1 Description
1.1 Design and Function
TheTURBOTRONIK NT 340 M, NT 340 MA, and NT 341
MA are electronic frequency converters.They operate
turbomolecular pumps TURBOVAC.
The TURBOTRONIK NT 340 MA and NT 341 MA are
prepared for operation with an additional temperature
control unit. This temperature control unit is part of a
temperature control which maintains the temperature of
the TURBOVAC within a narrow control range.
The TURBOTRONIK converts the single-phase mains
voltage into a regulated DC power supply.The unit’s
electronic circuitry then switches this DC power supply
onto the four stator windings of the TURBOVAC’s com-
mutatorless DC motor in a cyclical sequence.
This electronic switching system uses Hall probes, and
replaces the commutator normally found in DC motors.A
digital controller keeps the speed of the motor constant.
The TURBOTRONIK also powers and regulates the
magnetic bearing unit. Switching the motor to the gen-
erator mode keeps the magnetic bearing unit in operati-
on even in case of a mains power failure.
Both the TURBOTRONIK and the TURBOVAC are fitted
with sensors to ensure reliable operation of the entire
system. External control and monitoring equipment e.g.
the LEYBOTRONIK I can be connected via floating plug-
and-socket terminals located at the rear of the TUR-
BOTRONIK. Both the remote control unit and the lines
for the pump system’s status signals are connected here.
These terminals also provide connections for controlling
the forepump, the heater and valves.
An RS-232 interface provides a further control and mon-
itoring option.
The unit also has a counter-current braking system for
slowing down the pump when it is shut down.

2.7 Connecting the Interface
A description of the interface for operating the TUR-
BOTRONIK with a computer can be ordered under the
description SB 05.207.
The parameters for the interface will be set at the DIP
switches.
At DIP switch 1 you can choose whether the analog out-
put voltage at the terminal strip REMOTE will rise pro-
portionnally to the motor current or the speed.
ON analog output = motor current LOAD.
OFF analog output = SPEED.
2.8 Connecting the Remote
Control Unit
For the signal assignments of the terminal strip REMO-
TE refer to fig. 12.
Switching examples see fig. 13.
Technical Data see section 1.3.
Relay statuses see table 4.
Note for Switching Example ON/OFF Switch
If instead of the ON-OFF switch a jumper is established
between Pin 4 and 20, theTURBOVAC will start up auto-
matically once the TURBOTRONIK is switched on.
Caution The maximum permissible voltage at each
of the terminals is 25 Veff AC, 60 V DC ver-
sus protective conductor.

2.9 Modifying the Relay
FAILURE (Option)
On delivery the relay FAILURE is a resting contact (nor-
mally closed). It can be changed to an operating contact
(normally open).
Warning Before you open the TURBOTRONIK
please first ensure that the TURBOVAC has
been braked to a complete standstill, and
that the mains power cord is disconnected.
Since, nonetheless dangerous voltages
may occur the unit must only be opened by
a qualified electrician.
For modifying the relays, remove the fastening screw of
the upper cover sheet at the rear and pull out the upper
cover sheet.
Modify the jumper (14/2).
State of deliveryresting contact 1-2
Modification operating contact 2-3
Close the TURBOTRONIK again.
We recommend noting all the modifications made on the
unit itself or at least in the Operating Instructions for that
particular instrument.
2.10 Installing the
TURBOTRONIK
Install the TURBOTRONIK.
The heat dissipation of the TURBOTRONIK must not be
obstructed. Insure a sufficient ventilation - the ambient
temperature during operation must not exceed 45°C
(113°F).
If - after installation - the rear of the TURBOTRONIK
is no more accessible, switch on the POWER switch
before mounting and if nec.set the starting delay;refer to
section 3.1.
Warning If the TURBOTRONIK is built into a rack the
mains plug is not within easy reach. There-
fore install a separation between the TUR-
BOTRONIK and the mains when you build it
into a rack.
Warning Do not operate theTURBOTRONIK with the
standard mains lead in chemically aggressi-
ve surroundings.If you operate the TUR-
BOTRONIK in chemically aggressive surro-
undings replace the mains lead by a resi-
stant one.

