Only Leybonol-LVO-310 (cat. no. L31001) must be used in the TIVAC D2,5E.
Pumping condensable gases and steams: When pumping test sample water
vapour that is inside the test object can attain to the forepump. With the water
vapor that is in the air - especially in humid areas or when using humid or wet test
samples - the acceptable compatibility of water vapor or capacity of water vapor
respectively can be exceeded.
The steam in the oil of the pump condenses when the water vapor rises over the
acceptable value. So the attribute of the oil changes and danger of corrosion
occurs for the pump.
While using the leak detector with condensable gases and steams the oil of the
forepump has to be controlled regularly. So you can recognize a condensation of
water vapor in the pump. Usually the oil is light and lucent. When water vapor is

inside it gets blear and milky at operating state temperature.
When turning the pump off water vapor condensates and raises the part of water in
the oil.
The leak detector must not directly be switched off after the process, in which condensable gases or steams are pumped, is finished. It must be running (at least 20
minutes) with opened gas ballast valve until the oil of the pump is freed from
detached steam.
When not taking care of this instruction there can be a corrosion within the pump,
which will not be covered by our warranty.
The height of the oil of the pump has to be controlled regularly.
The normal intervals of changing the oil from the producer have to be taken care of.

Definition of Terms
The range of the preamplifier and the vacuum ranges are selected automatically.
The auto ranging feature of the PHOENIX L300i covers the entire range or leak
rates depending on the selected operating mode. Not only the leak rate signal, but
also the pressure in the test sample (inlet pressure P1) and the fore vacuum pres
sure (P2) are used for control purposes. Range switching between the main ranges
is performed via valves. Fine range switching within the main ranges is imple
mented by switching over the gain factor of the preamplifier.

The PHOENIX L300i is a leak detector for helium or hydrogen. This instrument may
be used to detect the location and the size of leaks on objects under test in two dif
ferent ways:
When the test sample has been evacuated first and is sprayed with helium on the
outside. It is required that a vacuum connection is provided between the PHOENIX
L300i and the test sample (vacuum mode).
or
when a helium overpressure is provided in the test sample and the test sample is
searched from the outside with a sniffer probe which is attached to the inlet port
(sniffer mode).

1.1 Design and Function
The PHOENIX L300i basically is a helium leak detector for vacuum applications, i.e.
the part under test is evacuated while the test is performed. The vacuum is
achieved with a pumping system that is part of the PHOENIX L300i. In addition the
vacuum can be generated by pumps which are set up in parallel to the PHOENIX
L300i.
The PHOENIX L300i MODUL needs a fore vacuum pump, dry or wet version, to be
connected because this unit has no internal roughing pump. The connection
(DN25 KF) is on the side or under the bottom of the PHOENIX L300i MODUL (
7).

The mass spectrometer (MS) is mainly composed of the ion source with cathode,
the magnetic separator and the ion collector.
Gas molecules getting into the mass spectrometer are ionized by the ion source.
These positively charged particles are accelerated into the magnetic field following
a circular path, the radius of which depends on the mass-to-charge ratio of the
ions. When mass 4 is selected (Default setting) only helium ions can pass this filter
and reach the ion collector where the stream of the ions is measured as an electri

For operation the mass spectrometer requires a vacuum level in the range of 1·10

mbar and lower. This pressure is provided by the turbo molecular pump which in
turn is backed up by a fore vacuum pump.
Besides maintaining the pressure in the mass spectrometer the pump system is
used to evacuate the test parts. It is made sure that the pressure in the mass spec
trometer is low enough under all circumstances. The valves V1, V2a, V2b, V4a
control the gas flows when measuring. Valves V3 and V5 are used to vent the sys
tem and the Turbo pump, valve V6 controls the gas ballast function of the fore vacuum pump. Valve V7 opens and closes the internal test leak during calibration.
With the pressure in the test part being lower than ambient pressure sprayed
helium (or Hydrogen as forming gas) can penetrate into the part in case of a leak
age. As soon as the pressure conditions allow it one of the valves to the TMP
opens. Now Helium can penetrate into the mass spectrometer contrary to the
pumping direction of the TMP.

The PHOENIX L300i DRY has a diaphragm pump as fore vacuum pump, making it
suitable for applications where oil sealed systems can not be used. Furthermore
the PHOENIX L300i DRY contains one more valve, the valve 4b. This valve opens
step by step to regulate the inlet pressure into the turbo pump.

1.1.4 Vacuum Method
For the purpose of leak detection on a test sample (vacuum method), the sample
has to be evacuated so that Helium or Hydrogen which is sprayed on to the out
side, can enter through any leaks due to the pressure differential for detection by
the PHOENIX L300i.
Description
-
The test sample is evacuated - START button (Fig 16./10) - by the backing pump
or the external pump. In the case of larger test samples an additional external par
tial flow pump with a corresponding linking valve may be connected in parallel as
required.
Inlet valve V1 is opened so that the evacuation can take place. At the same time all
other valves are closed in order to prevent an unacceptable pressure increase in
the mass spectrometer.
In this context (valve V2a closed) the turbo molecular pump is operated without
being supported by the rotary vane pump. Since generally no gas is pumped out of
the mass spectrometer, p
The condition for the evacuation process described here is maintained until the
inlet pressure p1 has dropped <15
additionally. Possibly present Helium or Hydrogen may now flow upstream against
the pumping direction of the turbo molecular pump into the mass spectrometer
where it is detected. This measurement mode is called GROSS. In this mode, leak
rates down to 10
Since the rotary vane vacuum pump continues to evacuate the test sample via
valves V2a, V2b and V1 the inlet pressure p
sure drops below p1 < 0.2 mbar, the PHOENIX L300i will switch to the FINE mode,
i.e. valve V1and V2b closes and valve V4a opens so that the gas flow enters the
turbo molecular pump at the side. This offer two advantages:

response time is inversely proportional to pumping speed.).
b) The advantages offered by the counter flow principle can still be uti-
lized
In the FINE mode the full sensitivity of the PHOENIX L300i is reached.
Because of the higher base pressure of the diaphragm pump the switching from
GROSS to FINE mode of the PHOENIX L300i DRY is done by the valve V4b. When
the pressure drops below 3,5
mbar the valves V1 and V2b will be close and V4b

