4.2 Description
The V-VGA and V-VGC have a fi ne micro fi lter on the suction side and on the outlet side an oil and oil mist
separator to return the oil to the oil circulation system. The motor fan provides cooling for the motor and
pump housing. The motor and the pump have a common shaft.
An integral non-return valve prevents the evacuated system from being ventilated after the pump has
stopped and it prevents the feed chamber from being saturated with oil after the system has stopped. This
would lead to oil knocking when the system started up again.
A gas ballast valve (an option with V-VGA) prevents condensation of water vapour in the inside of the pump
when low amounts of steam are sucked in when the pump is at operating temperature.
4.3. Areas of application
These oil-fl ooded rotary vane vacuum pumps V-VGA 4, V-VGA 6, V-VGC 4 and V-VGC 6 are suitable for cre-
ating vacuums. The suction power with unrestricted suction is 4 and 6 m
3 /h at 50 Hz. Data sheets D 146/1
(V-VGA) and D147/1 (V-VGC) show the dependency of the suction power on the inlet pressure.
The models are suitable for evacuating closed systems or for a constant vacuum in the following intake
pressure ranges:
50 Hz
➝ V-VGA: 20 to 500 mbars (abs.) • V-VGC: 2 to 200 mbars (abs.)
60 Hz
➝ V-VGA: 20 to 400 mbars (abs.) • V-VGC: 2 to 150 mbars (abs.)
If operated constantly outside these ranges there is the risk of oil leaking through the outlet. When evacuat-
ing closed systems the volume to be evacuated must be no more than 2% of the nominal pumping capacity
of the vacuum pump.
If the unit is switched on more frequently (at regular intervals of about 10 times an hour) or at
higher ambient temperatures and intake temperatures, the excess temperature limit of the motor
winding and the bearings may be exceeded.Please contact the manufacturer should the unit be
used under such conditions.
If it is installed in the open air the unit must be protected from environmental infl uences, (e.g. by a
protective roof).
