Replacing the operating fluid reservoir
The operating fluid reservoir supplies the turbo molecular pump with lubricant. It consists
of a plastic container with a soaked liner and 8 soaked sticks (Porex rods). Plastic container
and Porex rods are below the turbo molecular pump and accessible from the bottom of
the Ecotec E3000.
The bore for the operating fluid reservoir is closed with an aluminum plug and a plastic
screw.
The operating fluid reservoir has a limited service life and storage period; see the
maintenance schedule.
1 Remove the sniffer line and the ECO-Check from the main unit.
2 Place the main unit with the front panel on a soft surface.
3 Unscrew the plastic screw with a 19 mm box wrench.
