Product description
Use
The vacuum pump is intended for
The vacuum pump is ultimate pressure proof.
Principle of operation
The vacuum pump works on the rotating vane principle. A circular rotor (o,15) is positioned centrically on the shaft of the vacuum pump. The shaft of the vacuum pump is driven by the drive motor shaft by means of a flexible coupling. The rotor (o, 15) rotates in an also circular, fixed cylinder(1), the centreline of which is offset from the centreline of the rotor such that the rotor and the inner wall of the cylinder almost touch along a line. Vanes (n,22), sliding in slots in the rotor, separate the space between the rotor and the cylinder into chambers. At any time gas is sucked in and at almost any time ejected. Therefore the vacuum pump works almost pulsation free. In order to avoid the suction of solids, the vacuum pump is equipped with a mesh screen (h,261) in the suction connection. In order to avoid reverse rotation after switching off, the vacuum pump is equipped with a non-return valve (251-254, 258). NOTE: This valve shall not be used as a non-return valve or shut-off valve to the vacuum system and is no reliable means to prevent suction of oil into the vacuum system while the vacuum pump is shut down. In case the vacuum pump is equipped with a gas ballast (optional):
of
the suction
air and other dry, non-aggressive, non-toxic and non-explosive gases.
Conveying media with a higher density than air leads to an increased thermal and mechanical load on the vacuum pump and is permissible only after prior consultation with Busch. Max. allowed temperature of the inlet gas: See Oil, Ambient temperature range In case the vacuum pump is equipped with a gas ballast (optional), water vapour within the gas flow can be tolerated within certain limits (see Installation and Commissioning, Operating Notes, Conveying Condensable Vapours). The conveyance of other vapours shall be agreed upon with Busch. The vacuum pump is intended for the placement in a non-potentially explosive environment. The vacuum pump is thermally suitable for continuous operation.
Product description Page 3
Through the gas ballast valve (440) a small amount of ambient air is sucked into the pump chamber and compressed together with the process gas. This counteracts the accumulation of condensates from the process gas inside the vacuum pump (see also Operation Notes). Gas ballast version with ball valve: The gas ballast line can be closed partially or completely by means of a ball valve (477). In order to improve the operating characteristics the outlet of the pump chamber is equipped with a spring loaded valve (g,159).
To suck condensable vapours, a gas ballast valve (optional) can be installed in the cylinder cover at fan side. To increase the capacity of vapours, another gas ballast valve can be installed in the cylinder cover at the motor side. The valve can open or close the gas ballast during the operation of the pump. In order to ensure the best ultimate pressure during the process, a solenoid valve (optional) can be installed before the gas ballast valve. The solenoid valve can be used as a purge at the end of the process.
On/Off switch
The vacuum pump comes without on/off switch. The control of the vacuum pump is to be provided in the course of installation
Oil Circulation
The vacuum pump requires oil to seal the gaps, to lubricate the vanes(n,22) and to carry away compression heat. The oil reservoir is located on the pressure side of the vacuum pump (i.e. high pressure) at the bottom of the bottom chamber of the oil separator (f,75). The feed openings are located on the suction side of the vacuum pump (i.e. low pressure). Forced by the pressure difference between pressure side and suction side oil is being drawn from the oil separator (f,75) through the oil supply lines and injected on the suction side. Together with the sucked gas the injected oil gets conveyed through the vacuum pump and ejected into the oil mist separator (f,75). Oil that separates before the exhaust filter accumulates at the bottom of the bottom chamber of the oil separator (f,75). Oil that is separated by the exhaust filter (l,120) accumulates at the bottom of the upper chamber of the oil separator (f,75). The flow resistance of the exhaust filters (l,120) causes the inside of the exhaust filters (which is connected to be bottom chamber of the oil separator) to be on a higher pressure level than the outside of the exhaust filters (i.e. the upper chamber of the oil separator). Because of the higher pressure in the bottom chamber it is not possible to let oil that drips off the exhaust filters simply flow down to the bottom chamber. Therefore the oil that accumulates in the upper chamber is sucked by the level switches (m,194) through the oil return lines (590,592) right to the suction connection (250).
Safety
Intended use
DEFINITION: : For the purpose of these instructions, handling the vacuum pump means the transport, storage, installation, commissioning, influence on operating conditions, maintenance, troubleshooting and overhaul of the vacuum pump. The vacuum pump is intended for industrial use. It shall be handled only by qualified personnel. The allowed media and operational limits according to the Product Description and the Installation Prerequisites of the vacuum pump shall be observed both by the manufacturer of the machinery into which the vacuum pump is to be incorporated and by the operator. The maintenance instructions shall be observed. Prior to handling the vacuum pump these operating instructions shall be read and understood. If anything remains to be clarified please contact your Busch representative!
Safety notes
The vacuum pump has been designed and manufactured according to the state-of-the-art. Nevertheless, residual risks may remain. These operating instructions inform about potential hazards where appropriate. Safety notes are tagged with one of the keywords DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION as follows: DANGER Disregard of this safety note will always lead to accidents with fatal or serious injuries. WARNING Disregard of this safety note may lead to accidents with fatal or serious injuries. CAUTION Disregard of this safety note may lead to accidents with minor injuries or property damage.
Cooling
The vacuum pump is cooled by
the ambient air around the vacuum pump, including oil mist separator (f,75) the air flow from the fan wheel (400) the conveyed gas the air flow from the fan wheels (321) on the shaft of the vacuum pump
Operational Options / Use of Optionally Available Equipment

