*25,4000 MICRONS=1”
Each PLATINUM® pump has been factory tested to guarantee 15 micron* or better and listed CFM
performance. The serial number has been recorded. Complete and mail the Warranty Registration Card within
10 days of purchase to validate your warranty. Or you can register your product on-line at www.jbind.com.
You will be notied of any technical updates.
NOTE Platinum® pumps are not to be used on Ammonia or Lithium Bromide (salt water) systems.
Pump maintenance is the responsibility of the owner.
PLEASE READ THE
“KEEPING THE LIFE IN YOUR PUMP” BOOKLET
SPECIFICATIONS
PUMP MOTOR:
Pump and oil must be above 30°F. Line voltage must be equal to motor nameplate ±10%. Normal operating
temperature is approximately 160°F, which is hot to the touch. Line voltage and ambient conditions will affect this
somewhat. Motor has automatic resetting thermal overload protection. Platinum
will run for extended periods without overheating.

CARING FOR YOUR PUMP
In order to make the best use of your investment, familiarize yourself with the new features and operation
instructions before starting pump. With just routine care your PLATINUM
®
service by following proper maintenance guidelines. PLATINUM
pumps are designed for deep vacuum work
in refrigeration systems only.
IM P O RTAN T: Use oil specically rened for deep vacuum pumps. Using oil not rened for deep vacuum pumps
and/or operation with contaminated oil will void warranty.
®
will give you years of reliable
OIL
Slowly add oil until oil level rises tot he top of the OIL LEVEL line.
Replace oil ll plug.
If oil is too low, you will hear air out of the exhaust. If the oil level is too high,
excess oil will be blown out the exhaust. Pump oil should be changed after
each use. If system is heavily contaminated, oil may have to be changed
several times during evacuation.
After initial ll up of oil, it is best to check oil level with pump running.
AFTER EVACUATION, OIL CONTAINS RUST FORMING WATER AND CORROSIVE ACIDS.
DRAIN IMMEDIATELY WHILE PUMP IS WARM.
CHANGING OIL
To reach deep vacuum, Platinum® pumps need clean, moisture-free oil
throughout evacuation. Care should be taken to avoid contact on skin and
clothing when changing oil. Used oil should be disposed of in leak-proof
corrosive-resistant container.
1 After every evacuation while pump is warm and oil is thin, place pump on level surface
and open oil drain. Oil can be forced from the pump by opening one intake and partially
blocking the exhaust with a cloth while the pump is running. DO NOT operate the pump
for more than 20 seconds using this method.
2
Close drain. Remove oil ll cap and ll to top of OIL LEVEL line with
BLACK GOLD Pump Oil. Replace oil ll cap.
FLUSHING:
If the oil is badly contaminated, ushing may be necessary.
Slowly pour 1/3 - 1/2 cup of BLACK GOLD Pump Oil into the intake connection
while pump is running. Repeat as required until contamination is removed from
oil reservoir, pump rotors, vanes and housing.
Dispose of all oil used in ushing of pump.
IMPORTANT
DO NOT START PUMP BEFORE ADDING OIL
DIGITAL VACUUM GAUGES
DV-22N:
• Reads vacuum in 7 international Units:
Microns, PSIA, InHg, MBars, Pascals,
Tor r, MTorr.
• Digital display with solid state circuitry
+32°F to + 120°F (0°C to 48.9°C)
ambient temperature.
• NIST Traceable
• Solid state design - No adjustment
necessary for temperature
• Automatic power off battery saver
• Saves last vacuum readout after
shutdown
• Low battery indicator
OPERATION
The following procedures will prevent oil from being drawn into the pump cartridge and creating hard start-up.
START-U P:
Open one intake port and isolation valve, close gas ballast valve
and start pump. Make vacuum connections.
Crack gas ballast valve for the rst part of the evacuation
procedure. After pump quiets down from initial volume of air, close
valve and continue evacuating. Failure to close valve will result in
poor pump performance.
SHUT-DOWN:
Close isolation valve and open gas ballast valve
all the way. Continue running pump for 2-3
seconds. With gas ballast valve still opened,
stop pump and then close valve.
Remove hose connections and cap intakes.
