The Sogevac®vacuum pumps have been manufactured according to the lat-
est technical standards and safety regulations. If not installed properly or not
used as directed, dangerous situations or damages could occur.
It is mandatory that these operating instructions be read and understood
prior to vacuum pump installation and start-up.
The pump complies to the standard EN 61010-1.
High electric voltages! When touching parts at high electric voltages, there is
the risk of suffering severe injuries by an electric shock! Covers marked with
this symbol must only be opened by trained electricians after having reliably
deenergised (lockout/tagout) the equipment.
Always operate the pump with a properly connected protective earth con-
ductor and make sure that the motor & FC connection box are closed.
Use only the Leybold frequency converter for the pumps equipped with one.
After having made changes to the wiring, check the motor’s direction of rota-
tion.
Lay the connecting lines so that these cannot be damaged. Protect the lines
against humidity and contact with fluids. Avoid thermally stressing the lines by
unfavourable laying. Provide strain relief for the connecting lines so that the
plugs and the line connectors are not subjected to excessively high mechani-
cal stresses.
Lay electric feed lines so that there is no risk of tripping over these.
Take appropriate precautions to insure that the pump cannot start.
If the pump has pumped hazardous gases it will be absolutely necessary to
determine the nature of the hazard involved and take the appropriate safety
precautions.
Observe all safety regulations!
Take adequate safety precautions prior to opening the intake or exhaust port.
Failure to observe the following precautions could result in damage
to the equipment!
Liquid and solid particles must not enter the pump. Install the adequate fil-
ters, separators and/or condensers. In case of doubt consult Leybold.
The intake line of the pump must never be connected to a device with over
atmospheric pressure. Design the exhaust line so that no pressure higher
than 1,15 bar abs. (0,15 bar rel.) can occur.
Operating of the pump without oil or operating with incorrect direction of
rotation can destroy the pump.
Never use discarded seals. Always assemble using new seals.

300452480_002_C1 - 12/2017 - © Leybold
Respect the instructions concerning environment protection when discarding
used oil or exhaust filters!
The pump must be packaged in such a way that it will not be damaged dur-
ing shipping, and so that no harmful substances can escape from the pack-
age.
We reserve the right to alter the design or any data given in these Operating
Instructions. The illustrations are not binding.
Caution : hot surface ! In normal operation, the pump surface temperature
can reach 85°C. There is a risk of burning. Switch off the pump and let it
cool down before any intervention or take appropriate precautions. It is rec-
ommended to use an oil casing or pump touching protection at high ambient
temperatures.
As a touching protection, you can use the “Noise enclosure for SV40 BI + 65
BI FC” P/N 960331NENC. The noise enclosure is an accessory not included
in the pump delivery.
All work on a pump which is “still warm from operation” should be done only
whilst wearing protective gloves.
Handle the pump only while vented and after having let it cool down.
Never remove the oil-fill or oil-drain plugs while the pump is running. There
exists the risk of suffering burns. Always wear protective gloves and protec-
tive goggles also for protection against the oil.
Some pumps use perfluoropolyether (PFPE) as lubricant.
When handling PFPE you should observe the following:
During thermal decomposition at temperatures over 290 °C toxic and cor-
rosive gases are released. This is not likely to happen in a Sogevac®pump.
When handling PFPE keep it way from open fires. Do not smoke with PFPE
on your fingers.
Touch the inner sections of the pumps only while wearing clean gloves, and
use clean tools; do the necessary work in clean and dry rooms.
Do not allow the ingestion of any objects (screws, welding beads, nuts,
washers, pieces of wire, fittings etc.) through the intake port of the pump.
Objects falling into the pump can cause severe damage.