To control the oil level in the oil mist separator, an oil level switch (u,496) is mounted in the oil mist separator. To control the oil temperature in the oil mist separator, a safety thermostat (v,488) is mounted in the oil mist separator. The electrical wiring of the safety thermostat switch has to be done in order that the interlocking stops the vacuum pump. The safety temperature switch is set at the factory with 110C. To control the increasing pressure in the oil mist separator, therefore the cleanliness of the exhaust filters, a pressure switch is mounted in the oil mist separator. The electrical wiring of the pressure switch has to be done in order that the interlocking stops the vacuum pump when the pressure in the oil mist separator increases. In order to facilitate the start of the pump, an offloading valve (optional) with an exhaust line can be installed. In case of unfavourable temperature conditions, a heat exchanger (water-oil) can be mounted as a complementary cooling (optional).
Emission of Oil Mist

CAUTION The non-OEM spares market offers exhaust filters that are geometrically compatible with Busch - vacuum pumps, but do not feature the high retention capacity of genuine Busch-exhaust filters. Increased risk of damage to health. In order to keep the emission on the lowest possible level only genuine Busch-exhaust filters shall be used. The oil in the process gas is separated to the greatest possible extent, but not perfectly.
Safety Page 4
CAUTION Aspiration of gas conveyed by the vacuum pump over extended periods can be harmful. The room into which the gas conveyed by the vacuum pump is discharged must be sufficiently vented. NOTE: The possibly sensible smell is not caused by droplets of oil, though, but either by gaseous process components or by readily volatile and thus gaseous components of the oil (particularly additives).
Make sure that the ball-cock (477) of the gas ballast device (440) is closed Make sure that the suction connection/gas inlet and the gas discharge/pressure connection are closed (leave the provided plugs in) Store the vacuum pump
Noise Emission
For the sound pressure level in free field according to EN ISO 2151, see Technical Data. CAUTION The vacuum pump emits noise of high intensity. Risk of damage to the hearing. Persons staying in the vicinity of a non noise insulated vacuum pump over extended periods shall wear ear protection.
if possible in original packaging, indoors, dry, dust free vibration free
Conservation
In case of adverse ambient conditions (e.g. aggressive atmosphere, frequent temperature changes) conserve the vacuum pump immediately. In case of favourable ambient conditions conserve the vacuum pump if a storage of more than 3 months is scheduled. During the factory tests, the vacuum pump inside has been completely in contact with oil. In case of favourable ambient conditions, it is not necessary to the pump with conservation oil . In case of unfavourable storage conditions, the vacuum pump draining with conservation oil is advised. If anything remains to be clarified please contact your Busch representative! Make sure that the oil is drained (see Maintenance, Oil Change, Draining Used Oil) Version with gas ballast device with ball-cock: Make sure that the ball-cock (477) of the gas ballast device (440) is closed Fill in conservation oil in small quantities by the suction connection, observe the oil type and the given quantity in the tables below: Oil Type Renolin MRX 68, P/N 0831 512 575 (or a conservation oil from same quality) Pump type R 5 1600 B Conservation oil quantity 4 litres
Transport
Transport in Packaging
Packed on a pallet the vacuum pump is to be transported with a forklift.
Transport without Packaging

