Check every motor capacitor regularly by measuring

its capacity and estimating its time in operation. Re-

place old capacitors early enough to prevent a failure in

operation. If an old motor capacitor fails, the capacitor

may get hot. It may even melt or emit a flame, which

could be

dangerous for persons and equipment in

the vicinity. The capacitors have to be replaced by an

electrician.

+

Vent the pump before starting maintenance. Isolate the

pump and other components from the vacuum system.

Allow sufficient cooling of the pump. Drain condensate,

if applicable.

Ensure that

maintenance is done only by suitably trained

and supervised technicians. Ensure that the maintenance

technician is familiar with the safety procedures which re-

late to the products processed by the pumping system.
