INTRODUCTION The Vmax oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pump system has been designed to give you safe, reliable, trouble-free
service provided some of the basic maintenance guidelines as set out in this manual are followed. Compared to
other vacuum pump systems, the Vmax oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pump system offers the advantages of no
metal-to-metal contact between the impeller and casing. Grease lubricated bearings are mounted external to
the pumping chamber, isolated by mechanical shaft seals. This means that the pump requires no internal
lubrication. However, a vacuum pump is a rotating piece of equipment and operators must exercise good
judgment and follow proper safety procedures to avoid damage to the equipment or personal injury. Please
review and follow all instructions in this manual before attempting to install, start or operate equipment.
SAFETY All vacuum pumps, systems and/or compressors (hereafter referred to as the Product) offered by DEKKER
have been designed and manufactured for safe operation. However, the responsibility for safe operation rests
with those who use and maintain these products. The safety department where the product is installed should
establish a safety program based on OSHA, federal, state, and local codes. It is important that due
consideration be given to hazards which arise from the presence of electrical power, hot liquids, harmful gases,
and rotating equipment. Proper installation and care of protective devices is essential to safe system operation.
These safety procedures are to be used in conjunction with the instructions contained in this manual.
WARNING: DO NOT PUMP OXYGEN or oxygen rich mixtures with these pumps -
EXPLOSION HAZARDS!
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 7
THEORY OF OPERATION The DEKKER Vmax oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pump system includes our high efficiency liquid ring vacuum
pump. The impeller assembly is the only moving part which rotates freely in the casing without metal-to-metal
contact which means no additional lubrication is required. The function of the sealing liquid is to create a liquid
piston action used to produce vacuum and to remove the heat of compression. The seal fluid, hereafter
referred to as oil, in the system circulates in a closed loop passing through an air- or water-cooled heat
exchanger that removes the heat of compression. The discharge separator/reservoir holds the seal fluid and
incorporates the DEKKER DX-5 or DX-7 patented high-efficiency separator arrangement to separate the seal
fluid from the air or gases discharged by the pump. See “Piping and Instrument Diagram” of the Vmax oil-sealed
liquid ring vacuum pump system below.

STORAGE Keep the system in a cool dry environment and close the seal fluid isolation valve as shown on page 17. Plug all
open ports to keep out dirt and foreign objects. Every 2 weeks rotate the impeller by rotating the shaft by
hand 2 ¼ turns.
INITIAL FREIGHT RECEIPT AND INSPECTION Before a system ships from DEKKER, it is thoroughly tested, and will not be released unless it passes our
Quality Control standards. All pumps are thoroughly inspected and are not released unless they pass our
Quality Control standards. Once the product is received and signed for in Good Condition, DEKKER cannot
be held accountable for undiscovered, unclaimed damage that is a result of freight transit. It is the responsibility
of the receiver to thoroughly inspect and test the product for functionality upon delivery. The customer should
take photos of the product as it arrives and send to DEKKER and the freight carrier if there are any issues. The
party who selected the shipper is responsible for filing the freight claim. Failure to report these issues within
the freight carriers’ undiscovered damage window can result in non-acceptance of freight claims. DEKKER does
keep photos of all systems, as shipped, to assist in freight claims. Report any damage immediately to
Key items to inspect:
Is the product received as requested? Are all parts, accessories, and components delivered?
Was the skid or crating received in good condition? Check for cosmetic damage.
Check wiring inside of control panel. Are all wires should be terminated and connections tight? (If
applicable)
Check control panel components. Are they tight on DIN rail and/or other mounts/fasteners?
Are there any leaks or puddles around the pump? Specify hose, piping or housing leak.
System must be given an initial startup test as soon as possible after delivery. This is to ensure that the motor
has not shifted out of alignment during transit as well as to verify that electrical components are functioning
without fault – Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), panel cooling fans,
transducers.
INSTALLATION
Overview The design of the piping system, foundation layout, and plant location are the responsibility of the purchaser.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. and its representatives may offer advice, but cannot assume responsibility
for operation and installation design.