In case the vacuum pump is bolted to a pallet or a base plate: Remove the bolting between the vacuum pump and the pallet/base plate CAUTION Do not walk, work or stand under suspended loads. NOTE: The position of the eyebolt (391) fits to the centre of gravity of a vacuum pump incl. drive motor (400). If a vacuum pump without drive motor is to be lifted, attach another belt/rope at a suitable point. Attach lifting gear securely to the eyebolt (391) on the cylinder. Attach lifting gear to a crane hook with safety latch. Lift the vacuum pump with a crane hook. In case the vacuum pump was bolted to a pallet: Remove the stud bolts from the rubber feet. CAUTION Tilting a vacuum pump that is already filled with oil can cause large quantities of oil to ingress into the cylinder. Starting the vacuum pump with excessive quantities of oil in the cylinder will immediately break the vanes and ruin the vacuum pump. Once the vacuum pump is filled with oil it shall not be lifted anymore. Prior to every transport make sure that the oil is drained
Wrap PTFE-tape around the thread of the suction connection Firmly close the suction connection with a plug. CAUTION Operation with a gas discharge/pressure connections closed will damage the vacuum pump. Make sure that the gas discharges are open. CAUTION During operation the surface of the vacuum pump may reach temperatures of more than 70C. Risk of burns! Do not touch the hot housing. Electrically connect the vacuum pump (see Installation and Commissioning, Installation, Connect Electrically) Let the vacuum pump run for at least half an hour Switch the vacuum pump off Drain the conservation oil (see Maintenance, Oil Change, Draining Used Oil) Wrap PTFE-tape around the thread of a plug

Transport Page 5
Firmly insert the plugs into the discharge connections Make sure that all ports are firmly closed ; seal all ports that are not with PTFE-tape, gaskets or o-rings with adhesive tape. NOTE: VCI stands for Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor. VCI-products (film, paper, cardboard, foam) evaporate a substance that condenses in molecular thickness on the packed good and by its electro-chemical properties effectively suppresses corrosion on metallic surfaces. However, VCI-products may attack the surfaces of plastics and elastomers. Seek advice from your local packaging dealer! Busch uses CORTEC VCI 126 R film for the overseas packaging of large equipment. Wrap the vacuum pump in VCI film Store the vacuum pump
or fit the vacuum pump with a temperature switch and control the vacuum pump in such a way that it will start automatically when the oil sump temperature drops below the allowable temperature Make sure that the environmental conditions comply with the protection class of the drive motor (according to the nameplate) Make sure that the vacuum pump will be placed or mounted horizontally Make sure that the base for placement / mounting base is even Make sure that the vacuum pump can neither inadvertently nor intentionally be stepped on and cannot be used as a support for heavy objects Make sure that the vacuum pump cannot be hit by falling objects Make sure that in order to warrant a sufficient cooling there will a clearance of minimum 1 m between the fan hood and nearby walls Make sure that no temperature sensitive parts (plastics, wood, cardboard, paper, electronics) will touch the surface of the vacuum pump Make sure that the installation space or location is vented such that a sufficient cooling of the vacuum pump is warranted CAUTION During operation the surface of the vacuum pump may reach temperatures of more than 70C. Risk of burns! Make sure that the vacuum pump will not be touched inadvertently during operation, provide a guard if appropriate Make sure that the oil sight glass (i,83) will remain easily accessible If the oil change is meant to be performed on location: Make sure that the oil drain port (j,95), the oil filters (d,100) and the oil fill port (k,88) will remain easily accessible Make sure that enough space will remain for the removal and the reinsertion of the exhaust filter(s) (l,120)
if possible in original packing, indoors, dry, dust free and vibration free
Repeat the conservation process after 12 months of immobilization CAUTION Before a new conservation process or re-installation of the vacuum pump, make sure that the gasket, plug or adhesive tape from the discharge connections are removed.
Commissioning after conservation

Make sure that the gasket, plug or adhesive tape are removed from the ports Commission the vacuum pump as described in the chapter Installation and Commissioning
Installation and Commissioning

Installation prerequisites
CAUTION In case of non-compliance with the installation prerequisites, particularly in case of insufficient cooling: Risk of damage or destruction of the vacuum pump and adjoining plant components! Risk of injury! The installation prerequisites must be complied with. Make sure that the integration of the vacuum pump is carried out such that the essential safety requirements of the Machine Directive 98/37/EC are complied with (in the responsibility of the designer of the machinery into which the vacuum pump is to be incorporated; see also the note in the EC-Declaration of Conformity)
Suction Connection
CAUTION Intruding foreign objects or liquids can destroy the vacuum pump. In case the inlet gas can contain dust or other foreign solid particles: Make sure that a suitable filter (5 micron or less) is installed upstream the vacuum pump Make sure that the suction line fits to the suction connection/gas inlet (a,260) of the vacuum pump Make sure that the gas will be sucked through a vacuum-tight flexible hose or a pipe In case of using a pipe: Make sure that the pipe will cause no stress on the vacuum pumps connection, if necessary use bellows Make sure that the line size of the suction line over the entire length is at least as large as the suction connection/gas inlet (a,260) of the vacuum pump In case of very long suction lines it is prudent to use larger line sizes in order to avoid a loss of efficiency. Seek advice from your Busch representative If two or more vacuum pumps work on the same suction line, if the volume of the vacuum system is large enough to suck back oil or if the vacuum shall be maintained after switching off the vacuum pump: Provide a manual or automatic operated valve (= non-return valve) in the suction line
Mounting Position and space

