4. Inspection And Maintenance
4.1 Inspection
- Periodically check (it is recommended to check once a day) the controller or the remote
operation output to see if any alarming signal is output.
Also check the log data to see if any alarming data is reported.
If alarming signal is displayed, take steps according to the TROBLE SHOOTING.
- When the pump is contaminated, wipe out it with a dry rag.
4.2 Maintenance
- These LR/HR products are maintenance free except when to connect with the host equipment,
or disconnect from it, and to regulate N2 gas flow at the time of operation. Overhaul or repair
work is performed at ULVAC. When any trouble occurs, please contact with your local ULVAC
service center (please refer to the ULVAC address list at the end of this manual).
< Maintenance period >
It is recommended to overhaul the pump once a year.
The bearing on the vacuum side uses grease for lubrication. Replace the bearing once a year,
as rule, though the frequency changes with use and application of the pump. It is important to
maintain the performance (safety is included) and keep the programmed production. (However,
the exchange period is different depending on use conditions)