Please consult the factory or a specialist skilled in the design of plant layout, system piping design, and
foundation design. The installer should carefully read this manual before installing the equipment. DEKKER or
your authorized dealer can provide start up assistance in most instances for a fee. Contact DEKKER for
hourly/daily service rates.
Unpacking Upon receipt of pump or system, immediately inspect for signs of damage. Carefully remove packing or crating
from around pump or system. Be sure to keep equipment in upright position.
Lifting Lift the equipment carefully and with weight evenly distributed. DEKKER is not responsible for equipment that
has been damaged through mishandling or dropping.
Location Install the unit in a well ventilated and dust free area. The pump or system should be a minimum distance of 3
feet from surrounding walls to allow for checking fluid level, temperatures, pressures and general servicing.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 9
Mounting The pump or system must be installed on a level surface in the horizontal position. The foundation must be
designed to support the total unit weight, without any settlement or crushing, be rigid and substantial enough
to absorb any equipment vibration, maintain true alignment with any drive mechanism, and must permanently
support the system baseplate at all points. The vacuum system must be leveled and secured with anchor bolts.
Anchor bolts must be of adequate size to withstand the mechanical stresses exerted on it.
Systems 50 HP and larger should also be grouted into position per local codes. The foundation should be
constructed to allow for ¾ to 1-½ inch of grout. The baseplate is set on shims and the grout is poured
between the foundation and the baseplate. To have the required body to support the baseplate, grout should
be at least ¾ inch thick.
The number and location of shims will be determined by the design of the baseplate. Firm support should be
provided at points where weight will be concentrated and at the anchor bolt locations. Use enough, and large
enough, shims to provide rigid support. Baseplates are usually designed with openings to allow pouring grout.
When the baseplate has been shimmed, leveled, and the anchor bolts have been snugly tightened, a dam is
constructed around the foundation to contain the grout. The dam level should be at least ½ inch above the top
surface of the shims. Grout should be poured inside and around the outside of the baseplate and leveled. Allow
the grout to dry for a minimum of 48 hours before tightening the anchor bolts.
Please note that the pump/motor coupling and V-belt units will need to be realigned prior to start-up, with
the exception of monoblock units.
Ventilation Locate the unit in an area with sufficient airflow and accessibility. To prevent excessive ambient temperature
rise, it is imperative to provide adequate ventilation. Cooling is an important aspect of reliable equipment
operation and it is therefore important to install the unit in a reasonably cool area where the temperature does
not exceed 104°F (40°C). For higher ambient temperatures contact the factory.
Typical system operating temperature is between 140°-185°F. Minimum oil temperature should not be below
45°F.

DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 11
All system wiring is performed at the factory if a control panel is supplied and installed on the skid. Check area
classification to ensure all electrical enclosures comply with code. Required customer wiring is minimal, but
should be done by a qualified electrician in compliance with OSHA, National Electric Code and any other
applicable local electrical code concerning switches, fused disconnects, etc. DEKKER includes a wiring diagram
in the control panel for use by the installer. DEKKER recommends a main disconnect switch be fitted between
the vacuum system and the incoming power.
After the electrical wiring connections are completed, check the incoming voltage to make sure the incoming
voltage is the same as the vacuum system voltage. Line voltage should be within the voltage tolerance as
specified on the motor or to local code. Check the system for proper motor rotation. The direction of
rotation is marked by an arrow on the motor or pump housing. Jog the motor by pressing the ON button and
then the OFF button. If the rotation is incorrect, switch any two of the three main power leads (three phase
power) on the contactor inside the control panel. Failure to do so could result in serious equipment damage.
WARNING: Install, ground, and maintain equipment in accordance with the National Electrical
Code and all applicable federal, state and local codes.
WARNING: For NFPA 99 hospital and generator applications, please shut down the vacuum
pumps prior to generator testing. The rapid stop and restart may cause damage to the pump
and/or motor and cause damage to electrical panel and related components.
Pipe Connection and Sizing Before installation, remove all protective inserts on the pump suction and discharge. Piping connected to the
system must be installed without imposing any strain on the system components. Improperly installed piping
can result in misalignment, general operating problems and pump failure. Use flexible connectors where
necessary. Piping must be cleaned of debris before installation.