Make sure that the environment of the vacuum pump is not potentially explosive Make sure that the following ambient conditions will be complied with:
Ambient temperature: see Oil Ambient pressure: atmospheric
If the vacuum pump is installed in a colder environment than allowed with the oil used: Fit the vacuum pump either with an oil sump heater (on request)
Installation and Commissioning Page 6
(the non-return valve that is installed inside the suction connection is not meant to be used for this purpose!) If the vacuum pump is planned to be used for the suction of gas that contains limited quantities of condensable vapour Provide a shut-off valve, a drip-leg and a drain valve in the suction line, so that condensates can be drained from the suction line Make sure that the suction line does not contain foreign objects, e.g. welding scales
Temperature control
The gas temperature at the discharge side is monitored by two safety temperature switches (t,202) that are mounted in the oil mist separator (f,75). The electrical wiring of the safety temperature switch has to be done in order that the interlocking sounds an alarm and stops the vacuum pump.
set value: 110C
The safety temperature switches are set at the factory. An electrical box including a protective motor switch is available in option to connect the safety temperature switch.
Discharge connection
The following guidelines for the discharge line do not apply, if the aspirated air is discharged to the environment right at the vacuum pump. CAUTION The discharged air contains small quantities of vacuum oil. Staying in vacuum oil contaminated air bears a risk of damage to health. If air is discharged into rooms where persons stay, sufficient ventilation must be provided for. Make sure that the discharge line fits to the gas discharge connections (b,140,147) of the vacuum pump In case of using a pipe: Make sure that the pipes will cause no stress on the discharge connections, if necessary use bellows Make sure that the line size of the discharge lines over the entire length is at least as large as the gas discharge connections (b,140,147) of the vacuum pump In case of very long discharge lines it is prudent to use larger line sizes in order to avoid a loss of efficiency and an overload of the vacuum pump. Seek advice from your Busch representative Make sure that the discharge lines either slopes away from the vacuum pump or provide a liquid separator or a drip leg with a drain cock, so that no liquids can back up into the vacuum pump WARNING Discharge lines made from non-conducting material can build up static charge. Static discharge can cause explosion of potentially existing oil mist. The discharge line must be made of conducting material or provisions must be made against static discharge
Heat exchanger (water/ oil) (accessory)

It is possible to install a heat exchanger (water/ oil) (accessory) as a complementary cooling when we have applications with unfavourable ambient conditions.

Connecting cooling water

The cooling water connection can be made with flexible hoses or tubes. The cooling water outlet must be without pressure. The cooling water should match with the following requirements:
Max. cooling water pressure: 10 bar Cooling water temperature: 15C (max. 40C)
Electrical connection / Controls

Make sure that the stipulations acc. to the EMC-Directive 89/336/EEC and Low-Voltage-Directive 73/23/EEC as well as the EN-standards, electrical and occupational safety directives and the local or national regulations, respectively, are complied with (this is in the responsibility of the designer of the machinery into which the vacuum pump is to be incorporated; see also the note in the EC-Declaration of Conformity). Make sure that the power supply is compatible with the data on the nameplate of the drive motor (400) Make sure that an overload protection according to EN 60204-1 is provided for the drive motor Make sure that the drive of the vacuum pump will not be affected by electric or electromagnetic disturbance from the mains; if necessary seek advice from the Busch service In case of mobile installation:: Provide the electrical connection with grommets that serve as strain-relief
The cooling water pressure is monitored by a pressure switch (4). The electrical wiring of the pressure switch has to be done in order that the interlocking stops the vacuum pump. The cooling water flow is controlled by a thermostatic valve (7) with a temperature probe built in the oil mist separator (f,75). The adjustment of the thermostatic valve varies according to the cooling water temperature. The adjustment of the thermostatic valve from position 0 (cold position) to position 5 (warm position) let vary the cooling water temperature and should correspond to the running conditions of the customer. The solenoid valve (6), built in the cooling water inlet device, stops the cooling water inflow at the shutdown of the vacuum pump and starts the cooling water flow when the vacuum pump is started.