Description
opens step by step. When valve V4b is open completely, pressure < 0,1 mbar, V4a
will open also to get the maximum pumping speed. In PRECISION mode the
PHOENIX L300i DRY opens the valve V4b only, with the disadvantage of low
pumping speed but with the highest sensitivity.
When the leak detection process is stopped – STOP-button – all valves except
valve V2a are closed.
Valve V3 is opened during venting of the inlet or test sample.
1.1.5 Partial Flow Method
In the partial flow mode the test sample is additionally evacuated by an auxiliary
pump. Using the optional partial flow pump set offers to the user the following
advantages (PHOENIX L300i
- faster response time
- entry into the measure mode already at an inlet pressure of 1000 mbar
- faster venting of large test objects
and PHOENIX L300i MODUL:
Alternatively to a partial flow pump set an external auxiliary pump may also be connected via a tee, this option is possible for the PHOENIX L300i dry and PHOENIX
L300i MODUL also. However, in such a case the PHOENIX L300i will not be able to
make measurements already at an inlet pressure of 1000
1.1.6 Sniffer Mode
The PHOENIX L300i may simply be converted into a sniffer leak detector via the
rugged sniffer line (Cat. No. 252003)
For this the KF flange of the sniffer line is connected to the inlet flange (Fig. 1/1) and
the sniffer mode is selected through menu mode. After pressing START, the inlet

Partial Flow System (PHOENIX L300i and PHOENIX L300i
In the partial flow mode the test sample is additionally evacuated by an auxiliary
pump. Using the optional partial flow pump set offers to the user the following
advantages:
- faster response time
- entry into the measurement mode already at an inlet pressure of 1000 mbar
- faster venting of large test objects
The partial flow system consists of the components partial flow valve block, right
angle valve DN 25 KF, control cable and vacuum hose with flange connections.
The partial flow valve block with the right angle valve has to be connected to the
inlet flange of the PHOENIX L300i. Connect the control cable to the Option port
and the vacuum hose to the auxiliary pump. The PHOENIX L300i has to be config
urated as described in chapter.
For further detailed information please refer to operating instructions GA 10.277

Installation
2 Installation
2.1 Placement
Unpack the PHOENIX L300i immediately after delivery, even if it will be installed
later on.
Examine the shipping container for any external damage. Completely remove the
packaging materials.
Check the PHOENIX L300i is complete (see Chapter 1.2) and carefully examine the
PHOENIX L300i visually.
If any damage is discovered, report it immediately to the forwarding agent and
insurer. If the damaged part has to be replaced, please contact the orders depart
ment.
Retain the packaging materials in the case of complaints about damage.
2.2 Conforming Utilisation
The PHOENIX L300i is a leak detector for Helium or Hydrogen. This instrument
may be used to detect the location and the size of leaks on objects under test in
two different ways:
-
Ambient temperatures
when the test sample has been evacuated first and is sprayed with helium on the
outside. It is required that a vacuum connection is provided between the PHOENIX
L300i and the test sample (vacuum mode).
or
when a helium overpressure is provided in the test sample and the test sample is
searched from the outside with a sniffer probe which is attached to the inlet port
(sniffer mode).
The PHOENIX L300i is to be used for leak detection only. It must not be used as a
pumping system (esp. pumping aggressive or humid gases.)
The leak detector is not suitable for
- pumping liquids or gases containing dust or particles
- pumping corrosive or reactive gases
2.3 Ambient Conditions
The permissible ambient temperature is between +10°C (50°F) and +40°C (104°F).
The PHOENIX L300i must not be operated in explosive gas atmospheres.
Make sure to avoid dripping water.
Ensure a sufficient air cooling.

Generally the local regulations for electrical connections must be observed.
Before connecting the PHOENIX L300i to the mains you must make sure that the
mains voltage rating of the PHOENIX L300i coincides with the locally available
mains voltage. The instrument must exclusively be connected to a single phase
supply with fuses for installation (Circuit breaker 10A max. according to IEC/EN
60898 with tripping characteristic B).
Only 3-core mains cables having a protection ground conductor must be used.

Operation of the PHOENIX L300i where the ground conductor has been left
unconnected is not permissible. The PHOENIX L300i can be damaged when using
the wrong voltage. The voltage must be in the range 230V (+/- 5%), 115V (+/- 5%)
or 100V (+/- 5%) depending on the version.
The mains voltage rating for the PHOENIX L300i can be read off from the name
plate beneath the mains socket
not be changed.
A separate fuse for each of the mains conductors has been integrated into the
mains switch.
The mains voltage is applied to the instrument via the detachable mains cable
which is supplied with the instrument. A mains socket
purpose at the side of the instrument.