DEKKER recommends CPVC piping as discharge temps may exceed +170°F. CPVC is rated for 200°F max, and
PVC is only rated for 140°F max. Schedule 40 PVC piping is generally acceptable for the inlet connections.
Inlet Piping Note: Install a temporary screen at the pump inlet flange at first start-up to protect the unit against carryover
of pipe debris and welding slag. The screen must be removed after the initial run-in period.
Inlet piping should be at least the size of the pump inlet. Install the system as close as possible to the process to
minimize losses due to the length of the suction line. If the system has to be installed further away from the
process, be sure the inlet piping is properly sized to minimize the overall line pressure drop. For more
information consult your authorized dealer or contact the factory.
Pump systems operating in parallel on a common manifold must each have a manual or automatic shut-off valve
and a suitable check valve installed in the suction line close to the pump suction flange. This allows each
individual system to be isolated when it is not in operation. The line size of the manifold should be a minimum
equal to the sum of the individual system pipe areas.
Systems are supplied with an inlet check valve as standard. This valve is installed close to the pump suction
flange to prevent back flow of process gas and seal fluid when the pump is stopped.
If the inlet gas pumped contains dust or foreign particles, a suitable 5 micron (or finer) inlet filter should be
installed at the inlet port. For more information consult your authorized dealer or the factory.
If the possibility exists that the pump inlet can become closed during operation it will be essential to install
some type of vacuum relief valve (anti-cavitation valve) so that air can enter the pump inlet. Never run a pump
with a closed suction. This causes hydraulic knock / cavitation and can damage the pump.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 12
Discharge Piping Discharge piping must be at least the size of the separator discharge. Do not discharge the exhaust gases from
the pump system into the area where the system is installed. Vapors pulled over from the process could be
hazardous. Install an exhaust line of at least the same diameter as the discharge connection on top of the
separator reservoir leading outside. See the “Discharge Piping Diagram” as shown below.
For vacuum pump systems operating in parallel on a common discharge, DEKKER recommends the installation
of a suitable check valve close to the separator discharge flange of each unit. Discharge check valves should be
a low differential pressure type with positive shutoff. This will prevent discharge gasses from back flowing to
other systems. When discharging more than one pump in a common discharge line and/or over a long distance,
oversize pipe accordingly.
Discharge Piping Diagram
Cooling Water Piping Water-cooled systems require an adequate supply of cooling water at a maximum of 85°F and a minimum
supply pressure of 20 psig. If the cooling water temperature is higher or available pressure lower, contact your
authorized dealer or the factory.
The cooling water outlet connection of the heat exchanger may be fitted with an optional automatic
temperature control valve, which regulates the cooling water flow rate depending on pump operating
temperature. The valve is preset at the factory. To raise the system operating temperature, turn the valve-
adjusting screw counter-clockwise. To lower operating temperature, turn clockwise. Normal system operating
temperature is between 140°-185°F. Minimum oil temperature should not be below 45°F. The valve will only
open when the system operating temperature is reached.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 13
START-UP PROCEDURES
1 Ensure all shipping plugs and/or paper covers are
removed from system and tagging information is
followed for successful startup.
2 Ensure seal fluid isolation valve is open (NOTE: There
may be more than one valve). This valve is located
below the separator and/or near the y-strainer.
Seal Fluid Isolation Valve
3 Jog the motor briefly and check direction of rotation.
The direction of rotation is marked by an arrow on the
motor or pump housing. If direction is incorrect,
switch any two of the three leads at the power
connection (three phase only). The correct direction of
rotation is clockwise facing the pump from the drive
end and counter-clockwise if viewed from the non-
drive end.
4A Check drive coupling alignment. Angular and parallel
alignment should be within the following chart
allowances (see next page, item 4A.1). Consult the
factory for specific system size alignment. Mono-block
units do not require any field adjustment (motors are
C-face mounted).

