Avoid high heat supply (e.g., due to hot process gases).
Position device and vacuum connection lines so that no condensate can flow to-
wards the pressure transducer.
Allow the equipment to equilibrate to ambient temperature if you bring it from cold
environment into a room prior to operation. Notice if there is water condensation on
cold surfaces.
Comply with all applicable and relevant safety requirements (regulations and guide-
lines). Implement the required actions and adopt suitable safety measures.
Ambient conditions
Ensure that installation is in compliance with the degree of protection, see “Technical
data“.
Operating conditions
➨ This device is not approved for operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Do not operate the device in potentially explosive atmospheres.
➨ Devices without the ”
`
” mark on the rating plate are not approved for op-
eration with dangerous or explosive gases or with potentially explosive or
inflammable substances. Do not operate the device with dangerous or ex-
plosive gases or with potentially explosive or inflammable substances.
➨ Devices bearing the ”
`
” mark on their rating plates are approved for op-
eration with potentially explosive atmospheres according to their classifica-
tion II 3G IIC T3 X according to ATEX, but they are not approved for operation
in potentially explosive atmospheres (see section ”
`
Important information:
Equipment marking (ATEX)”) .
• Ensure that the materials of the equipment’s wetted parts are compatible with the
substances in the vacuum system, see section ”Technical data”.
Safety during operation
➨ Adopt suitable measures to prevent the release of dangerous, toxic, explosive,
corrosive, noxious or polluting fluids, vapours and gases.
☞ Prevent any part of the human body from coming in contact with the vacuum.
VSK 3000:
☞
Attention: At pressures above 1060 mbar the pressure transducer is saturated,
the pressure measurement becomes erroneous. Release pressure immediate-
ly. Risk of bursting!
Maximum permitted pressure: 1.5 bar (absolute).
VSP 3000:
☞
Attention: Maximum pressure output: 1*10 3 mbar. Pressure values above 1000
mbar can not be read out! Danger of unnoticed overpressure! Risk of bursting!
Maximum permitted pressure: 1.5 bar (absolute).
