☞ Equipment must be connected only to a suitable fused and protected electrical

supply and a suitable earth point. Failure to connect the motor to ground may result in deadly electrical shock.

☞ The supply cable may be fitted with a moulded European IEC plug or a plug suitable for your local electrical supply. If the plug has been removed or has to be removed, the cable will contain wires colour coded as follows: green or green and yellow: earth; blue or white: neutral; brown or black: live.

Check that mains voltage and current conform with the equipment (see rating plate):

Pumps with dual-voltage motor (100-120 V / 200-230 V; 50/60 Hz):

☞ The equipment must be connected to a suitable fused and protected electrical

supply and a suitable earth point only, provide slow-blow fuse according to voltage supply (see ”Technical data”).

☞ Check that the voltage changeover switch is positioned correctly.

Attention: If the pump is switched on with the voltage not correctly selected, the motor may be damaged!

☞ If the equipment is brought from cold environment into a room for operation, allow the equipment to warm up (pay attention to water condensation on cold surfaces).

☞ Make sure ventilation is adequate if pump is installed in a housing or if ambient temperature is elevated.

Comply with all relevant safety requirements (regulations and guidelines) and adopt suitable safety measures.

☞ Provide a firm level platform for the equipment and check that the system to be evacuated is mechanically stable and that all fittings are secure.

Attention: Flexible elements tend to shrink when evacuated.

Due to the high compression ratio of the pumps, pressure at the outlet port might be generated being higher than the max. permitted pressure compatible with the mechanical stability of the system.

☞ Comply with maximum permitted pressures and pressure differences, see section ”Technical data”. Do not operate the pump with overpressure at the inlet.

Do not permit any uncontrolled pressurizing (e. g. make sure that the exhaust pipeline cannot become blocked). If you have an exhaust-isolation valve, make sure that you cannot operate the equipment with the valve closed. Risk of bursting!

☞ Ensure that the system design does not allow the exhaust pipeline to become blocked.

☞ Avoid overpressure of more than 0.2 bar in case inert gas is connected.

☞ The diameter of the inlet and outlet pipeline should be at the least as large as the diameter of the pump connection pipelines.

To the best of our knowledge the equipment is in compliance with the requirements of the applicable EC-directives and harmonized standards (see ”Declaration of conformity”) with regard to design, type and model, especially directive IEC 1010. This directive gives in detail conditions, under which the equipment can be operated safely (see also

IP degree of protection).

☞ Adopt suitable measures in case of differences, e. g. using the equipment outdoors, installation in altitudes of more than 1000 m above mean sea level, conductive pollution or dewiness.

Pay attention to symbol ”hot surfaces” on the equipment (according to IEC 1010 recommendation).

☞ Adopt suitable measures to prevent any danger arising from the formation of hot surfaces or electric sparks.

The pumps have no approval for operation in or for pumping of potentially explosive atmospheres.

If pumping different substances, purge the pump with inert gas prior to changing the pumped media in order to pump out residues and to avoid reactions of the pumped substances with each other with and the pump material. Ensure that the materials of the wetted parts are compatible with the pumped substances, see section ”Technical data”.

Take into consideration interactions and chemical reactions of the pumped media.

The pumps are not suitable for pumping substances which may form deposits inside the pump.

☞ If there is a danger of the formation of deposits in the pump chamber (check inlet and outlet of the pump) inspect the pump chamber regularly and clean if necessary.

The pumps are not suitable to pump unstable substances and substances which react explosively under impact (mechanical stress) and/or when being exposed to

elevated temperatures without air.

The pumps are not suitable to pump self inflammable substances, substances which are inflammable without air and explosive substances.

The pumps are not suitable for pumping dust and have no approval for operation below ground.

Ensure that the materials of the wetted parts are compatible with the pumped substances, see section ”Technical data”.

☞ Adopt suitable measures to prevent the release of dangerous, explosive, corrosive or polluting fluids.

☞ Use inert gas for gas ballast or venting if necessary.

☞ The user must take suitable precautions to prevent any formation of explosive mixtures in the expansion chamber or at the outlet. In case of a diaphragm crack, mechanically generated sparks, hot surfaces or static electricity may ignite these mixtures.

☞ Take adequate precautions to protect people from the effects of dangerous substances (chemicals, thermal decomposition products of fluoroelastomers), wear appropriate safety-clothing and safety glasses.

