6) Depending upon the type of the backing pump used, oil vapor may
contaminate the inside of the STP pump. Some oil viscosity could cause a
malfunction when there is a strong reverse flow of oil.
Take the following measures to ensure the correct flow of oil:
• Attach a vacuum valve to the middle of the piping between the STP pump
outlet port flange and the backing pump.
• Attach an absorption trap adjacent to the vacuum valve.
Piping at the Inlet Port Flange
Attach the inlet port to the high vacuum side.
Maximum working pressure:
Pressure at the inlet port flange
applicable continuously
1.3×10
-2
Pa [1×10
-4
Torr]
(for natural air cooled)
Piping at the Outlet Port Flange
Attach the outlet port to the inlet port flange of the backing pump
(primary side pump).
Allowable backing pressure:
Pressure at the outlet port flange
applicable continuously
13
Pa [0.1
Torr]
(for natural air cooled)
◇ To attain the ultimate pressure shown in Table 16.1,”Specifications
for the STP Pump,” set the pressure at the outlet port flange to
1.3 Pa (10
-2
Torr) or less.
