What it should look like:
How To Hook Up The SPD131DDA SpeedVac
1. Unpack unit from the box and verify that all the parts match packing list.
2. Read instruction manual carefully! If assistance is required, contact Customer Service.
3. If the unit is part of a larger system, use the vacuum tubing supplied to hook up unit (See Figure 4).
4. Vacuum clamps must be put on vacuum ports of pump and SPD unit (See item 8 on Figure 2 and
Figure 4).
5. If the unit is being connected to an existing system, attach vacuum tubing to various components as
illustrated above and in Appendix 1.
CAUTION - Cold trap should be in line between the vacuum source
and the SPD Unit.

Description of Control Panel
1. PRE-HEAT - use to pre-heat chamber to 45 °C prior to beginning or between runs.
Once run is initiated the pre-heat stops.
2. RC ON/OFF - Use to add radiant heat to chamber. Manually activate by pressing
ON/OFF at any point during run. Will activate as long as there is time left on the
heat timer. Will turn off when heat timer=0.00
3. SELECT - Press this button to select the parameters to be modified. Selection is
from left to right. GREEN light indicates the parameter to be modified.
4. MODIFY SET POINTS UP/DOWN - Modifies selected parameter.
5. VACUUM SET - (VACUUM CONTROLLER) - Selects either “Level” or “Ramp” in
the VAC display.
Level: Allows users to select a pre-set vacuum level. Once this level is obtained,
the microprocessor will regulate and maintain this vacuum level. The
vacuum level can be set from 20 torr to 100 mtorr.
Ramp:The rate at which vacuum is achieved can be set for preventing bumping.
5 adjustable levels can be set as required depending upon your solvent.
Setting Vacuum Rate (approximate
)
5 70 torr/min (Maximum setting)
4 50 torr/min
3 40 torr/min
2 30 torr/min
1 5 torr/min
6. AUTO RUN - Starts an ‘Automated’ run.
7. MANUAL RUN - Starts a “Manual” run.
8. STOP - Terminates “Manual” or “Auto” run.
9. VIEW - Press to view. Displays preset parameters when pressed during a run.
10. TEMPERATURE DISPLAY - Indicates set temperature or actual temperature
during a run in
°C.
4
11. TIME DISPLAYS - Indicates heat timer or run timer set-points. In the
process of a run it indicates elapsed time or time left. Set from
0.01 [1 min.] to 9.59 [9 hours, 59 minutes] or “CCC” [continuous].
12. VACUUM PRESSURE DISPLAY - Displays vacuum level or ramp.
Chamber vacuum is displayed in torrs or millitorrs by shifting a decimal point.
“Hpr.” represents atmospheric pressure. No decimal point
indicates microns. Ramp can be set to five (5) adjustable levels.
NOTE - The unit will sound an audible beep, every time a button is pressed.
EXAMPLE OF A MANUAL RUN
1. Connect the unit to its required voltage.
2. The cover lock disengages, allowing the top cover to be opened.
The display lights up, showing the following default values:
Temperature: 45
°C in RED
RunTime: 2.00 HRS. in GREEN
Vacuum Pressure: 01.0 in AMBER
3. Using the “SELECT” button and the up/down keys, setTEMPERATURE
between 45
°C and 80 °C, or “no”, for no heat.
4. Using the “SELECT” button and the up/down keys select and modif
“HEATTIME” to between 0.01 and 9.59 hours or CCC (for continual
heating). When the heat timer expires, the heater will shut off, no
matter what the temperature setpoint reads (except if CCC).
5. Select Run Time: Since this a manual run no time adjustment is needed.
6. To select a VACUUM LEVEL, press “VACUUM SET” to illuminate LEVEL
and use th up/down keys to set vacuum to desired level. To select a
vacuum ramp rate, press “Vacuum Set” to illuminate RAMP and use the
up/down keys to set a ramp rate (5=highest, 1=lowest).
7. Place the sample tubes in the rotor and ensure that the load is balanced.
Secure rotor with the supplied knob. Close cover.
8. Pre-heat may be selected at this time, to warm chamber to 45
°C.
9. Press the “MANUAL RUN” button.The cover locks and rotor starts
turning. The decimal point blinks and the “RUN TIME” display counts up.
The temperature rises to the set temperature. The “HEAT TIME” will count
down and vacuum will be applied to the chamber.The vacuum level
begins falling.
NOTE: If the cover is not closed, the display will show “Lid” and the run
will not start.
5
10. Press R/C for radiant chamber heat. Press at any time to turn OFF and ON.
(As long as there is time left in the heat timer).
11. To end the manual run, press “STOP” button.The display will show “End”, the
valves will click, isolating the chamber from the vacuum pump and also allowing
air to bleed into the chamber.
12. After the rotor stops spinning, the cover lock disengages and the display reverts
to last set parameters, and the unit will sound several audible beeps.
13. Open the cover and remove samples.
GENERAL:
press “VIEW” button and “SELECT”. The display will revert temporarily to set points.
During the run, display shows actual parameters. To check set parameters
EXAMPLE OF AN AUTO RUN
1. Refer to the “MANUAL RUN” section for start up.
2. To execute an AUTO “TIMED” RUN:
a) Use “SELECT” button and the up/down keys to select and modify
“TEMPERATURE, “HEATTIME, “RUN TIME” parameters. RUN and
HEATTIME can be set from 0.01 to 9.59 hours (HEATTIME also has
“CCC” for continuous use).
b) To set a VACUUM LEVEL, press “VACUUM SET” to illuminate
LEVEL up/down keys to set vacuum to desired level.
To select a vacuum ramp rate, press “Vacuum Set” to illuminate
RAMP and use the up/down keys to set a ramp rate (5=highest,
1=lowest).
3. Place the sample tubes in rotor so load is balanced. Secure rotor with
supplied knob. Close cover.
a) Press “AUTO RUN” button to start the run.The cover locks and the
rotor starts spinning.The time display is counting down in 1 minute
Intervals and the decimal point blinks. The heat time is counting
down (use select button to view “HEAT TIME”). The temperature
rises in 1
begins decrementing down from “HPr” (atmospheric pressure),
after both SAV valves actuate, applying vacuum to the chamber.
b) The vacuum display will indicate vacuum pressure in the chamber.
NOTE: If the cover is not closed, the display will show “Lid” and
the run will not start.

c) Press R/C for radiant chamber heat. Press at any time to turn OFF and
ON. (As long as there is time left in the heat timer).
d) Once the time decrements to 0.00 HRS. the run will automatically stop,
the display will show “End”,the SAV valves will click, also allowing air to
bleed into the chamber.
e) After the rotor stops spinning, the cover unlocks and the display reverts
to last set parameters, and the UNIT will sound several audible beeps.
f) Open the cover and remove samples.