1 Description
Sogevac®pumps are designed for pumping of inert gases in the range of
rough vacuum, between atmospheric pressure and ultimate pressure of the
pump.
When removing condensable vapours, periodic opening of the gas ballast
valve is required.
1.1 Principle of operation
The Sogevac®pumps are single-stage oil-sealed rotary vane vacuum pumps.
The rotor, having three slots in which the vanes are sliding, is eccentrically
installed in a pump cylinder (stator).
The vanes separate the interior space into 3 chambers. The volume of these
chambers varies with the rotation of the rotor.
The gas sucked into the inlet chamber is compressed and then pushed out
at the exhaust valve.
The oil injected in the inlet chamber guarantees the air-tightness, the lubrica-
tion and cooling of the pump. It is dragged off by the compressed gases and
roughly separated by gravity when entering in the oil sump. A fine separation
is then operated in the exhaust filter. An internal transfer pushes the collected
oil back into the vacuum generator, the transfer is operated by a float valve
to avoid atmospheric air coming from the oil casing to the inlet of the pump
when no oil is present in the recovery system.
The oil circulation functions by differential pressures.
The pumps are equipped with a gas ballast valve for pumping condensable
vapours.
The anti suckback valve at the inlet flange avoids oil coming back into the
inlet line when the pump is stopped. This is valid for working pressures below
100 mbar and under the condition that the valve is kept clean and in good
condition. The anti suck-back valve is not a safety valve. If oil back flowing is
to be avoided by all means, it is necessary to mount a separate safety valve
on the pump inlet.
Some variants are equipped with a frequency converter giving a constant
pumping speed independently of the mains frequency and regulating the
pump power consumption. At high inlet pressures, the pump speed is
decreased.
The pump speed can be reduced to 900 rpm (idle mode) to reduce the
power consumption w/o loss of end pressure on some pump variants. In this
idle mode, the pump inlet pressure must remain below 10 mbar.

Transport and storing
2 Transport and Storing
2.1 Transport and packaging
Sogevac®vacuum pumps pass a rigorous operating test in our factory and
are packaged to avoid transport damages. Indications on the packaging
must be observed.
Please check packaging on delivery for transport damages.
The outer package bears a shock indicator, turning red at 50 g. Should the
shock indicator have reacted, a transportation damage may have occurred
and the freight forwarder must be advised.
Packing materials should be disposed off according to environmental laws or
re-cycled. These operating instructions are part of the consignment.
The connection ports are blanked off by plastic protective caps or self-adhe-
sives. Take these caps or self-adhesives away before turning on the pump.
2.2 Mounting orientation
See required space on drawings in paragraph 1.2.
Pumps which have been filled with oil must only be moved in the upright
position (horizontally). Otherwise oil may escape. The angle of slope may not
be over 10° max. Avoid any other orientations while moving the pump.
Only use the lifting lugs which are provided on the pump to lift the pump with
the specified lifting devices.
Make sure that these have been installed safety. Use suitable lifting equip-
ment. Make sure that all safety regulations are observed.
Use only lifting devices appropriated to the pump weight. Check name plate.
Do not use other pump elements than the lifting lugs as handles.
2.3 Storing
Before stocking the pump for a long time put it back in its original condition
(blank off inlet and exhaust ports with the shipping seals, drain the oil) and
store the pump in a dry place at room temperature.
Storage temperature: - 15°C to + 50°C.
Until the pump is put back in to service again, the pump should be stored in
a dry place, preferably at room temperature (20 °C - 168 °F). Before taking
the pump out of service, it should be properly disconnected from the vacu-
um system, purged with dry nitrogen and the oil should be exchanged too.
The gas ballast must be closed and if the pump is to be shelved for a longer
period of time it should be sealed in a plastic bag together with a desiccant
(Silicagel).
If the pump has been shelved for over one year, standard maintenance must
be done and the oil must be exchanged too before the pump is put in to ser-
vice once more.
We recommend that you contact the service from Leybold.

3 Installation
It is essential to observe the following instructions step by step to ensure safe
start-up. Start-up may only be conducted by trained specialists.
The standard pump is not suitable for installation in explosion hazard ATEX
areas. Please contact us, if you are planning such an application. Before
installing the pump you must reliably disconnect it from the electrical power
supply and prevent the pump form running up inadvertently.
Observe all safety regulations.
3.1 Setting up
The pump must be set up or mounted horizontally on a flat surface. Special
mounting is not required.
The pump must be levelled within a tolerance of ± 2 degrees.
The following ambient operating environment must be observed:
■Pollution degree 2
■Ambient temperature: 18 °C to 40 °C (54 °F to 104 °F),
■Ambient pressure = Atmospheric pressure.
■ Rel. humidity ≤ 95 % without condensation
In order to avoid over-heating of the pump, an undisturbed fresh airflow to
the pump is necessary.
Additional warning note : consider changes in ambient temperatures that
might occur when air conditioning is turned down, such as nights and week-
ends.
The pump must be kept clean (no dust deposit).
Normal presence of transient over-voltages due to the power mains.
NOTE : the usual transient over-voltage level corresponds to the category II
of the impulse withstand (over-voltage) of the IEC 60364-4-443.
Inlet connection
See safety instructions page 3.
■The inlet flange can be connected with a vacuum-tight flexible hose
and/or pipe.
■The pipes should cause no stresses on the pump’s flanges. If necessary,
compensators must be opened.
■Restriction of the pipes must be avoided in order not to decrease the
pumping speed of the pump. The nominal diameter of the pipes has to be at
least the same as the diameter of pump’s inlet flange.
■When removing condensable vapours, a gas ballast valve must be opened
periodically to avoid solvent build up in the oil.
■Additional warning note: additional air flow may be needed during ballast,
as this increases pump temperature.
■The inlet pressure must not be above atm. pressure.
See also indications on the pump nameplate.

