SECTION 2: INSTALLATION
2.10 INTRODUCTION
2.11 The pumps are available for 115 VAC or 230 VAC
applications and are intended for either industrial or
commercial use.
2.21 This manual has been compiled not only for the care and
maintenance of the Cole-Parmer Vacuum/Pressure Pump
now in your possession, but as a helpful reference and
guide to prevent many problems which may occur if used
improperly.
2.20 UNPACKING
2.21 Carefully remove the Vacuum/Pressure Pump from the
shipping case. Preserve all paperwork for future reference.
If damage has occurred from shipment a claim must be
filed with the carrier immediately; preserve the shipping
carton for inspection by the carrier. If you are required to
communicate with your dealer or Cole-Parmer, be sure to
include your order numbers for quick identification. Do not
return the pump to the factory without first calling for a
returned goods number.
2.30 PUMP MOUNTING
2.31 Rubber feet are attached to the pump. Rubber feet are
excellent for applications involving a semi-exible surface
such as a bench top; they help to isolate noise and
eliminate creeping. The Vacuum/Pressure Pump should be
placed on a horizontal plane which the rubber feet contact
with.
2.40 PUMP LOCATION
2.41 The Vacuum/Pressure Pump should be located preferably
in a clean, dry, and well ventilated area. Please be sure
not to block the ventilation holes located on the motor
housing. The system should be placed where the
9
housing. The system should be placed where the
surrounding temperature remains between 10°C and 40°C
(50°F and 104°F). Always check to insure the location
chosen is protected from direct or indirect moisture contact.
Cole-Parmer recommends that the pump be installed at
the highest point within the system to prevent possible
water condensate from entering the pump.The pump
should be located as closely to its system in order to
utilize it most efficiently.
WARNING
The motor is thermally protected and will
automatically restart unexpectedly when the
overload device resets. Don’t pump ammable or
explosive gases or vapors or operate this pump in
an atmosphere containing ammable or explosive
gases or vapors.
2.50 ELECTRICAL POWER
2.51 Power Source Review
Review the power source and the motor rating to be sure
they agree in voltage, phase, and frequency. Serious
damage may occur to the motor if it is connected to an
improper voltage.
Please Note: For Model 79202-00 and 79202-30, the
pumps have a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way.
10
2.52
2.53
Please Note: For Model 79202-05 and 79202-35, the
pumps are connected with a power cable with IEC plug for
for connection of the mains lead. The pumps are supplied
with two mains leads fitted. One lead has a U.K. 3 pin plug
and the other has a 2-pin “Shuko” plug for connection to
the mains. Choose the lead appropriate for your electrical
installation and discard the other. The U.K. mains lead is
protected by a 10A fuse mounted in the plug top.
Servicing of Double-Insulated Product
In a double-insulated product, two systems of insulation
are provided instead of grounding. No grounding means is
provided on a double-insulated product, nor should a
means for grounding to be added to the product. Servicing
of a double-insulated product requires extreme care and
knowledge of the system and should be done only by
qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for the
double-insulated product must be identical to those parts
in the product.
Overload Protection
This pump has a self resetting thermal protector. If the
motor should overheat, the protector will shut the unit off. If
this should occur, check the pump to ensure that
everything is normal. Unplug device and allow to cool for
10 minutes. Plug in and restart. If the overload trips again,
return the complete unit to your dealer for repair.
2.60 VACUUM CONNECTIONS
2.61 For best results, Cole-Parmer recommends the length of
the tubing between the pump and the chamber be kept as
small as possible.
11
2.70 INTAKE AND DISCHARGE PROVISION
2.71 For the Vacuum/Pressure Pump Station Models 79202-30
& 79202-35, the vacuum regulator and vacuum dial gauge
is attached to the bracket. The vacuum regulator allows the
vacuum level to be set between roughly atmospheric
pressure and the maximum vacuum allowed for the pump
model. The regulator allows discharge pressure to be set
between atmospheric and the maximum possible for the
pump model. Model 79202 is equipped with a pressure
port.
Note: Adjusting the vacuum regulators will affect the
performance of the pump.

