! CAUTION
This vacuum pump should not be operated in temperatures below 32°F or above the
limits outlined in the technical data section.
Do not locate the unit where the hot exhaust air from other vacuum pumps or heat generating equipment may be
drawn into the unit. Never restrict the flow of exhaust air from the fluid cooler. The heated exhaust air must be
exhausted to the outside to prevent high ambient conditions in the room. Exhaust piping should be installed in such
a manner as to not create additional backpressure on the vacuum pump. Also, the exhaust piping should be installed
with a drip leg to prevent condensate from falling back into the fluid receiver. If the room is not properly ventilated,
the vacuum pump operating temperatures will increase and cause the high temperature probe to shut the unit off.
! CAUTION
Clean, fresh air, insufficient quantity, is required for proper vacuum pump
operation.
! WARNING
Never locate the vacuum pump inlet system where it can ingest toxic, volatile or
corrosive vapors, air temperatures exceeding 110°F, water, or extremely dirty air.
Taking in any of the above could jeopardize the performance of the equipment or
pose a health hazard to all personnel exposed to the total compressed air system.
In high humidity areas, avoid placing the vacuum pump in a basement or other damp locations. Control the vacuum
pump temperatures and monitor vacuum pump fluid for signs of water contamination. Fluid and filter changes may
need to be increased in high humidity areas. Increased operating temperatures may be required.
