Preface
This manual provides the information you need to successfully perform tip seal replacement on your
Vacuum Technologies TriScrollTM Dry Vacuum Pump. Tip seal replacement is generally is
recommended when the pump base pressure has risen to an unacceptably high level for your
application. If you have questions that are not addressed in this manual, please contact the nearest
Vacuum Technologies service facility listed on the rear cover of this manual.

The following format is used in this manual to call attention to hazards:
Maintenance personnel must be aware of all hazards associated with this equipment. They must
know how to recognize hazardous and potentially hazardous conditions, and know how to avoid
them. The consequences of work performed by unskilled or improperly trained maintenance personnel,
or careless operation of the equipment employed in the specified maintenance procedures can be
serious. Every maintenance person must read and thoroughly understand the materials discussed and
the instructions provided in this manual, as well as any additional information provided by Vacuum
Tec hnolo gie s.
WARNING The warning messages are for attracting

ular procedure or practice which, if not

All warnings and cautions must be read carefully, fully understood, and strictly observed. Consult local,
state/province, and national agencies regarding specific requirements and regulations. Address any
safety, operation, and/or maintenance questions to the nearest Vacuum Technologies location.
WARNING Disconnect power from the
TriScroll 600 before performing any
maintenance procedure.
Allow the pump to cool before perform-
ing any maintenance procedure.
Approximate cool-down time is one to
two hours.
CAUTION Wipe all O-rings clean with a lint-free
cloth before installation to ensure that
no foreign matter is present to impair
the seal.
Do not use alcohol, methanol or other
solvents on O-rings. To do so causes
deterioration and reduces their ability to
hold a vacuum.
If applicable, apply a small amount of
Krytox®GPL 224 grease and wipe the
O-rings “shiny” dry.
NOTE Vacuum Technologies recommends
replacing all O-rings during routine
maintenance or during any mainte-
nance procedure requiring that O-rings
be removed.
WARNING The TriScroll 600 weighs 32 kg (70 lbs).
To avoid injury, use proper lifting
techniques when moving the pump.