Operation
3 Operation
3.1 Start-up
Insert the power plug.
Switch on the POWER switch.
Having switched on the power switch the TURBOVAC’s
stabilizer is activated and the rotor lifts up.
Afterwards all LEDs light up for approx. 2 s for a func-
tional check.The green LED „POWER“ remains on.
On the TURBOTRONIK NT 340 MA and 341 MA with
temperature control the temperature control is switched
on.
It is not necessary to check or to recalibrate the rotor
position control system.
Setting the Start-up Delay
You can set a start-up delay for the TURBOVAC of up to
five minutes at the rear of theTURBOTRONIC at DELAY.
Due to the starting delay theTURBOVAC starts after the
forevacuum pump.
Selecting high or optimized speed
(only on NT 340 MA & NT 341 MA)
TheTURBOVAC is designed for operation with optimized
speed.
In certain cases the standard speed which is set on deli-
very, can be increased (HIGH SPEED). Please contact
your local Leybold service representative.
Caution HIGH SPEED operation may result in shor-
ter operational lifetime of the pump. Your
warranty may be voided.
3.2 Start-up of the
TURBOVAC
Pressing the START key initiates the acceleration
sequence; if a forevacuum pump is connected it will start
up immediately.
If a delay has been set, the START LED will flash during
the delay period, after which it will remain on con
tinuously and the TURBOVAC starts.
The NORMAL LED flashes during acceleration.The LED
chain indicates the increasing speed with one LED each.
When 95% of the target speed has been reached, the
LED NORMAL remains on continuously, the START LED
extinguishes.
During normal operation the LED chain indicates the
course of the increasing motor power consumption; the
increasing current (load) drawn by the TURBOVAC is
indicated by the LED chain with one LED each lighting
up after the other starting at the bottom and moving
upwards.
If the TURBOVAC exceeds the minimum speed within 8
minutes but does not attain 95 % of the target speed it
will change to OVERLOAD operation.
The LED OVERLOAD lights up and the LED chain indic-
ates the speed.
3.3 Bake-out of the
TURBOVAC
(only for NT 340 M)
Bake-out is only possible with the CF version during
NORMAL operation.
Pressing the HEATING key switches the flange heater
ON and OFF.The green LED in the key lights up when
the heating is ON.
With preselection the LED flashes during the accelera
tion phase; during NORMAL and activated heating the
LED lights continuously.
18 GA 05.218/3.02 - 11/97

Operation
3.4 Operation
During normal operation theTURBOVAC runs with target
speed. The LED NORMAL lights and the LED chain
shows - starting at the bottom and moving upwards -
the current consumed.
In case of increased load (e.g.increased pressure due to
a leak) the speed is compensated via an additional cur-
rent consumption.Thus, the number of the lighting LEDs
is a measure of the pressure rise.
A further pressure rise beyond the point of the max. cur-
rent limitation leads to a decreasing speed due to an
increasing gas friction.
The speed will likewise drop when the temperature of the
TURBOVAC or TURBOTRONIK is too high, the LED
OVERLOAD lights up.
If the target speed drops below 95% the LED chain indi-
cates the speed.The LED NORMAL flashes.
If the speed drops below the minimum speed, the TUR-
BOVAC is switched off and the LED FAILURE lights up.
3.5 Shut-down of the
TURBOVAC
Pressing the STOP key switches off the pump and the
heater and activates braking.
The forevacuum pump will be switched off provided it is
connected via FOREPUMP; the TURBOVAC will be ven-
ted if the venting valve is connected via (3/13).
The LED in the STOP key lights up, and the LED NOR-
MAL flashes until the TURBOVAC stands still.
The motor brakes the pump actively until it comes to a
complete standstill; the speed is again indicated by the
LED chain.
If a malfunction occurs the FAILURE signal can be reset
via the STOP key provided the cause of malfunction has
been eliminated and the rotor of the TURBOVAC stands
still.
3.6 Venting of the
TURBOVAC
Vent the TURBOVAC every time the TURBOVAC is
switched off in order to prevent a potential backstrea-
ming of oil vapors from the forevacuum line to the high-
vacuum side.
If a power failure airing valve or a delayed venting
device is connected to the socket (3/13)VALVE the TUR-
BOTRONIK controls venting automatically.
3.7 Power Failure -
Linecord Interruption
If there is a power failure or if the power plug is
accidentally disconnected, the TURBOTRONIK automa-
tically switches over the drive of theTURBOVAC to gene-
rator operation. This means that during run-down of the
pump, the active magnetic bearing regulation will be
maintained until the rotor sets down on the touch-down
bearings with the rate of rotation being low.
If the connecting lines between the TURBOVAC and the
TURBOTRONIK are interrupted, the automatic gener-
ator operation and the emergency power supply to the
active magnetic bearing are put out of operation. In this
case, the rotor is set down immediately onto the touch-
down bearings, runs down with a considerable noise
level and there is a risk that the touch-down bearings are
damaged.
The connection line to the TURBOTRONIK is secured
against accidental interruption.If it is, nevertheless, inter-
rupted e.g. by mechanical destruction, brake the TUR-
BOVAC via venting until it stands still.

Operation
3.8 Shutdown of the
TURBOTRONIK
Press the STOP key, and wait until the pump comes to a
standstill.
The LEDs in the keys START, STOP and NORMAL are
extinguished.
Switch the POWER switch to the “0” position. The tem-
perature control at the TURBOTRONIK NT 340 MA and
NT 341 MA with temperature control is switched off.
If the red LED DON’T DISCONNECT has gone off the
connection lines to theTURBOVAC can be disconnected
in case of necessity.
Caution Only after the pump has come to a standstill
is the POWER switch to be switched to the
“0” positon.
In case of accidental shutdown, start up the pump at
once.
3.9 Maintenance
The TURBOTRONIK is maintenance-free.