Risk of injury from hot oil mist with open oil fill port. Risk of injury if a loosely inserted oil fill plug is ejected. Remove the oil fill plug only if the vacuum pump is stopped. The vacuum pump must only be operated with the oil fill plug firmly inserted. Remove the oil fill plug (k,88) Filling oil according to the values set in the table Oil Make sure that the level is on MAX-mark of the oil sight glass (i,83) Make sure that the seal ring (89) is inserted into the oil fill plug (k,88) and undamaged, replace if necessary Firmly reinsert the oil fill plug (k,88) together with the seal ring (89) NOTE: Starting the vacuum pump with cold oil is made easier when at this very moment the suction line is neither closed nor covered with a rubber mat. Switch on the vacuum pump In case the suction line is equipped with a shut-off valve: Close the shut-off valve In case the suction line is not equipped with a shut-off valve: Cover the suction connection with a piece of rubber mat (a,260) Let the vacuum pump run for a few minutes Shut down the vacuum pump and wait a few minutes Make sure that the level is on MAX-mark of the oil sight glass (i,83) In case the level has fallen below the MIN-marking of the oil sight glass: Top-up oil In case the suction line is equipped with a shut-off valve: Open the shut-off valve In case the suction line is not equipped with a shut-off valve: Remove the suction connection with a piece of rubber mat
Filling Oil
In case the vacuum pump was treated with conservation oil: Drain the remainders of conservation oil and top up oil (see Maintenance/Oil and Oil Filter Change) CAUTION The vacuum pump is shipped without oil. Operation without oil will ruin the vacuum pump in short time. Prior to commissioning it must be made positively sure that oil is filled in. The vacuum pump is delivered without oil (oil specification see Oil). Only oils according to DIN 51506, lubricating oil group VC must be used. Using the correct lubricant has a determining on the end pressure (the 0,5 hPa ultimate pressure is obtained with the use of VMH 100 oil type). The application of the vacuum pump will definite the oil to be used. CAUTION A change of mineral oil by a synthetic oil needs a special procedure. If the mineral oil (VM 032, VM 068, VM 100, VMH 100) has to be exchanged for synthetic oil (VS 100, VE 101), a specific procedure must be applied. This procedure is available near all the Busch service companies. Keep approximately 30 litres oil according to the table Oil ready NOTE: The amount given in these operating instructions is a guide. The oil sight glass (i,83) indicates the actual amount to be filled in. CAUTION Before changing the oil type, compatibility shall be checked and, if necessary, the pump be flushed. CAUTION In case the vacuum pump has potentially been treated with conservation oil. Synthetic oils (except for oils based on poly-a-olefin) are incompatible with mineral oils and conservation oils. Risk of foaming leading to destruction of the vacuum pump. CAUTION Filling oil through the gas inlet (a,260) will result in breakage of the vanes (n,22) and destruction of the vacuum pump. Oil may be filled through the oil fill port only (k,88).
Fill with cooling water (for heat exchanger water/ oil)

connect the cooling water inlet open the cooling water supply open the ball valve (bypass) fill with cooling water, wait until water comes out without air bubbles at the cooling water outlet close the ball valve (bypass) connect the cooling water outlet CAUTION If there is a danger of frost it is essential that all cooling water is drained in periods of disuse. Remove the cooling water in- and outlet connections.
Recording of Operational Parameters

As soon as the vacuum pump is operated under normal operating conditions:
Measure the drive motor current and record it as reference for future maintenance and troubleshooting work Version with exhaust filter pressure gauge Read the scale of the exhaust filter pressure gauge and record it as reference for future maintenance and troubleshooting work
CAUTION The vacuum pump emits noise of high intensity. Risk of damage to the hearing. Persons staying in the vicinity of a non noise insulated vacuum pump over extended periods shall wear ear protection. Make sure that all provided covers, guards, hoods etc. are mounted Make sure that protective devices will not be disabled. Make sure that cooling air inlets and outlets are not covered or obstructed and that the cooling air flow is not affected adversely in any other way Make sure that the Installation Prerequisites (see Installation Prerequisites and Commissioning are complied with and will remain complied with, particularly that a sufficient cooling will be ensured.

CAUTION The vacuum pump is designed for operation under the conditions described below. In case of disregard risk of damage or destruction of the vacuum pump! Risk of Injury! The vacuum pump must be operated under the conditions described below. The vacuum pump is designed for
Conveying Condensable Steams

CAUTION Residual condensates dilute the oil, deteriorate its lubricating properties and can cause a jam of the rotor. Apply a suitable operating method to make sure that no condensates remain in the vacuum pump. In order to use the vacuum pump for the conveyance of condensable vapours, the vacuum pump must be equipped with shut-off valve in the suction line and with a gas ballast valve. The quantity of condensable steams are indicated in the table Technical Data. Version with gas ballast device with ball-cock: Make sure that the ballast valve (477) is open and will remain open during operation Version with gas ballast device with solenoid valve: Make sure that the solenoid valve is closed NOTE: In the case of an operation with a gas ballast device with a solenoid valve, this one opens at the start of the vacuum pump in star connection, this in order to discharge the motor. With the existing connection between the oil separator and the inlet flange, the air flow is assured. The solenoid valve is closed when the motor passes in phase delta and the vacuum can thus be obtained. Close the shut-off valve in the suction line

