4 Installation
Skilled personnel
The vacuum connection may only be established by persons who have
suitable technical training and the necessary experience or who have
been instructed by the end-user of the product.
DANGER
Caution: overpressure in the vacuum system >1 bar
Injury caused by released parts and harm caused by escaping process
gases can result if clamps are opened while the vacuum system is
pressurized.
Do not open any clamps while the vacuum system is pressurized. Use
the type of clamps which are suited to overpressure.
Caution
Caution: dirt sensitive area
Touching the product or parts thereof with one's bare hands increases
the desorption rate.
Always wear clean, lint-free gloves and use clean tools when working
in this area.
Caution
Caution: vacuum component
Dirt and damages impair the function of the vacuum component.
When handling vacuum components, take appropriate measures to
ensure cleanliness and prevent damages.
Keep the protective lids.

· dry, free of oil or containing oil (Keep using the same quality).
If using compressed air which contains oil, dispose of it in accordance
with the relevant regulations.
Caution
Specifications for the plastic tube:
· bursting pressure ³10 bar overpressure (1 MPa)
· material: PA soft or PU
Caution
To ensure leak tightness of the instant push-in fitting
· cut the plastic tube square
· make sure the outside of the plastic tube is not damaged.

Caution: plastic thread
The plastic thread can get damaged by tilting or overturning the instant
push-in fitting.
· Use the enclosed instant push-in fitting (with extra-long thread)
only.
· Screw in the instant push-in fitting without tilting it and without
exceeding the tightening torque of 0.5 Nm.
Caution
Contrary to the illustration below, the compressed air inlets and outlets
of the angle valves with vacuum connection DN 40 ISO-KF and serial

The electrical connection, in accordance with the VDE 0100 guide-
lines, may be made only by a licensed electrician, qualified as per
VDE 0105. The line cables shall be isolated from the line supply during
all electrical work.
WARNING
Caution: mains voltage
The pilot valve can get destroyed if a wrong mains voltage is applied.
The local mains power rating must correspond with the nominal volt-
age of the pilot valve (®22). If they do not correspond, exchange the
pilot valve (®220).
