VACUUBRAND equipment bearing mark (see rating plate)
The classication according to ATEX is only valid for the inner part (wetted part, pumped gas or vapor)
of the equipment. The equipment is not suitable for use in external, potentially explosive atmospheres
(environment).
The overall category of the equipment depends on the connected components. If the connected compo-
nents do not comply with the classication of the VACUUBRAND equipment, the specied category of
the VACUUBRAND equipment is no longer valid.
Vacuum pumps and vacuum gauges in category 3 are intended for connection to equipment in which
during normal operation explosive atmospheres caused by gases, vapors or mists normally don’t occur;
or, if they do occur, are likely to do so only infrequently and for a short period only.
Equipment in this category ensures the requisite level of protection during normal operation.
The use of gas ballast or the operation of venting valves is only permitted if thereby explosive atmo-
spheres normally don’t occur in the interior of the equipment or, if they do occur, are likely to do so only
infrequently and for a short period.
The equipment is marked with ”X” (according to EN 13463-1), i.e., restrictions of the operation condi-
tions:
• The equipment is designated for a low degree of mechanical stress and has to be installed in a way
so that it cannot be damaged from outside.
Pumping units have to be installed so that they are protected against shocks from the outside and
against glass splinters in the event of breakage (implosion).
• The equipment is designated for an ambient and gas inlet temperature during operation of +10 to
+40°C. Never exceed these ambient and gas inlet temperatures. If pumping / measuring gases
which are not potentially explosive, extended gas inlet temperatures are permissible. See instruc-
tions for use, section “Gas inlet temperatures” or “Technical data”
After any intervention at the equipment (e.g., repair / maintenance) the ultimate vacuum of the pump
has to be checked. Only if the pump achieves its specied ultimate vacuum is the pump’s leak rate low
enough to ensure that no explosive atmospheres will occur in the interior of the equipment.
After any intervention at the vacuum sensor, the leak rate of the equipment has to be checked.
Attention: This manual is not available in all languages of the
EU. The user must not operate the device if he does not under-

Prior to operation
➨ Connect gauge head by means of the VACUU•BUS line to a controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000
or VNC 2 or to a vacuum gauge DCP 3000.
➨Connect the gauge head to the vacuum chamber by means of the small ange connection or a hose
connection. Avoid contamination (oil/oil mist) of the gauge head when generating the vacuum with an
oil-sealed vacuum pump.
☞ Do not mount the gauge head directly at the oil-sealed pump but close to the vacuum process. The
diameter of the vacuum lines should be as large as possible.
☞ Inside a vacuum system where evaporation occurs (e.g., rotary evaporator) the vacuum is not uni-
form (e.g., a condenser acts as pump or the vacuum in the pipeline is lower than in the system).
Therefore choose carefully the position where to connect the gauge head.
☞ Condensate and deposits at the gauge head falsify the measurement result.
☞ If residues occur or when working with aggressive or condensable substances, install a gas washing
bottle in front of the pressure gauge head.
☞Mount the gauge head in such a position that condensate can not ow into it.
☞ If necessary, clean the gauge head.
VACUU•BUS
Readout of the pressure transducer via VACUU•BUS line by the controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000
or VNC 2 or by the vacuum gauge DCP 3000 using VACUU•BUS protocol, see instructions for use of
vacuum controllers VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 or VNC 2 or of vacuum gauge DCP 3000. Maximum
cable length inside buildings: 30 m. Extension cable VACUU•BUS 2 m: order-no. 20612552.
With the devices VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 and DCP 3000 it is possible to adjust and to congure
the pressure transducer VSK 3000. A conguration of the VSK 3000 e.g., to a different VACUU•BUS
address, is required if more than one pressure transducer are connected to a VACUU·SELECT, CVC
3000 or DCP 3000.