4B For units utilizing V-belt drives, make sure the sheaves
are properly installed and aligned before attempting to
tension the drive. The V-belts should be placed over the
sheaves and in the grooves without forcing them over the
sides of the grooves. The tensioning steps below can be
used for all types of V-belts, all cross sections and
number of belts and all types of construction.
Avoid excessive heat (140°F and higher); belt life will
be shortened. Never switch or mix belts from one
groove to another on the sheaves. Do not use belt
dressing. Sheaves should remain free of oil and grease.
When replacing belts install an identical set.
For more specific V-belt tensioning guidelines consult
factory.
Sheave alignment should be checked by placing a straight
edge or tight cord across the sheave faces so that it
touches all four points of contact. Ordinarily, a
misalignment of more than one-half of one degree (one
eighth inch in one foot) will adversely affect belt life.
Improper sheave alignment produces uneven wear on
one side of the belt, causes the belt to roll over in the
sheaves or throws the entire load on one side of the belt,
stretching or breaking the cords on that side.
Tensioning a Drive - General Rules of Tensioning
1. Ideal tension is the lowest tension at which the belt
will not slip under peak load conditions.
2. Check tension frequently during the first 24-48
hours of run-in operation.
3. Over tensioning shortens belt and bearing life.
4. Keep belts free from foreign material which may
cause slip.
5. Make V-Drive inspection on a periodic basis. Tension
belt when slipping. Never apply belt dressing as this
will damage the belt and cause early failure.
6. If the unit is idle for an extended period of time, the
tension on the belts should be removed.
Simple Tensioning Procedure
1. Measure the span length.
2. At the center of the span apply a force
(perpendicular to the span) large enough
to deflect the belt 1/64”, for every inch of
span length. For example, one deflection
of a 100 inch span would be 100/64 or 1-
9/16 inches.
3. Compare the force you have applied with
the values given in Table 4B.1 on the next
page. If the force is between the values for
normal tension, and 1-1/2 times normal
tension, the drive tension should be
satisfactory. A force below the value for
normal tension indicates an under
tensioned drive. If the force exceeds the
value for 1-1/2 times normal tension, the
drive is tighter than it needs to be. 4. After the proper operating tension has
been applied to the belts, double check
the following: A) Parallel position of the
sheave shafts. B) Correct alignment of
sheave grooves.

5 Check fluid level in separator reservoir. The fluid level
should be at the FILL LINE on the sight gauge. If
gauge level is low, do not add oil. Systems are
given a full charge of oil at DEKKER factory. Before
filling, run unit at normal vacuum conditions for a few
minutes, then shut down and fill to correct fluid level.
Note: Fluid level may vary depending on vacuum level.
Deep Vacuum (>25”HgV) requires more oil, but Low
Vacuum (<15”HgV) can blow oil into outer shell. Both
of these conditions will appear as lower oil in the
sight-glass. Refer to Troubleshooting for additional
details.
6 If your system contains an inlet valve in the vacuum
line, set it to approximately 3/4 closed, and start
pump. If valve is not supplied, one should be installed.
Warning: Do not operate pump with suction open
to atmosphere for long periods of time.
Note: Ideal vacuum is > 15”HgV at sea level.
Note: This is an Air Inlet Valve, not an Oil Valve.
7 Run the pump for a few minutes then turn it off.
If unit is equipped with vacuum relief valve, valve is
typically preset at 27”HgV at sea level.
Note: For pump priming capacity, see the
Maintenance Section of this manual, page 22.
However, pumps are primed from the factory.
8 With the pump shut off, check fluid level again. The
fluid level should be at the FILL LINE on the sight
gauge. Add fluid if necessary.
Warning: Never remove the oil fill plug while the
pump is running.
9 Start pump again and check that discharge pressure on
the separator does not exceed 2 psig when operating
under vacuum conditions. A pressure higher than 2
psig is a sign of high back pressure in the discharge
pipe system. Display might show a higher pressure at
start-up at low vacuum (0-10"HgV).
Note: Nominal operation should be less than 2 psig.
10 Check the voltage and motor current. They should be
within the specifications for the motor. Amperage
should be checked at the Overload.
