Safety information and instructions

The inspection, maintenance and service work prescribed in the introduction are to be carried out in a professional and timely manner. Necessary service work on the installation is not to be carried out except by personnel who are in possession of the required pertinent knowledge and/or professional expertise; otherwise the manufacturer's own specialists should be called in to perform the work.

The tasks should only be carried out by specialists who have in their possession the knowledge necessary for carrying out these tasks following completion of pertinent training and schooling measures.

Unit operating personnel is to be informed of the work that is planned before the beginning of the work and the responsible supervisor is to be appointed.

The servicing area is to be secured with a wide perimeter insofar as this is necessary.

If the unit installation is shut down for maintenance and servicing measures, then it is mandatory that measures be implemented to secure against unauthorized restarting, e.g. by locking the main or operating switch with personal safety padlocks. Do not fail to keep the key in your own possession.

Appropriate signs are to be mounted indicating that maintenance, servicing or cleaning measures are being carried out on the unit.

When dismantling individual parts and modules, do not fail to take care to ensure that no hazards can ensue for service personnel, e.g. from unexpected movements of valves, pumps, etc. If the possibility of this kind of hazard cannot be excluded, then appropriate preventative security measures are to be implemented, e.g. through the placement of blocks or support or by fastening equipment in place.

Individual parts and modules of the unit should not be dismantled unless it has been ensured that the personnel assigned these tasks have in their possession the necessary specialist knowledge required to carry out these tasks in an appropriately professional and safety-oriented manner. Specialists from the manufacturer's company should be called upon in case of uncertainty.

If the use of lifting equipment is required when replacing individual parts or modules, then it is mandatory that care be taken to ensure that the parts are secured safely with hitching equipment and that the load lifting equipment has the bearing capacity required.

Use only appropriate and properly functioning lifting equipment.

Never stand or work under suspended loads.

When carrying out assembly work above body height, use either the ladders and lifting stages provided for that purpose or other appropriate alternatives. Do not use any parts of the unit as footholds for climbing. Keep all grips, steps, railings, platforms, ladders, etc. free of dirt.

Cover or seal shut all openings into which cleaning agents are not allowed to penetrate because of safety and/or functional considerations before cleaning the unit with high-pressure cleaners or other cleaning agents. This applies in particular for electromotors, switching devices, distributor boxes and control cabinets.

Remove all covers/seals again after cleaning has been completed.

Do not fail to take care to ensure that all pumps are shut off before working on pipe and/or hose tubing lines and fittings that carry or contain fluids or vapors. The pipe and/or hose tubing lines must be completely cooled down and depressurized. The associated shut-off valves leading into and away from the the affected pipeline sections and fittings must be closed and secured against unintended opening. The pumping medium itself is to be drained off if possible.

After cleaning, check all pipe and hose tubing lines and fittings for leakage, loose connections, abrasion or other damage. Eliminate any deficiencies found without delay.

During maintenance and servicing work, always tighten any screw connections that have become loose!

If it is necessary to dismantle any safety devices during maintenance, cleaning or servicing measures, then these devices are to be reinstalled and inspected immediately following completion of the maintenance, cleaning or servicing measures.

FAM 15/30/50/70 Maintenance of Water Filter Combination (optional)

Checking / setting the downstream pressure

Downstream pressure is the term used for the pressure after the filter combination.

Reduce the pressure to prevent strong turbulence in the vacuum pump tank when the operating pressure is high.

The downstream pressure at the filter combination is set ex-works to 5 bar.

To adjust the downstream pressure, proceed as follows:

1. Close the locking feature [1].

2. Relieve the pressure in the pipe between the locking features [1] and [2], e.g. by tapping the water. For example using water spigots.

3. Loosen the flat-blade screw [4]. Do not screw out completely!

4. Depressurize the nominal value spring by turning the adjustment grip to the left (-).

5. Close the locking feature [2].

6. Slowly open the locking feature [1].

7. Set the nominal value of 5 bar (downstream pressure) by rotating the adjustment grip. Turning the the right (+) increases the nominal value, turning to the left (-) decreases the nominal value. (Read the value on the manometer) If the downstream pressure is set to a lower value, then the output side must be relieved of pressure in order for the desired downstream pressure to adjust.

8. Tighten the flat-blade screw firmly [4].

9. Slowly open the locking feature [2].

Changing oil and oil filter

The first oil change must take place after 100 operating hours. Later oil changes after ≈ 3000 hours or every six months.

The vacuum pump must be at operating state temperature when the oil is changed:

Put the FAM into operation for 10 minutes.

Switch off the FAM at the main switch.

Wait until the pressure in the vacuum column has reached atmospheric pressure (≈ 1000 mbar abs).

To perform these tasks, you will need the following tools and equipment:

Compressor oil VE101 (for part-no., see replacement parts list)

Maintenance set, comprising oil filter, air deoiling element, ventilation cover seal (for part-no., see replacement parts list).

Fork wrenches SW 27 / SW 32

To change the oil, proceed as follows:

1. Put a suitable container in place to catch the used oil.

2. Open the screw plug (4) and allow the used oil to drain into the container. Dispose of the used oil properly.

3. Close the screw plug when the flow of oil diminishes. Let the pump run again briefly for a few seconds,

4. Open the plug screw once again and drain off the remaining oil.

5. Screw in the plug screw and tighten it firmly.

6. Remove the oil filter (11) and dispose of it properly.

7. Install the new oil filter (11).

8. Fill in new oil through the oil filling screw plug (5) until the MAX marking (3) has been reached.

FAM 15/30/50/70 Rotary Vane Vacuum Pump

Replacing the Air De-oiling Element

Oil mist or increased electricity consumption by the drive engine (response of the engine protection switch) are signs of a soiled air de-oiling element.

To replace the air de-oiling element, proceed as follows:

1. Remove the 4 attachment screws of the ventilation cover (10).

2. Undo the leaf spring safety screw (15).

3. Remove the leaf spring (15).

4. Remove the air de-oiling element (9) and replace it with a new element.

5. Replace the ventilation cover seal (10).

6. The suction strainer is re-mounted in reverse order.

The air de-oiling element becomes saturated with oil during operation. A slight lowering of the oil filling level after the air de-oiling element has been replaced is therefore quite normal.