the suction
air and other dry, non-aggressive, non-toxic and non-explosive gases
Conveying media with a higher density than air leads to an increased thermal and mechanical load on the vacuum pump and is permissible only after prior consultation with Busch Max. allowed temperature of the inlet gas: See Oil, Ambient temperature range In case the vacuum pump is equipped with a gas ballast (optional) water vapour within the gas flow can be tolerated within certain limits (see Installation and Commissioning, Operating Notes, Conveying Condensable Vapours). The conveyance of other vapours shall be agreed upon with Busch. The vacuum pump is made for the intended use in potentially explosive areas The vacuum pump is thermally suitable for continuous operation. The vacuum pump is ultimate pressure proof. CAUTION During operation the surface of the vacuum pump may reach temperatures of more than 70 C. Risk of burns! The vacuum pump shall be protected against contact during operation. CAUTION The discharged air contains small quantities of vacuum oil. Staying in vacuum oil contaminated air bears a risk of damage to health. If air is discharged into rooms where persons stay, sufficient ventilation must be provided for.
Operate the vacuum pump with the shut-off valve in the suction line closed for approx. half an hour, so that the operating temperature will rise to approx. 75C At process start: Open the shut-off valve in the suction line At process end: Close the shut-off valve in the suction line Operate the vacuum pump for another approx. half an hour
Maintenance
WARNING In case the vacuum pump conveyed gas that was contaminated with foreign materials which are dangerous to health, harmful material can reside in filters. Danger to health during inspection, cleaning or replacement of filters. Danger to the environment. Personal protective equipment must be worn during the handling of contaminated filters. Contaminated filters are special waste and must be disposed of separately in compliance with applicable regulations CAUTION During operation the surface of the vacuum pump may reach temperatures of more than 70C. Risk of burns! Prior to action that requires touching of the vacuum pump, let the vacuum pump cool down. In case of oil draining: Let the vacuum pump cool down for no more than 20 minutes Prior to disconnecting connections make sure that the connected pipes/lines are vented to atmospheric pressure
Replace the exhaust filters (l,120) (see Exhaust filters) In case an inlet filter is installed: Clean (with compressed air) or replace the inlet air filter Check the inlet screen (h, 261), clean if necessary
Every 500 - 2000 Operating hours (see Oil Life)

Change the oil, replace the oil filter(s) (d,100) and clean the float valve (m,194) (see Oil and Oil Filter Change)
Every 16000 Operating hours, at the latest after 4 Years:

Have a major overhaul on the vacuum pump (Busch service)
Checking the oil

Checking the level
Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Make sure that the oil has collected at the bottom of the oil separator (f,75) Read the level on the sight glass (i,83) In case the level has dropped underneath the MIN-marking: Top up oil (see Topping up Oil) In case the level exceeds the MAX-marking: Check the dilution with condensates. Change the oil (see Change the oil) If appropriate retrofit a gas ballast (Busch Service) and observe the chapter Operating Notes, Conveying Condensable Vapours
Topping up Oil
NOTE: Under normal conditions there should be no need to top up oil during the recommended oil change intervals. A significant level drop indicates a malfunction (see Troubleshooting). NOTE: During operation the exhaust filter gets saturated with oil. It is therefore normal that the oil level will drop slightly after replacement of the exhaust filter. CAUTION Filling oil through the suction connection/gas inlet (a,260) will result in breakage of the vanes (n,22) and destruction of the vacuum pump. Oil may be filled through the oil fill port only (k,88). CAUTION During operation the oil separator is filled with hot, pressurised oil mist. Risk of injury from hot oil mist with open oil inlet plug (k,88). Remove the oil inlet port (k,88) only the vacuum pump is stopped. The vacuum pump must only be operated with the oil fill plug (k,88) firmly inserted. Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Remove the oil fill plug (k,88) Top up oil until the level reaches the middle of the oil sight glass (i,83) Make sure that the level is on MAX-mark of the oil sight glass (i,83) Make sure that the sealing seat (89) on the oil fill plug (k,88) is undamaged, if necessary replace the oil fill plug
Maintenance Schedule
NOTE: The maintenance intervals depend very much on the individual operating conditions. The intervals given below shall be considered as starting values which should be shortened or extended as appropriate. Particularly heavy duty operation, such like high dust loads in the environment or in the process gas, other contaminations or ingress of process material, can make it necessary to shorten the maintenance intervals significantly.
Monthly:
Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Check the level and the colour of the oil (see Checking the Oil) Check the vacuum pump for oil leaks - in case of leaks have the vacuum pump repaired (Busch service) Check the function of the exhaust filters (l,120) (see Exhaust Filters) In case an inlet air filter is installed: Check the inlet air filter, if necessary clean (with compressed air) or replace In case of operation in a dusty environment: Make sure that the housing is free from dust and dirt, clean if necessary (see Every 6 Months:)
Every 6 Months:
Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Make sure that the housing is free from dust and dirt, clean if necessary Clean the fan cowlings, fan wheels, ventilation protection screen and coolingfins
Yearly:
Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up
Maintenance Page 11
Firmly reinsert the oil fill plug (k,88) with its sealing seat (89)
Flushing the vacuum pump

