Manual-no.: 999188 / 19/05/2009☞ Select function ”Pump down”.☞ Set ”Minimum” to prevent volatile components to evaporate. The process is stopped automatically assoon as ”Minimum” is reached.☞ Start process by pressing key ”START/STOP”.alternatively:☞ Select function ”Vac control” to dry at a predetermined vacuum level.☞ Set ”Set vacuum” to the evaporation vacuum of the solvent. Adapt ”Hysteresis” if necessary.☞ Set a process time (”Duration”) if necessary.☞ Start process by pressing key ”START/STOP”.Examples for useAssembly of a vacuum system☞ Assemble vacuum connection lines between controller, vacuum pump (diaphragm pump with isola-tion valve or Vacuum-Management-System) and apparatus.☞ Assemble electrical connections.☞ Connect coolant if necessary.Vacuum for filtration and suction☞ Select function ”Pump down”.☞ Set ”Minimum” to a value which does not lead to evaporation of the solvent.☞ Start process by pressing key ”START/STOP”.alternatively:☞ Select function ”Vac control”.☞ Set ”Set vacuum” (and ”Hysteresis” ,if necessary) so that no evaporation of the solvent occurs.☞ Set ”Maximum” to switch off the pump at the end of the process or in case of a filter cake crack (pres-sure increase).☞ Start process by pressing key ”START/STOP”.☞ Tip for filtration: Adjust preset pressure to a value well above the boiling pressure of the solvent(e.g. water >>20 mbar). Set the maximum pressure to e.g. 500 mbar. Once the filtration has finished,the pressure increases and the pump is switched off automatically.Vacuum for gel dryer, drying chambers and vacuum concentrators