Note: This test should also be performed under
normal system operating conditions.
DANGER: HIGH VOLTAGE!
Lethal shock hazard present.
USE EXTREME CAUTION!
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 18
11 After 15-30 minutes of operation, check pump
operating temperature, which should be in the 140°-
185°F range.
12 Remove temporary inlet screen.
SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES To stop vacuum system follow the procedure as outlined below.
Push the STOP button or turn switch to the OFF position. The inlet check valve will prevent fluid from the
system from flowing back into the inlet manifold.
Note: If inlet piping could be under vacuum for an extended period of time without the pump running, inlet
piping should be vented to atmosphere unless the process requires otherwise.
Note: Close the seal fluid isolation valve and the pump inlet isolation valve during extended periods of storage
or when transporting. See Storage section on page 8 for details. Open valves before starting system.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Before attempting any maintenance such as changing the fluid, disconnect all power from the
system by switching off the main breaker, isolate all energy sources and allow system to cool.
Pump Bearing Lubrication Refer to pump series manual for details.
Motor Bearing Lubrication (where required) For information regarding motor bearing lubrication, refer to the motor maintenance and operation manual.
Inlet Filter (If Installed) Check after first 8 hours of operation. Clean or replace inlet filter element every 1000 to 3000 hours
depending on application or if excessive pressure drop is noticed. In some applications it may be necessary to
clean inlet filter more often. Clean filters by gently knocking off into a dust bin. Brush filter free of debris and
clean with a wet/dry vacuum cleaner. DO NOT USE COMPRESSED AIR TO CLEAN ANY FILTERS!
CAUTION: Be careful not to allow foreign material to fall in the pump suction opening when removing the
filter cartridge. Horizontal filter installation is recommended to prevent this. Filters must be disposed of
properly as they might contain toxic substances carried over from the process.
Seal Fluid The system(s) are shipped with DEKKER's specially formulated Vmaxol seal fluid. These fluids are specifically
designed for use in DEKKER Vmax systems, providing low viscosity, excellent water separating qualities, anti-
foaming and low oxidation. DEKKER recommends that Vmaxol sealing fluids be used for obtaining ultimate
performance from the Vmax vacuum pump system and to preserve the extended 3-year warranty period.
When using Standard Vmaxol it is recommended that the seal fluid be changed every 10,000 hours of
operation. When using Synthetic/Food grade Long-life Vmaxol, seal fluid may be changed every 15,000 hours of
operation. Extreme operating conditions may require more frequent changes.
Oil Change Procedure To change the fluid, first make sure there is no power to the system and the pump is off. We recommend that
the fluid be changed when the system is at operating temperature. CAUTION: Oil will be hot.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 19
To ensure that all seal fluid is removed, drain at all ports labeled below. Failure to service any of these ports
will eventually result in premature failure of the system.
When charging the system with new fluid, make sure that the pump is filled with oil to the shaft centerline
level. Do not fill the pump above the shaft centerline. Starting the pump with oil level above the shaft
centerline may result in shaft or impeller damage or failure. You can add oil by removing the suction or
discharge flange and pouring oil through pump suction or discharge port.
Fill the reservoir to the FILL LINE on the sight gauge. Open the air bleed valve on the heat exchanger to
remove all air from the system. Run the pump for a few minutes, stop and check fluid level again. If required,
add additional fluid to the reservoir. Be sure not to overfill. Unscrew the Brass Push-Lock Fitting, and
check port ‘D’ for excess oil.
Check seal fluid level in the reservoir. A high fluid level could mean a build-up of water in the reservoir, which
should be drained. Since water settles below oil, drain from port ‘C’ until only the oil drains. Check every
500 hours.

Oil Solenoid Valve The oil solenoid valve, if equipped, is located in seal fluid piping near the pump. The valve prevents oil from
filling the pump on shutdown. It is critical that this valve operates properly. If the valve malfunctions in an open
position, oil will flow back into the pump when the system is shut off. This will result in hard starting and
possible equipment damage.
