About this manual
Purpose and target audience
This manual, together with the operating manual for the MEMMERT vacuum oven, describes
how to use and put into operation the MEMMERT pump module. Pump modules can be
purchased with or without a pre-installed vacuum pump.
The manual contains the original maintenance and operating manual for the membrane vacuum pump, which may have been installed, from the company KNF.
The pump module may only be used in combination with the MEMMERT vacuum oven VO or
VOcool. All information in terms of safety instructions, assembly, function, transport, putting
into operation, troubleshooting, maintenance and decommissioning/disposal can be found in
the operating manual for the vacuum oven VO.
This manual is intended for use by trained personnel of the owner, who have the task of operating and/or maintaining the respective appliance. If you are asked to work on the appliance,
read this manual carefully before starting.
Familiarise yourself with the safety regulations. Only perform work that is described in this
manual. If there is something you do not understand, or certain information is missing, ask
your manager or contact the manufacturer. Do not do anything without authorisation.
Other documents to be observed as applicable:
► The operating manual for the MEMMERT vacuum oven VO

Safety regulations
1. Safety regulations
1.1 Product safety and dangers
The appliances described in this manual are technically sophisticated, manufactured using
high-quality materials and subject to many hours of testing in the factory. They reflect the
state of the art and comply with recognised technical safety regulations. However, there are
still risks involved, even when the appliances are used as intended. These are described below.
WARNING
After removing covers, live parts may be exposed. Touching these can lead to an
electric shock. Disconnect the mains plug before removing any covers. Work on the
electrical system must only be performed by qualified electricians.
WARNING
Toxic gases or vapours may be produced in certain applications. These can escape
from the vacuum pump into the room. This can injure people nearby. The appliance
may only be used for such applications if a suction is attached to the vacuum
pump used, which reliably keeps toxic gases or vapours away from people. Observe the respective national regulations for occupational safety and environmental protection.
NOTICE
The operating manual of the MEMMERT vacuum oven contains important information and instructions how to use the pump module. Follow all possible information
from the related operating manual of the vacuum oven exactly.

2. Use
2.1. Proper use
The pumps are exclusively intended for transferring gases and vapors.
Owner’s responsibility
conditions
transferred medium
Only install and operate the pumps under the operating parameters
and conditions described in Chapter 4. Technical Data.
Make sure that the installation location is dry and the pump is protected against rain, splash, hose and drip water as well as other
pollutions.
The gas-tightness of the connections between the application
pipes and the pump (or the pump connection) must be checked
regularly; with leaky connections, there is a danger that hazardous
gases or vapors may escape from the pump system.
Before using a medium, check whether the medium can be transferred danger-free in the specific application case.
Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the materials of
the pump head, diaphragm and valves with the medium.
Only transfer gases which remain stable under the pressures and
temperatures occurring in the pump.
Laboratory equipment or additional components connected to a
vacuum pump system have to be suitable for use with the pneumatic capabilities of the pump. (see Chapter 4. Technical Data).
