is a leak. Locate the leak.