☞ Comply with applicable regulations when disposing of chemicals. Take into consideration that chemicals may be polluted.

Due to the residual leak rate of the equipment, there may be 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.

The motor is shut down by a thermal cutout in the winding.

☞ Attention: Manual reset is necessary. Switch off the pump or isolate the equipment from mains. Wait approx. five minutes before restarting the pump.

Attention: In case of supply voltage below 100V, the lock of the cutout might be restricted and the pump might restart on its own after sufficient cooling down. Take suitable precautions, if an automatic restart of the pump may lead to a critical dangerous situation.

☞ Avoid high heat supply (e. g. due to hot process gases).

☞ Ensure sufficient air admittance if pump is installed in a housing.

Ensure that in case of failure the pump and the vacuum system always will turn into a safe status.

☞ In case of diaphragm cracks or leaks in the manifold pumped substances mighty be released into the environment or into the pump housing. To reduce the risk of leaks, ask for a diaphragm pump with additional safety diaphragm.

☞ Comply especially with notes on operation and use and maintenance.

Use only genuine spare parts and accessories.

☞ Otherwise safety and performance of the equipment as well as the electromagnetic compatibility of the equipment might be reduced. Possibly the CE mark or the C/US conformity becomes void if not using genuine spare parts.

The A-weighed emission sound pressure level of the pump does not exceed 70 dB(A).

Measurement according to EN ISO 2151:2004 and EN ISO 3744:1995 with standard silencer or exhaust tube at outlet.

Ensure that maintenance is done only by suitably trained and supervised technicians.

Ensure that the maintenance technician is familiar with the safety procedures which relate to the product processed by the vacuum system and that the equipment, if necessary, is appropriately decontaminated before starting maintenance.

Comply with local and national safety regulations.

Wear parts have to be replaced regularly. In case of normal wear the lifetime of the diaphragms and valves is > 10000 operating hours. Bearings have a typical durability of 40000 h. Motor capacitors have a typical durability in the range of 10000 to 40000 h depending strongly on the operation conditions like ambient temperature, humidity or load.

☞ Check every capacitor regularly by measuring its capacity and estimating its operation time. Exchange old capacitors early enough to prevent a failure. If an overaged motor capacitor fails it might get hot and even melt and may cause a flame to form which could be dangerous for persons and equipment in the vicinity. The capacitors have to be replaced by an electrician.

Before starting maintenance vent the system, isolate the pump and other components from the vacuum system and the electrical supply, drain condensate and allow sufficient cooling of the pump.

Before starting maintenance, wait two minutes after isolating the equipment from mains to allow the capacitors to discharge.

In order to comply with law (occupational, health and safety regulations, safety at work law and regulations for environmental protection) vacuum pumps, components and measuring instruments returned to the manufacturer can be repaired only when certain procedures (see section ”Notes on return to the factory”) are followed.

Use and operation

Installing in a vacuum system:

☞ Avoid throttling losses by using connecting pipes with large diameter and keep them as short as possible.

☞ Reduce the transmission of vibration and prevent loading due to rigid pipelines.

Insert elastic hoses or flexible elements as couplings between the pump and rigid pipes.

☞ Use a suitable valve to isolate the pump from the vacuum system if you need to allow the pump to warm up before you pump condensable vapours or if you clean the pump before it is switched off.

☞ Connect the exhaust to a suitable treatment plant to prevent the discharge of dangerous gases and vapours to the surrounding atmosphere. Use a catchpot to prevent the drainage of contaminated condensate back into the pump.

Before switching on the pump check that mains voltage and current conform with the equipment!

Pump with dual-voltage motor:

Check that the voltage changeover switch at the terminal box is positioned correctly.

Attention: If the pump is switched on with the voltage not correctly selected,

the motor may be damaged! Pay attention to the warning label on the on/off switch (ME 2 only) and remove after having set the voltage changeover switch to the correct position!

Selecting the supply voltage:

Attention:

Before starting the pump, check that the voltage changeover switch at the terminal box is correctly positioned. Change the selection at the voltage changeover switch only if the pump is separated from mains.

Voltage changeover switch:

Use a screw driver to adjust the supply voltage on the voltage changeover switch at the terminal box of the pump:

”115” corresponds to 100-120V and

”230” corresponds to 200-230V.