If the valve is stuck in the closed position, poor vacuum performance will result. If the pump is operated for
longer than a minute without oil, internal damage may occur. The condition of the solenoid valve interior will
mirror the condition of the oil reservoir housing. If there is a buildup of sludge, varnish, or particulate in the oil
reservoir, the solenoid valve body may be likewise contaminated.
Seal Fluid Strainer After the first 50 hours of operation, clean the strainer in the seal fluid line. This is done to remove any debris
carried over into the system from the process. Clean and inspect the strainer every 1000-3000 hours
depending on application or if excessive oil discharge temperature (above 185°F) is indicated. An increase in
pump discharge oil temperature is an indication of low oil flow and normally is an indication of strainer
blockage. If cleaning of strainer does not decrease temperature check the seal fluid line for blockage.
Separator Element The separator element(s) is located in the separator reservoir. The purpose of the separator element is to
remove the oil from the discharge air. Replace the element every 10,000 hours or once a year. Earlier
replacement may be necessary when the back pressure is higher than 4 psig. High back pressure could be a
result of contaminates on the separator element due to oil varnish or contaminated inlet gas stream.
Replacement may vary depending on application.
NOTE: Thread-in style filters are installed hand-tight. Do not over-tighten with a wrench.
Separator Element Oil Return Line The separator element oil return lines are 1/8” to 3/8” transparent tubing. The purpose of these lines is to
remove excessive oil build-up from inside the separator and separator element. If excessive smoking or oil mist
is present check the oil return lines for blockage and replace if necessary. Also check that the steel section of
oil return line located on top of the separator reservoir is cut at a 45° angle and is touching the bottom of the
separator element.
Shaft Seals All DEKKER oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pumps are fitted with mechanical shaft seals. Mechanical seals do not
require maintenance unless there is more than a small amount of leakage. To define this we differentiate
between the following:
Weepage: Mechanical seals work by having two flat surfaces pushed together by axial force from the closing
mechanism and by product pressure in the seal chamber. When the seal is in operation, the seal fluid lubricates
the two faces. This thin film of lubrication protects the faces of the seal from heat and excessive wear, but it
can also allow for a small amount of leakage across the seal face. This small leakage is called a “weep”. While a
weep has rather arbitrary limits, it is commonly considered to be a leakage rate of less than one drop of liquid
every minute. Seal weeps are not covered under warranty.
Leakage: A leakage rate of more than one drop per minute is considered to be a “leak”. Seal leakage is
normally a result of a build-up of abrasive particles carried over in the pump suction. These particles cause
excessive wear on the seal faces. Leakage caused by wear and tear is not covered under warranty.
Seal replacement is addressed in the assembly and disassembly instruction for the specific pump model used.
Consult factory for assistance.
Particles and debris that enter seal fluid can work into the sealing faces of the mechanical seals. Any debris
pulled into the pump will mix with the seal fluid.
VMAX systems equipped with mechanical seal scavenger tubing must be monitored for oil flow through the
lines after startup. If oil is present in the scavenger tubing, the seals may be leaking and replacement should be
scheduled.
DEKKER Vacuum Technologies, Inc. / Part No. 9983-0000-S01 Rev. A 23
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE To help ensure trouble free system operation, a basic maintenance schedule consisting of the following system
checks is recommended.
First 8 Hours of Operation Check oil level
Check inlet filter element if installed
Clean strainers and remove temporary inlet screen
Check for water in sight gauge and drain if necessary
Check piping for signs of oil leakage and tighten if necessary
Check belt tension, if applicable
Daily Check oil level
Inspect for leaks
Check for water in sight gauge and drain if necessary
Check piping for signs of oil leakage and tighten if necessary
Check for oil in scavenger tubing. VMAX systems equipped with mechanical seal scavenger tubing
must be monitored for oil flow through the lines after startup. If oil is present in the scavenger tubing,
the seals may be leaking and replacement should be scheduled.
500 Hours of Operation Under normal operating conditions repeat the daily steps above and,
Check inlet filter element if installed
Clean strainers and remove temporary inlet screen
1000 Hours of Operation Check back pressure on separator element; it should not exceed 4 psig. Change separator element if
back pressure exceeds 4 psig. Also, check discharge pipe system for blockage.
