+
Connect a gas-tight exhaust line at the pump
outlet (see above) if necessary. Always vent
exhaust gases appropriately (e.g., into a
fume hood).
+
Never block the gas outlet. The exhaust
line must always be free of obstructions (no
back pressure) to ensure an unimpeded
discharge of gas. The cross-section of the
outlet tubing must be at least the size of the
pump’s exhaust connection.
• Reduce the transmission of vibration. Prevent mechan-
ical load due to rigid pipelines. Insert elastic hoses or
flexible elements as couplings between the pump and
rigid pipes.
The VSK 3000 is equipped with a capacitive
pressure transducer with ceramic diaphragm.
It measures the actual pressure independently
of the gas type, and with reference to the vac-
uum, i.e., absolute.
Secure hose connections at the pump ap-
propriately, e.g., with hose clamps, to protect
against accidental detachment.

Always install outlet tubing descending from
the pump or provide other measures to avoid
backflow of condensate towards the pump.