2.80 VACUUM GAUGES
2.81 The Vacuum/Pressure Pump Station Models 79202-30 &
79202-35 come with dial vacuum gauges. The vacuum
gauge gives negative pressure - That is pressure below
atmospheric. The reference point for the gauge is
atmospheric pressure. Please keep in mind that
atmospheric pressure tends to vary from day to day. As a
result of this variability, the dial vacuum gauge will indicate
slightly different maximum vacuum readings from day to
day.

SECTION 3: OPERATION
3.10 STARTING PROCEDURES
3.11 Starting a Cole-Parmer Vacuum/Pressure Pump Station
Before attaching the pump to a system, familiarize yourself
with the function and action of the Vacuum/Pressure Pump
Station that you have acquired. Review the power
requirements as described in Section 2.50. Cole-Parmer
recommends running the pump for a few minutes to warm
it up, before use. The warm-up improves the pumps ability
to handle humid air. Set the device on a level, sturdy
surface so the controls can be easily reached and adjusted.
1. Be sure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
Plug in the device and turn the switch to the ON
position.
2. Block the intake hose barb and allow the gauge to
reach stable vacuum level. (For 79202-30 & 79202-35)
3. Set vacuum level by turning the regulator knob counterclockwise to increase vacuum or clockwise to decrease
vacuum. (For 79202-30 & 79202-35)
Note: This procedure should be performed each time you
use this device.
3.12
Cleaning The Device
1. Make sure the ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position.
2. Unplug the device from the wall outlet and allow suction
level to drop.
3. Wipe the outside of the case with a clean, damp cloth
after each use.
13
3.20 LEAK DETECTION
3.21 The importance of eliminating all leaks in a vacuum system
is obvious. The pump must remove this added volume of
leaked gas to maintain the desired vacuum. Leaks for
these pumps can be located by slightly pressuring the
system and painting the suspected area with a thick soap
solution. Escaping air will produce soap bubbles.
3.30 OPERATING PRESSURE RANGE
3.31 The Vacuum/Pressure Pump are designed to be run from
slightly below atmospheric to their maximum vacuum level
on the intake side. The pumps also may be run from
atmospheric to their maximum rated pressure rating.
Consult the Specification Table for the ratings of your
specific model (See Section 6, Specifications).
3.40 SHUTDOWN PROCEDURES
3.41 After use, Cole-Parmer recommends the pump be run for
about 2 minutes disconnected from the vacuum process.
The air pumped through the mechanism will purge out
water vapor or droplets of water condensate that may have
formed on the inside of the pump. This purge of the pump
mechanism helps prevent corrosion. For turning of pump,
turn the switch to the OFF position.

SECTION 4: MAINTENANCE
4.10 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
4.11 Maintaining a Cole-Parmer Vacuum/Pressure Pump
These units are 100% oil-free. The pump employs a nonlube piston and cylinder. No maintenance is necessary for
the bearings. All bearings are sealed and permanently
lubricated. Lubrication should not be attempted. The units
are built for continuous duty operation with the quietness
and durability of a diaphragm, but with piston performance
The Pump has a service free life-time of 2,000 to 3,000
hours. The Pump is not field serviceable.
4.12 Storage
When the pump is not in use, store in a clean, dry
area. Wipe the power cord down with a dry towel and
inspect for cracks in the insulation after each use.
Have the cord repaired, if found defective, prior to
reusing.
SECTION 5: TROUBLESHOOTING
5.10 VACUUM PROBLEMS
5.11 Leakage, contamination, and unusual outgassing are the
general causes of problems associated with poor vacuum.
To operate at maximum efficiency, a system must be
thoroughly clean. If the system is completely clean and
free from leaks and unwarranted vacuum problems still
exist, the Air Admiral should be checked. A simple
criterion for the condition of the pump is the determination
of its maximum vacuum capability. This can be
accomplished by blocking of the intake and reading the
vacuum level on the gauge.
15
5.20 PRESSURE PROBLEMS
5.21 Leakage and contamination are the general causes of
problems associated with poor pressure. To operate at
maximum efficiency a system must be thoroughly clean. If
the system is completely clean and free from leaks and
unwarranted pressure problems still exist, the Pump
should be checked by a service technician.