WARNING Degraded oil can choke pipes and coolers. Risk of damage to the vacuum pump due to insufficient lubrication. Risk of explosion due to overheating. If there is a suspicion that deposits have gathered inside the vacuum pump the vacuum pump shall be flushed. Make sure that all the used oil is drained Make sure that the used oil filters (d,100) are still in place Create 30 litres of flushing agent from 50 percent oil and 50 percent paraffin or diesel fuel/fuel oil Make sure that the oil drain plug (j,95) is reinsert correctly Remove the oil fill plug (k,88) Fill in the flushing agent Firmly reinsert the oil fill plug (k,88) with its sealing seat (89) Close the suction line Run the vacuum pump for at least half an hour
Checking the Colour of the Oil

NOTE: The oil should be light, either transparent, a little foamy or a little tarnished. A milky discolouration that does not vanish after sedation of the oil indicates contamination with foreign material. Oil that is either contaminated with foreign material or burnt must be changed (see Oil Change).
Oil Life
The oil life depends very much on the operating conditions. A clean and dry air stream and operating temperatures below 100C are ideal. Under these conditions the oil and the oil filter shall be changed every 2000 operating hours or after half a year. Under very unfavourable operating conditions the oil life can be less than 500 operating hours. Extremely short life times indicate malfunctions (see Troubleshooting) or unsuitable operating conditions, though If there is no experience available with regard to the oil life under the prevailing operation conditions, it is recommended to have an oil analysis carried out every 500 operating hours and establish the change interval accordingly.
Oil and Oil Filter Change

WARNING In case the vacuum pump conveyed gas that was contaminated with harmful foreign material the oil will be contaminated with harmful material. Danger to health during the changing of contaminated oil. Danger to the environment. Personal protective equipment must be worn during the changing of contaminated oil. Contaminated oil is special waste and must be disposed of separately in compliance with applicable regulations.
Drain the flushing agent and dispose of it in compliance with applicable regulations NOTE: Due to the use of paraffin and even more in case of using Diesel fuel/fuel oil, unpleasant odour can occur after recommissioning. If this is a problem, Diesel fuel/fuel oil should be avoided and the vacuum pump be run at idle in a suitable place until the unpleasant odour vanishes.
Cleaning of the float valves

Make sure that all the entire used oil is drained Disconnect the oil return lines (590,592) In order to reach the floats, loosen the 2 screws (198) and remove them entire seat Loosen the screw (196) and remove the floats (194) Check the O-ring and replace them if necessary (197) Check the cleanness and the operation of the floats. Clean them with compressed air, if necessary Reinsert the floats in them seat (195). Respect the mounting direction of the floats
Draining Used Oil

NOTE: After switching off the vacuum pump at normal operating temperature wait no more than 20 minutes before the oil is drained. Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Make sure that the vacuum pump is vented to atmospheric pressure Put a drain tray underneath the oil drain port (j,95) Remove the oil drain plug (j,95) Drain the oil When the oil stream dwindles: Close the oil drain plug (j,95) Switch the vacuum pump on for a few seconds Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Remove the oil drain plug Make sure that the sealing seat on the oil drain plug is undamaged, if necessary replace the oil drain plug Firmly reinsert the oil drain plug Dispose of the used oil in compliance with applicable regulations
Replacing the Oil Filters

Make sure that the entire used oil is drained Remove the oil filters (d,100) Apply a drop of fresh oil on the seal rings of the new oil filters (d,100) Mount the new oil filters (d,100) and tighten them by hand
Filling in Fresh Oil

Keep oil acc. to the table Oil ready NOTE: The amount given in these operating instructions is a guide. The oil sight glass (i,83) indicates the actual amount to be filled in. Make sure that the oil outlet plug (j,95) is firmly inserted CAUTION Filling oil through the suction connection/gas inlet (a,260) will result in breakage of the vanes (n,22) and destruction of the vacuum pump. Oil may be filled through the oil fill port only (k,88).
Maintenance Page 12
Remove the oil fill plug (k,88) Fill in oil Make sure that the level is on MAX-mark of the oil sight glass (i,83) Make sure that the seal ring (89) is inserted into the oil inlet plug (k,88) and undamaged, replace if necessary Firmly reinsert the oil inlet plug (k,88) together with the seal ring (89)
Change of the exhaust filters