Ensure that incoming power to the pump is off before wiring the motor or
altering the wiring.
IEC & local electrical regulations must be followed.
Should the pump be connected to a standard wall socket, it must be
checked that a building protection rated 16 A is installed (fuse or breaker) to
protect the power cable. The frequency converter itself is self-protecting.
Even if the pump is not operating, live voltage is present in the frequency
converter !
Voltage and frequency mentioned on the pump nameplate must agree with
the supply voltage.
The control cable must be at least distant by 10 cm to the mains cable and
crossings shall be at 90°.
Pump control and power supply connection:
See « Ordering information » for the power supply & interface type on the
pump.
The power socket and cord are disconnection elements which must remain
accessible to the users.
In de-energized condition, plug the mains cable to the pump. Then connect
the mains cable to the wall socket or instrument power supply.
Connection to exhaust side
■No valve or restricting devices should be installed in the exhaust line of the
pump. If an exhaust line is installed, it must at least have the same diameter
as the exhaust flange. It should be installed in a manner so that no conden-
sate can enter the pump (siphon, slope).
The maximum exhaust pressure must neither exceed 1.15 bar absolute (0.15
bar relative), nor fall under atmosphere pressure minus 15 mbar.
Pump exhaust to be connected if oil mist or process gases are to be avoided
in the pump area.
Corresponding pressure regulating devices to be installed by the user.

Operation
The pump is protected against over-currents by two 5X20 mm internal fuses
rated 250 V, 12.5 A Time lag T.
The fuse is mounted in a separate housing and can be exchanged from out-
side using a screwdriver to open the fuse holder cap. See drawing below.
Exchange fuse only with electrically unplugged pump.
3.3 Oil filling
The pump is delivered with its oil inside.
To fill in the oil, unscrew the oil fill plug and fill in until the oil level reaches the
“MAX” mark beside the oil sight glass.
1 l oil is needed for the SV40 BI FC .
2 l oil are needed for the SV65 BI FC.
3.4 Start-up
Always verify proper oil level before operating the pump.
4 Operation
4.1 Operation
To avoid overloading the motor, do not start the pump more than 6 times
within one hour. If more than 6 starts per hour are necessary keep the pump
running and mount a valve which opens and closes into the intake line.
Take note of warning labels on the pump.
Use ear protection in case of operation at high inlet pressures

Pumping of non-condensable gases
If the pump system contains mainly non condensable gases, the pumps
should be operated without gas ballast.
If the composition of the gases to be pumped is not known and if condensa-
tion in the pump cannot be ruled out, run the pump with gas ballast valve
open in accordance with section below.
Pumping of condensable gases and vapors
With the gas ballast valve open and at operating temperature, the Sogevac®
pumps can pump pure water vapor up to the values indicated in the
Technical Data.
The gas ballast valve is opened by hand by a knob or a screwdriver on
the fan cover or by en EM valve 24 VDC. The running noise of the pump is
slightly louder if the gas ballast valve is open. Before pumping vapors ensure
that the pump has warmed up for approx. 30 min. with closed intake line and
with open gas ballast valve.
Don’t open the pump to condensable vapors until it has warmed to operating
temperature (approximately); pumping process gas with a cold pump results
in vapors condensing in the oil.
One sign of condensation of vapors in the pump is a rise of the oil level dur-
ing operation of the pump.
When vapors are pumped, the pump must not be switched off immediately
after completion of the process because the condensate dissolved in the
pump oil may cause changes or corrosion. To prevent this, the pump must
continue to operate with open gas ballast valve and closed intake port until
the oil is free of condensate. We recommend operating the pump in this
mode for at least 30 min. after completion of the process.
Daily ballasting is recommended when continuously pumping larger volumes
of condensable vapors.
In cycle operation, the pump should not be switched off between the cycles
but should continue to run with gas ballast valve open and intake port closed
(if possible via a valve). Power consumption is minimal when the pump is
operating at ultimate pressure.
Once all vapors have been pumped off from a process (e. g. during drying),
the gas ballast valve can be closed in order to improve the ultimate pressure.
4.2 Working in cycles in / out
We recommend strongly to limit starting of the pump to 5 or 6 per hour.
If the process need it, we recommend utilization of a pneumatic or electro-
magnetic valve and to let the pump run continously.