Pressure transducer VSP 3000
Operation principle VSP 3000
The pressure transducer VSP 3000 relies on the fact that the thermal conductivity of the residual gas
in the vacuum chamber is a measure for the gas pressure. The thermal conductivity of gases is propor-
tional to the pressure within a certain range and is related to the molecular mass.
The thermal conductivity of gases and vapours varies with their molecular mass. Therefore the pressure
measurement is dependent on the gas type. The pressure transducer has been adjusted for air at the
factory.
☞ Pressure of gases with similar mass, such as O2 or CO, can be read off directly within the uncertainty
of the measurement.
☞ With gases of lower or higher mass (H2, He, Ar, CO2) it is recommended to readjust the VSP 3000
using the gas to be measured.
General information on handling
The pressure transducer VSP 3000 which has been developed particularly for use in chemical laborato-
ries is a pressure sensor working in the ne vacuum range.
Allow the VSP 3000 a period of approx. 20 minutes to warm up and to meet its specications. Even
in case of the controller or vacuum gauge being switched off, the VSP 3000 stays ready for operation.
To de-energize the pressure transducer, unplug either its VACUU•BUS line or the power supply of the
controller or vacuum gauge.
The interior of the pressure transducer is highly sensitive! Do not insert ngers or
tools into the measuring chamber.
Prior to operation
➨ Connect gauge head by means of the VACUU•BUS line to a controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000
or to a vacuum gauge DCP 3000.
➨Connect the gauge head to the vacuum chamber by means of the small ange connection or a hose
connection. Avoid contamination (oil/oil mist) of the gauge head when generating the vacuum with an
oil-sealed vacuum pump.
☞ Do not mount the gauge head directly at the oil-sealed pump but close to the vacuum process. The
diameter of the vacuum lines should be as large as possible.
☞ Inside a vacuum system where evaporation occurs (e.g., rotary evaporator) the vacuum is not uni-
form (e.g., a condenser acts as pump or the vacuum in the pipeline is lower than in the system).
Therefore choose carefully the position where to connect the gauge head.
☞ Condensate and deposits at the gauge head falsify the measurement result.
☞ If residues occur or when working with aggressive or condensable substances, install a gas washing
bottle in front of the pressure gauge head.
☞Mount the gauge head in such a position that condensate can not ow into it.
☞ If necessary, clean the pressure transducer.
Recommended orientation: Vertically with vacuum connection pointing downwards. If mounting the
VSP 3000 in any other orientation, a readjustment is recommended.
VACUU•BUS
Readout of the pressure transducer via VACUU•BUS line by he controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000
or by the vacuum gauge DCP 3000 using VACUU•BUS protocol, see instructions for use of vacuum
controllers VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 of vacuum gauge DCP 3000. Maximum cable length inside
buildings: 30 m. Extension cable VACUU•BUS 2 m: order-no. 20612552.

Cleaning the pressure transducer
Adjustment of the pressure transducer
For adjusting the pressure transducer, either a vacuum controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 or a
vacuum gauge DCP 3000 is required,
Depending on operation conditions, accuracy requirements and the type of application, an inspection
and a readjustment may be necessary. It may also be required to readjust the pressure transducer after
it has been cleaned, see the manual of the vacuum controller VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 or of the
vacuum gauge DCP 3000 for instructions on adjustment. Download the latest version at www.vacu-
ubrand.com.
Attention: Never use a spiky or sharp-edged tool to clean the pressure transducer.
VSK 3000: Never touch the ceramic diaphragm at the back of the measuring cham-
ber with hard objects!
VSP 3000: The interior of the pressure transducer is highly sensitive! Do not insert
ngers or tools into the measuring chamber.
Clean a contaminated pressure transducer as follows:
➨Fill the measuring chamber with a solvent (e.g., benzene) and allow sufcient cleaning time. Observe
all regulations concerning usage and disposal of solvents!
➨Drain the solvent and dispose of in accordance with regulations, repeat cleaning if necessary.
➨Rinse the measuring chamber several times with alcohol in order to remove all solvent residues.
➨Allow the pressure transducer to dry.
➨Readjust the pressure transducer if necessary.
NOTICE
With the devices VACUU·SELECT, CVC 3000 and DCP 3000 it is possible to adjust and to congure
the pressure transducer VSP 3000. A conguration of the VSP 3000 e.g., to a different VACUU•BUS
address, is required if more than one pressure transducer are connected to a VACUU·SELECT, CVC
3000 or DCP 3000.
Additional instructions for use regarding the conguration of pressure transducers or other
VACUU•BUS components are available upon request.

In many cases, the components must be cleaned in the factory prior to repair.
For cleaning we use an environmentally friendly water based process. Unfortunately
the combined attack of elevated temperature, cleaning agent, ultrasonic treatment
and mechanical stress (from pressurised water) may result in damage to the paint.
Please mark in the health and safety clearance form if you wish a repaint at your
expense just in case such a damage should occur. We will also replace parts for cos-
metic reasons at your request and at your expense.
Before returning the device
Pack the device properly, if necessary, please order original packaging materials at
your costs.
Mark the package completely
Enclose the completed health and safety clearance form.
Notify the carrier of any possible contamination if required.
Scrapping and waste disposal
Dispose of the equipment and any components removed from it safely in accordance
with all local and national safety and environmental requirements. Particular care
must be taken with components and waste oil which have been contaminated with
dangerous substances from your processes. Do not incinerate uoroelastomer seals
and O-rings. You may authorize us to dispose of the equipment at your expense.
Otherwise we return the device at your expense.