WARNING In case the vacuum pump conveyed gas that was contaminated with foreign materials which are dangerous to health, harmful material can reside in filters. Danger to health during inspection, cleaning or replacement of filters. Danger to the environment. Personal protective equipment must be worn during the handling of contaminated filters. Contaminated filters are special waste and must be disposed of separately in compliance with applicable regulations.
Exhaust Filter
Check during operation
Busch recommends the use of a filter pressure gauge (available as accessory, see Accessories). Without filter pressure gauge the filter resistance shall be assessed on the basis of the drive motor current drawn. Make sure that the vacuum pump is running Version with filter pressure gauge: Check that the indication of the filter pressure gauge is in the usual range (< 0,6 bar) Version without filter pressure gauge: Check that the drive motor current drawn is in the usual range (see nameplate) Check that the discharge air is free from oil NOTE: The discharge air will also contain oil if the vacuum pump is operated without interruption for too long a period (see Operation Notes).
Removing the exhaust filters

Make sure that the vacuum pump is shut down and locked against inadvertent start up Prior to disconnecting pipes/lines make sure that the connected pipes/lines are vented to atmospheric pressure Remove the discharge lines, if necessary Remove the discharge covers (142) from the oil separator Remove the filter material (129,130) for the discharge covers, if necessary Remove the seals for the separator covers (141), if necessary Release the spring elements (125) by unscrewing the screws (126) and remove them Remove the filters supports (115,116,117) Remove the exhaust filters (l,120) and the o-rings (121)
Assessment
If the indication of the filter pressure gauge is in the red field, (> 0,6 bar) or the drive motor (400) draws too much current and/or the pump flow rate has dropped, then the exhaust filters (l,120) are clogged and must be replaced. NOTE: Exhaust filters cannot be cleaned successfully. Clogged exhaust filters must be replaced with new ones. If the filter pressure gauge indicates a lower pressure than usual, or the drive motor draws less current than usual, the exhaust filters (l,120) can be clogged and must be replaced. If the discharge air contains oil, the exhaust filters (l, 120) can be clogged or broken through and, if applicable, must be replaced.
Inserting the Exhaust Filters

CAUTION The non-OEM spares market offers exhaust filters that are geometrically compatible with Busch-vacuum pumps, but do not feature the high retention capacity of genuine Busch-exhaust filters and deteriorate the service life and the efficiency of the vacuum pump due to their increased back pressure. Increased risk of damage to health. Adverse effect on efficiency and service life. In order to keep the emission on the lowest possible level and to preserve efficiency and service life only genuine Busch-exhaust filters shall be used. Mount the new exhaust filters (l,120) with the new o-rings (121) Insert the filters support (116), motor side Insert the filters support (117), heat exchanger side (241) The assembly of the exhaust filters being identical for each side, it will be described in this operating instructions only the assembly for one side. Please repeat the following operations for the second side. Mount a first exhaust filter. Be sure to fit the exhaust filter as indicated by the arrow at exhaust filter. Mount spring element (125) and apply a tension to the spring element by means of the screw of tension (126) Proceed in the same way for the second exhaust filter Insert the filters support (115) in order to assemble the second line of exhaust filters Mount a first exhaust filter. Be sure to fit the exhaust filter as indicated by the arrow at exhaust filter. Mount spring element (125)

The oil return line starts in an area vented to atmospheric pressure. Particularly on small model pumps, a fairly large amount of air is sucked through the oil return line, which may prevent the ultimate pressure from reaching 20 bar abs. In order to exclude this possible cause: squirt oil through the gas discharge/pressure connection (b) into the oil return line. While oil is being sucked in, the ultimate pressure is not affected by the air normally sucked through the oil return line. The gas conveyed by the vacuum pump smells displeasing Process components evaporating under vacuum Readily volatile and thus gaseous components of the oil, e.g. additives, particularly right after an oil change. NOTE: This is no indication of a malfunction of the oil separator. The oil separator is able to retain droplets of oil, however no gaseous components of it The vacuum pump does not start The drive motor is not supplied with the correct voltage or is overloaded The drive motor starter overload protection is too small or trip level is too low Supply the drive motor with the correct voltage Compare the trip level of the drive motor starter overload protection with the data on the nameplate Correct if necessary In case of high ambient temperature: Set the trip level of the drive motor starter overload protection 5 percent above the nominal drive motor current One of the fuses has blown The connection cable is too small or too long causing a voltage drop at the vacuum pump The vacuum pump or the drive motor is blocked Check the fuses Use sufficiently dimensioned cable Check the process, if applicable Use a different type of oil, if applicable