During operation:

Max. ambient temperature: 40 °C

☞ Make sure ventilation is adequate if pump is installed in a housing or if ambient temperature is elevated.

☞ If pump is installed in altitudes of more than 1000 m above mean sea level check compatibility with applicable safety requirements, e. g. IEC 60034 (motor may overheat due to insufficient cooling).

The motor is shut down by a thermal cutout in the winding.

☞ Attention: Manual reset is necessary. Switch off the pump or isolate the equipment from mains. Wait approx. five minutes before restarting the pump.

Attention: In case of supply voltage below 100V, the lock of the cutout might be restricted and the pump might restart on its own after sufficient cooling down. Take suitable precautions, if an automatic restart of the pump may lead to a critical dangerous situation.

Due to the high compression ratio of the pumps, pressure at the outlet port might be generated being higher than the max. permitted pressure compatible with the mechanical stability of the system.

Do not start pump if pressure difference between inlet and outlet port exceeds

max. 1 bar. Attempts to start pump at higher difference may cause blockade and damage of the motor.

☞ Check compatibility with max. permitted pressure at outlet and max. pressure

difference between inlet and outlet ports.

Prevent internal condensation, transfer of liquids or dust. The diaphragm and valves will be damaged, if liquids are pumped in significant amounts.

A warm up period (approx. 15 min.) is required to ensure that the rated ultimate total pressure and pumping speed are attained.

Shutdown:

Has the pump been exposed to condensate?

☞ Allow the pump to continue to run at atmospheric pressure for a few minutes.

Has the pump been exposed to media which may damage the pump materials or form deposits?

☞ Check and clean pump heads if necessary.

Replacing diaphragms and valves

All bearings are encapsulated and are filled with long-life lubricant. Under normal operating conditions, the pump is maintenance free. The valves and the diaphragms as well as the motor capacitors are wear parts. If the rated ultimate vacuum is no longer achieved or in case of increased noise level, the pump interior, the diaphragms and the valves must be cleaned and the diaphragms and valves must be checked for cracks or other damage.

Depending on individual cases it may be efficient to check and clean the pump heads on a regular basis. In case of normal wear the lifetime of the diaphragms and valves is

> 10000 operating hours.

☞ Prevent internal condensation, transfer of liquids or dust. The diaphragm and valves will be damaged, if liquids are pumped in significant amount.

If the pump is exposed to corrosive gases or vapour or in case of deposits, maintenance should be carried out frequently.

☞ Regular maintenance will improve the lifetime of the pump and also protect both man and environment.

Before starting maintenance vent the system, isolate the pump and other components from the vacuum system and the electrical supply. Drain condensate if applicable, avoid the release of pollutants. Allow sufficient cooling of the pump. Ensure that the pump cannot be operated accidentally. Never operate the pump if covers or other parts of the pump are disassembled. Never operate a defective or damaged pump.

Ensure that the maintenance technician is familiar with the safety procedures which relate to the products processed by the pumping system.

The pump might be contaminated with the process chemicals that have been pumped during operation. Ensure that the pump is decontaminated before maintenance and take adequate precautions to protect people from the effects of dangerous substances if contamination has occurred.

☞ Wear appropriate safety-clothing when you come in contact with contaminated components.

Cleaning and inspecting the pump heads:

➨ Use open-ended wrench, remove the screw-in fittings together with the hose from all pump heads.

➨ To check the valves use hex key to remove four sockethead screws from pump head and remove housing cover with head cover, valves and O-ring (MD 4 / MV 2 only).

☞ Never remove parts by using a spiky or sharp-edged tool

(e.g. screw driver), we recommend to use a rubber mallet or compressed air (to be blown carefully into port).

➨ Remove head cover carefully from housing cover. Note position of valves and remove them.

☞ Replace valves if necessary.

☞ Use petroleum ether or industrial solvent to remove deposits. Do not inhale.

☞ Check diaphragm for damage and replace if necessary.

➨ To do so use Phillips screw driver to remove four countersunk head screws and lift off housing plate with rating plate.

☞ Use petroleum ether or industrial solvent to remove deposits if necessary. Do not inhale.

Notes regarding the assembling of the diaphragm

The set of seals is designated for diaphragm pumps with different technical performance.

