Power Cable Selection Standards
Thank you very much for your purchasing our vacuum pump.
This vacuum pump does not have any power cable attached as supplied.
It is up to the user to provide an appropriate power cable for your vacuum pump.
Please be advised of the standards and precautions that you should use to provide
the power cable.
1. Power Cable Selection Standards
The pump is equipped with a single-phase 100-120 V (50/60 Hz) and 200-240 V (50/60 Hz) motor.
Power cable selection standards vary with the working power supply voltage, 100-120V or 200-240V.
The power cable selection standards are shown in a table below.
Do not fail to select your power cable in accordance with the standards.
For a shape of the cable plug to be inserted in the pump motor power inlet, select Type IEC60320-C13.
Power Cable Selection Standards
Supply Voltage Voltage Rating Current Rating Temperature

2. Precautions
2.1 Unplug-preventive hardware
Whenever you may operate the vacuum pump with your power cable, provide it with the
unplug-preventive hardware, which should be selected so as to fit the shape of the power cable.
The unplug-preventive hardware allows you to secure the power cable so that the motor may not
Accidentally have it unplugged.
For a procedure for installing the unplug-preventive hardware, refer to “2.2 How to Install
Unplug-preventive Hardware.”
Whenever you may operate the vacuum pump with the power cable, do not fail to secure
it with the unplug-preventive hardware.
Should you operate the vacuum pump without the unplug-preventive hardware, there
is a fear that the power cable may be unplugged during the operation. If so, the
vacuum pump will stop operating, bringing about possibilities, such as electric
shock, injury, fire or the like.
Warning

(2/2)
2.2 How to Install Unplug-preventive Hardware
Install the unplug-preventive hardware in accordance with the procedure as follows:
(1) Let one end of the unplug-preventive hardware
catch the hole to the side of the inlet in the interior.
(2) While pushing the unplug-preventive hardware at
the other end, let it catch the hole to the side of the
inlet in the interior.
(3) Raise the unplug-preventive hardware.
(4) Insert the power cable firmly enough.
(5) Lower the unplug-preventive hardware and
secure the power cable.
Now, the unplug-preventive hardware is completely installed.

transportation, etc.
In order to use the pump for as long as possible, read this instruction manual
thoroughly before performing installation, operation, inspection and
maintenance, and sufficiently understand the cautions for safety, the
specifications and operation methods of the pump.
No part of this instruction manual may be copied for use by a third party
without our permission.

0.3 Cautions for safety
This pump is for dry air or the dry nitrogen suck only.
Never allow people other than repair engineers to disassemble or repair the
pump. Failure to do so may result in ignition or malfunction, leading to injury
or electric shock.
Connect the earth wire correctly. It is recommended that a dedicated earth
leakage breaker should be installed. If the earth wire is not connected, there
is a possibility of electric shock occurring in the case of a malfunction
or electrical leakage.
There is a risk of explosion. Never block the outlet or operate the pump with
equipment mounted at the outlet side which blocks the passage of gas.
Otherwise, the internal pump pressure increases causing the pump to explode,
the oil level gauge to protrude or the motor to be overloaded.
This pump is not resistant to pressure. The internal pump pressure is limited
to 0.03 MPa (gauge pressure).
The Vacuum Pump Unit is device a built-in device. Do not install it without
adequate protection against heat hazard. The surface temperature of the
vacuum Pump Unit can exceed 90 degrees in case it is operated under high
pressure (atmospheric to 10kPa).
It gets an electric shock touching the motor energizing part. Please work
after pulling out the power plug without fail when wires electricity is
connected, it checks, and it transfers it.

Do not use the pump in an explosive atmosphere. Failure to do so will result
in injury or fire.
When shipping from the factory, the motor is set for 100-120V class. Do not
operate with 200-240V power supply voltage. In order to operate with 200-240V
class, the changeover switch in the terminal box must be changed into 200-240V
class as shown in fig.3.4“Changing the voltage class.”
Never touch the rotating section of the motor, shaft or coupling while the
pump is in operation. Failure to do so will result in injury.
Never place combustible materials around the motor or pump. There is a risk
of fire.
Also, do not place objects which block ventilation around the motor. Abnormal
heat generation may result in burns or fire.
Do not touch the motor while the pump is in operation or when the pump is
still hot immediately after it stops. Touching it will result in burns.
Arrange wires correctly in accordance with the “Electrical Equipment
Technical Standard” and “Wiring Regulations.” Incorrect wiring may result
in fire.
