The following format is used in this manual to call attention to hazards:
WARNING The warning messages are for attracting
the attention of the operator to a particular procedure or practice which, if not
followed correctly, could lead to serious
injury.
CAUTIONThe caution messages are displayed
before procedures, which if not followed, could cause damage to the
equipment.
NOTEThe notes contain important informa-
tion taken from the text.
DRAFT 2/10/05
Maintenance personnel must be aware of all hazards associated with this equipment. They must
know how to recognize hazardous and potentially hazardous conditions, and know how to avoid
them. The consequences of work performed by unskilled or improperly trained maintenance personnel,
or careless operation of the equipment employed in the specified maintenance procedures can be
serious. Every maintenance person must read and thoroughly understand the materials discussed and
the instructions provided in this manual, as well as any additional information provided by Vacuum

All warnings and cautions must be read carefully, fully understood, and strictly observed. Consult local,
state/province, and national agencies regarding specific requirements and regulations. Address any
safety, operation, and/or maintenance questions to the nearest Vacuum Technologies location.
WARNING Disconnect power from the
Tri S croll 600 befo re performing any
maintenance procedure.
Allow the pump to cool before performing any maintenance procedure.
Approximate cool-down time is one to
two hours.
CAUTIONWipe all O-rings clean with a lint-free
cloth before installation to ensure that
no foreign matter is present to impair
the seal.
Do not use alcohol, methanol or other
solvents on O-rings. To do so causes
deterioration and reduces their ability to

General Information
Vacuum Tech nologi es TriScro ll 600 serie s pumps wi ll pr ov id e years of tro uble-fr ee ser vi ce if
maintenance procedures and intervals are observed. Bearing grease replenishment and tip seal
replacement is recommended when the pump base pressure rises to an unacceptably high level for
your application. Replace bearings, rotary seals and O-rings if the pump bearings exhibit humming or
grinding noises. Main bearing life may be shortened if your application requires the pumping of high
quantities of water vapor. Use bearing purge to keep this water from impacting bearing life.
Required Equipment
❑ Tip Seal Replacement Kit: PTSS0600TS (“Tip Seal Replacement Kit” on page 2)
❑ Tip Seal Tool Kit: PTSTSTKIT (“Tip Seal Tool Kit” on page 3; customer can supply metric Allen
wrench set and chisel).
❑ Vacuum Measu ri ng Gauge : Capable of measuring pressures of 5 to 20 mTorr with an accuracy
of ± 1 mTorr. A capacitance manometer or Pirani gauge is recommended.

Put the Pump Back into Service
The TriScroll 600 pump can be placed into service immediately after maintenance is complete.
However, 24 hours of run time is required before base pressure of 7 mTorr can be achieved.
NOTEThe 24 hour run time does not have to
be continuous. If your application
requires a low base pressure, it is wise
to run the pump for the 24-hour period
for optimum performance.
