1. If an in ert gas supply is connected to the gas ballast ensure that its inlet pipeline is not contaminated e Check oil level of the rotary vane pump through sight glass every time before starting the pump the equipment During operation the surface temperature of the pumps may exceed 176 F 80 C Make sure not to touch the pumps accidentally Hot parts may cause burns if touched Adopt suitable measures to prevent any danger arising from hot sur faces or electric sparks Ensure that hot surfaces of the pump do not cause burns Provide a suitable con tact guard if necessary e Pay attention to the safety symbol hot surfaces on e A power failure may cause accidental ventilation of the pump or the vacuum system if the manual gas ballast valve RE 2 5 RZ2 5 RE6 RZ6 REQ RZ 9Q is open If this constitutes a potential source of danger take appropriate safety measures e g install a sole noid operated gas ballast valve NOTICE Prevent the backpressure of gases and the backflow of condensates at the outlet Provide appropriate protective measures to allow for the possibility of failure and malfunction The protective mea sures must also allow for the requirements of the respec tive application Single phase motors are protected by a self hold ther mal cutout in the winding Three phase motors are protected by a circuit breaker isolating all poles in case of overload page 15 of 49 Note Only manual rese2. Make sure that the exhaust tubing cannot become blocked Comply with applicable regulations when disposing of chemicals Take into consideration that chemicals may be contaminated Take adequate precautions to pro tect people from the effects of dangerous substances chemicals oil mist thermal decomposition products of fluoroelastomers Use appropriate protective cloth ing and safety goggles GG Failure of the pump teg due to power interruption failure of connected components or of parts of the sup ply or a change of parameters must not be allowed to lead to a dangerous situation under any circumstanc es In case of a leak in the manifold or at the shaft seal pumped substances might be released into the environment or into the pump housing or motor Especially comply with notes on use and operation and maintenance GG The residual leak rate of the equipment might render possible an exchange of gas albeit extremely slight between the environment and the vacuum system Adopt suitable measures to prevent contamination of the pumped substances or the environment CAUTION e Ensure that no parts of your clothing hair or fingers can be caught or drawn in at the inlet of the pump Never insert fingers or drop any other object into the page 14 of 49 inlet or outlet e Pumping at high inlet pressure may lead to overpres sure at the gas ballast valve Pumped gases or con densate might be expelled if the valve is open