Clean or replace inlet filter element.
Remove debris from pump housing, motor fan guard, and heat exchanger.
Applicable to pumps equipped with grease fittings located on each bearing housing. Grease bearings
with a quality #2 lithium grease. Do not over-grease, 3 to 4 pumps with a grease gun is sufficient
under normal conditions.
10,000 Hours of Operation Every 10,000 hours, or annually, change seal fluid. Use DEKKER Vmaxol seal fluid. Life of Standard
Vmaxol is 10,000 hours of operation. Synthetic/Food grade long-life Vmaxol may be changed every
15,000 hours of operation.
Change separator element if back pressure exceeds 4 psig.
Check coupling element for wear. Replace if worn.
Clean strainer in seal fluid line.
30,000 Hours of Operation Every 30,000 hours, or every 5 years, it is recommended that you replace the vacuum pump’s
mechanical seals and bearings as preventative maintenance. This should be done by a DEKKER
authorized distributor or properly trained service technician.

Devarnishing The operating life of the unit is greatly enhanced based on the quality of the seal fluid. Oxidized or darkened
seal fluid is a sign of trouble. Plugged filters reduce performance and may damage pump. Periodic maintenance
will offer the best protection for your equipment.
DEKKER offers a specially formulated devarnishing compound Proclean 39V for oil-sealed liquid ring pumps and
systems. Procedure for using Proclean 39V and SDS sheet are included with the product.
NOTE: Varnished pumps are not covered under warranty.
ACCESSORIES AND PROTECTIVE DEVICES (IF INCLUDED)
Accessories The following accessories are available for Vmax oil-sealed liquid ring vacuum pump systems.
Inlet or Discharge Flexible Connectors (optional): These flex connectors are used in piping
systems to eliminate vibration transmission from machinery throughout the piping network.
Vibration Isolators (optional): Vibration isolators are used to eliminate vibrations, noise and shock
transmission from machinery to the floor. Floor-mount type vibration isolators are used for Vmax
vacuum pump systems.
System Isolation Valve (optional): This valve may be installed on the vacuum receiver tank or
vacuum pump manifold. Usually the valve is used to isolate the vacuum system from the piping
network.
Inlet Filter (optional): An inlet filter may be installed on the Vmax oil-sealed vacuum pump systems
to prevent carry-over of particles into the pump.
Vacuum Relief Valve (optional): This valve may be installed on the pump suction manifold or on
the receiver. The vacuum relief valve is used to protect the vacuum pump from closed suction which
can damage the pump.
Protective Devices The following protective devices are available to protect the unit from being damaged and to help with
maintenance:
High Temperature Switch (optional): The switch will signal when the temperature of the seal
fluid is exceeding the shut-down level. The switch will shut the unit down. The unit will not restart
until the alarm condition is acknowledged and is reset. The switch is a “snap disc” type of switch that
is normally closed. When the temperature reaches the maximum set point, the switch will open. Once
the switch has opened, there is a 10°-20°F differential that the temperature will need to drop to, in
order for the switch to close.
High Back-Pressure Switch (optional): This switch is installed on the discharge of the separator.
When the back-pressure reaches a pre-determined level (4 psi), the switch will signal the control
panel. A high back-pressure light may be installed on the control panel, which, when illuminated,
signals that the exhaust element in the vacuum pump needs to be replaced. Note that the high back-
pressure switch will not shut the unit down, but the exhaust element must be replaced as soon as
possible.
Low Oil Level Switch (optional): This switch is installed in the separator/reservoir of the liquid
ring vacuum pump. It is a float type of switch. If the level switch is triggered, the affected pump will
shut down. The LOW OIL LEVEL light on the control panel will be illuminated. The low level switch
will be wired into the main alarm of the panel. The alarm will have to be reset to restart the pump.
When filling the system with oil, make sure that the power to the pump is off because if the alarm
reset button has been reset and the level switches contacts close while filling the pump, the pump will
start-up automatically.
