2 Safety
2.1 Intended use
The Vacuum Pump V-100 has been designed and built as an item of laboratory
equipment. Its intended use is the evacuation of laboratory apparatus. This is done by
means of a PTFE-membrane pump – with or without regulation by a vacuum con-
troller.
PTFE-membrane pumps are used primarily for the following applications:
Evacuating distillation apparatus, in particular rotary evaporators (Rotavapor®)
Vacuum filtration
Vacuum-drying cabinets
Drying kilns
2.2 Use other than that intended
Use of any kind other than that referred to and any application that does not comply
with the technical specifications constitutes use other than that intended. The opera-
tor alone is liable for any damage brought about by use of the device in a manner
other than that intended.
In particular, the following applications are not permissible:
Use in areas which require explosion-safe apparatus.
Pumping of liquids and solid particles.
Processing samples which could be caused to explode or ignite by impact, friction,
heat or sparks (e.g. explosives).
Use for analysis (e.g. Kjeldahl).
Generation of positive pressure (pressurizing a system).
Operation at ambient temperatures >40 °C.
2.3 Staff qualification
Unqualified persons are unable to identify risks and are therefore exposed to greater
dangers.
The device may only be operated by suitably qualified laboratory staff.
These operating instructions are aimed at the following target groups:
Users
Users are persons that meet the following criteria:
They have been instructed in the use of the device.
They are familiar with the contents of these operating instructions and the applica-
ble safety regulations and apply them.
They are able on the basis of their training or professional experience to assess
the risks associated with the use of the device.

Operator
The operator (generally the laboratory manager) is responsible for the following as-
pects:
The device must be correctly installed, commissioned, operated and serviced.
Only suitably qualified staff may be assigned the task of performing the operations
described in these operating instructions.
The staff must comply with the locally applicable requirements and regulations for
safe and hazard-conscious working practices.
Safety-related incidents that occur while using the device should be reported to the
manufacturer ([email protected]).
BUCHI service technicians
Service technicians authorized by BUCHI have attended special training courses and
are authorized by BÜCHILabortechnikAG to carry out special servicing and repair
measures.

The device has been developed and manufactured using the latest technological ad-
vances. Nevertheless, risks to persons, property or the environment can arise if the
device is used incorrectly.
Appropriate warnings in this manual serve to alert the user to these residual dangers.
2.4.1 Dangerous vapors
Distillation can produce dangerous vapors that are capable of causing life-threatening
toxic effects.
uDo not inhale any vapors produced during distillation.
uEnsure that vapors are removed immediately by a suitable fume hood.
uOnly use the device in well ventilated areas.
uIf vapors escape from joints or connections, check the seals concerned and re-
place them if necessary.
uDo not distill any unknown fluids.
uObserve the safety data sheets for all fluids used.
2.4.2 Faults during operation
If a device is damaged, sharp edges or exposed electrical wires can cause injuries.
uRegularly check device for visible damage.
uIf faults occur, switch off the device immediately, unplug the power cord and in-
form the operator.
uDo not continue to use devices that are damaged.
2.5 Personal protective equipment
Depending on the application, hazards due to heat and/or corrosive chemicals may
arise.
uAlways wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as safety goggles,
protective clothing and gloves.
uMake sure that the personal protective equipment meets the requirements of the
safety data sheets for all chemicals used.
2.6 Modifications
Unauthorized modifications may impair safety and lead to accidents.
BÜCHI Labortechnik AG Safety | 2

3 Product description
3.1 Description of function
The Vacuum Pump V-100 is intended for evacuating laboratory apparatus to a termi-
nal vacuum of 10mbar (±2mbar).
Once switched on, the V-100 runs in continuous mode unless it is connected to the
Interface I-100 unit. In unregulated continuous mode, the pump runs at a maximum
speed of 1280 rpm and generates a terminal vacuum of 10mbar (±2mbar). The time
required for evacuation depends on the size (volume) of the vessel.
After 1 hour of operation, the V-100 switches automatically to ECO mode. In ECO
mode, the V-100 runs at 70% capacity but still generates the same terminal vacuum
of 10mbar (±2mbar).
The pump can be operated either as a standalone device or combined with optional
accessories (see Chapter3.3 "Specifications supplied", page14).