Delivering pumps with square hole diaphragm starts in the second term of 2002, but not at the same time for all types of pumps. (Exception MZ 2D: Always diaphragm with round hole.)

Replacing a diaphragm with round hole, use the delivered diaphragm completely.

Replacing a diaphragm with square hole, remove the punched part in the centre of the diaphragm before assembling.

+

Replacing a diaphragm with round hole

➨ Use Phillips screw driver, remove countersunk head screw in the centre of the diaphragm clamping disc.

Note: Screw is secured by adhesive to prevent it from being detached. Clean screw or use new one (cat. no.: 639847).

☞ If the old diaphragm is difficult to separate from the support disc, immerse assembly in naphtha or petroleum ether. Do not inhale!

OmniFit ® and Loctite ® are registered trade marks of Henkel Technologies

➨ Check for washers. Do not mix the washers from the different heads. Make sure that the original number is reassembled at the individual pump head.

☞ Smaller number of washers: The pump will not attain ultimate vacuum. More washers: Clamping disc will hit head cover; noise or even blockade of the pump.

➨ Insert diaphragm support disc and new diaphragm.

Note: Double diaphragm.

➨ Insert diaphragm clamping disc, apply a drop of adhesive

(OmniFit ® 50M or Loctite ® 243) to lowerside of screw head and thread and screw diaphragm clamping disc, diaphragm and diaphragm support disc to connecting rod.

Replacing a diaphragm with square hole

➨ Use a face wrench to remove diaphragm support disc.

➨ Check for washers under clamping disc. Do not mix the washers from the different heads. Make sure that the original number is reassembled at the individual pump head.

☞ Smaller number of washers: The pump will not attain ultimate vacuum. More washers: Clamping disc will hit head cover; noise or even blockade of the pump.

➨ Position new diaphragm between diaphragm clamping disc with square head screw and diaphragm support disc.

Note: Double diaphragm.

Assembling pump heads:

Use the face wrench with torque indicator to assemble diaphragm clamping disc, diaphragm and diaphragm support disc (and eventually washers) to the connecting rod.

☞ Make sure that the square head screw of the diaphragm clamping disc is correctly seated in the guide hole of the diaphragm support disc.

Optimum torque for the diaphragm support disc: 6 Nm.

☞ The optimum torque is achieved if the pointer in the handle of the VACUUBRAND face wrench shows to the longer marking line.

➨ By turning eccentric bushing (front of connecting rod), bring connecting rod into a position in which diaphragm is in contact with housing and centred with respect to bore.

Reassemble in reverse order.

➨ Install head cover (with O-ring if applicable), valves and housing cover.

☞ Make sure that the valves are correctly seated: Valves at the outlet with round centred opening under valve, valves at the inlet with kidney-shaped opening beside valve.

➨ By turning eccentric bushing, bring connecting rod into upper turning point position (Max. stroke of the rod).

☞ Pay attention that the diaphragm stays positioned centrally so that it will become clamped uniformly between housing and head cover.

page 20 of 24 pumps type MZ 2D ensure that the head covers are not exchanged. Always assemble the housing cover with groove at the outlet side of the pump.

➨ Screw in four socket head screws fixing housing cover crosswise (e. g. in the sequence ➀, ➁, ➂, ➃) first slightly, then tighten.

☞ Do not tighten until head cover is in contact with housing, torque 12 Nm.

Individual performance check of a pump head :

By measuring the pressure at the inlet port of the individual head:

Use a suitable vacuum gauge (e. g. DVR 2, cat. no.: 68 29 02), make sure that it is correctly calibrated, and measure the pressure at the inlet port. A vacuum of less than 85 mbar should be indicated.

☞ If the reading is higher, recheck the pump chamber and make sure that the valves and the diaphragms are correctly seated

(diaphragms concentric with bore).

Assembling fittings:

➨ Use open-ended wrench to assemble fittings with connection hoses to all pump heads.

If the pump does not achieve the ultimate vacuum:

☞ In case the diaphragms and valves have been replaced, a run-in period of several hours is required before the pump achieves its ultimate vacuum.

If all pump heads achieve a vacuum below 85 mbar but pump does not achieve the ultimate total pressure:

Check hose connectors between pump heads and manifolds for leaks. If necessary recheck pump chamber.