Operation
4.3 Switching off / Shutdown
The intake port of the Sogevac®pumps contains an anti-suckback valve
which closes the intake port when the pump is switched off, thus maintain-
ing the vacuum in the connected apparatus and preventing oil from being
sucked back into the apparatus. The valve’s functioning is not impaired by
gas ballast operation.
If the pump has to be shutdown, drain the oil flush out the pump with fresh
oil and fill in the required amount of clean oil (see § 5.4). Close the connec-
tion ports. Special preservation or flushing oils do not need to be used.
When the pump has been switched off due to over heating, initiated by the
motor or its temperature detector, the pump must be cooled down to the
ambient temperature, and must only be switched on again manually after
having eliminated the cause.
In order to prevent the pump from running up unexpectedly after a mains
power failure, the pump must be integrated into the control sytem in such
a way that the pump can only be started by a manual action. This applies
equally to emergency cut-off switches.
Close the gasballast.
4.4 Conditions of use
The Sogevac®SV BI (FC) pumps are intended to be used on clean pro-
cesses, at low inlet pressure, e.g. for backing turbo molecular pumps (TMP)
in Analytical or R&D applications like mass spectrometers, electronic micro-
scopes, coating installations, etc.
In normal operation, the Sogevac®SV BI (FC) pumps operated typically
below 10 mbar inlet pressure or at ultimate pressure with open gas ballast
(for pumps having a gas ballast). Continuous duty is possible up to 50 mbar.
In the below listed abnormal conditions (but not limited to) the pump may
stop due to overheating of the power electronics or motor.
- Continuous operation at high inlet pressure
- Restricted, clogged or blocked exhaust filter or exhaust line
- Out of tolerance supply voltage
- Unsuitable, polluted or too old oil
- Too low oil level
- Too high ambient temperature
- Clogged fan hoods or impeded fresh air circulation
- Etc.
The pump has been designed & tested to work in an normal EMC environ-
ment in acc. to IEC 61326-1 Table 1.

5.3 Leybold Service
Whenever you send us in equipment, indicate whether the equipment is con-
taminated or is free of substances which could pose a health hazard.
If it is contaminated, specify exactly which substances are involved. You must
use the form we have prepared for this purpose.
A copy of the form has been reproduced at the end of these Operating
Instructions: “Declaration of Contamination for Compressors, Vacuum Pumps
and Components”. Another suitable form is available from
www.leybold.com →Downloads →Download Documents.
Attach the form to the equipment or enclose it with the equipment.
This statement detailing the type of contamination is required to satisfy legal
requirements and for the protection of our employees.
We must return to the sender any equipment which is not accompanied by a
contamination statement.
The pump must be packaged in such a way that it will not be damaged
during shipping, and so that no harmful substances can escape from the
package.
When disposing of used oil, please observe the relevant environmental regu-
lations.
5.4 Maintenance Work
Checking the oil
A. Oil level
The oil level shall be checked at least once a day and must be, while the
pump is in operation, close to the MAX marks. Should the oil level be below
the MIN mark switch off the pump, check it (see chapter 4) and add the
required amount of oil.
Oil level may drop when pump is operating due to oil distribution in the
pump.
B. Oil Change
Oil must be changed typically after the first year of service. Further oil chan-
ges must be done annually. If there is considerable pollution, it could be
necessary to change the oil more frequently.
Oil changing must be done with a switched off and still warm pump. Open
the oil drain plug and let the used oil run out into an appropriate container.
Refasten the oil drain plug when oil runs sloup the pump briefly (5 sec. max.)
and switch of immediately. Reopen the oil drain plug and drain the rest of the
oil.
Additional warning note: more frequent oil changes may be necessary if the
ambient temperature is above 30 °C.
Before refastening the oil drain plug, inspect the o-ring and verify that it is free
of particulate and is seated properly. Replace if necessary.
The pump should be "flushed" if there is considerable pollution.
