Installing in a vacuum system
➨ Assemble the cold trap at a stand mounting.
➨ Connect the cold trap to the vacuum pump and the recipi-
ent.
☞ Prevent mechanical stress at the connection due to tensile
force or vibrations.
➨ Close the condensate drain screw.
During operation
➨ Fill coolant into the coolant chamber.
☞ Check coolant level at appropriate intervals.
➨ Switch on the vacuum pump immediately after filling in the coolant.
☞ The coolant consumption is increased if the condensate chamber is not evacu-
ated
☞ The lifetime of the coolant may be restricted due to icing in case of high operating
pressures.
➨ Vent the cold trap for de-icing or draining of condensate.
➨ Drain condensate via the condensate drain screw. Vent the system prior to open-
ing the drain screw!
☞ Wait until the condensate has liquidised, if necessary.
☞ Ensure that condensate drain tubing and collecting equipment are chemically re-
sistant against the condensate.
☞ Remove the cold trap from the vacuum installation to drain the coolant if neces-
sary.
Use and operation
Maintenance and cleaning
☞ The cold trap is maintenance-free.
☞ Clean the cold trap, coolant chamber and the condensate chamber using water
or solvent. Ensure compatibility of the wetted parts!
☞ Comply with applicable regulations when disposing of solvents.
