4.2 Description
The S-VSI model range has a connecting thread on the suction side and an exhaust silencer with connecting
thread on the pressure side.
The TWISTER S-VSI is a double shaft screw vacuum pump in which two parallel screw rotors roll off against
each other without touching and dry. The gas to be fed in is here enclosed in the pump’s suction chamber
and compressed by the rotary movement of the screw rotors in the direction of the outlet. The gas sucked
in is gradually compressed to atmospheric pressure. The counter-rotating screw rotors are synchronised by
a gear pair in the gearbox. The synchronous gearbox gear wheels and the bearings are lubricated with oil.
These components are in a gearbox that also contains the oil supply. Oil conveying devices always ensure
that the bearings and the gear wheels are sufficiently supplied with oil at all permissible speeds.
The gearbox and the compression chamber are separated from each other by special seals. The gearbox is
sealed from the outside with shaft seals and O rings, the compressor chamber with piston rings. Between
the two there is also another atmospherically ventilated area that can be loaded with sealing gas (special
version).
The TWISTER S-VSI is driven by standard flanged three phase motors via a coupling (with an elastomer
component).
The screw vacuum pumps are suitable for the evacuation of closed systems or for a continuous vacuum
within the following intake pressure ranges: 0.1 to 1000 mbar (abs.).
They are also particularly suitable for feeding in extremely damp gases. The water vapour compatibility is
very high.
The maximum pumping capacity with free suction is 320 m3/h at 50 Hz. Data sheet D 832 / 42 shows the
dependency of the pumping capacity on the intake pressure.
If the unit is switched on more frequently (at regular
intervals of > 10 times an hour) or at higher ambient
temperatures and intake temperatures, the excess
temperature limit of the motor winding and the bear-
ings may be exceeded.Please contact the manufac-
turer should the unit be used under such conditions.
If it is installed in the open air the unit must be pro-
tected from environmental influences, (e.g. by a pro-
tective roof).

Handling anti-freeze
Anti-freeze may contain harmful ingredients, such
as ethylene glycol that could damage your health,
especially if swallowed.
DANGER
NOTICE
Power supply
The conditions at the installation location must match
the information on the motor data plate.
Without derating the following is permissible:
• ± 5% Voltage deviation
• ± 2% Frequency deviation
WARNING
Improper use
May lead to severe or fatal injuries. Therefore be
sure to obey the safety instructions.
CAUTION
Hot surfaces
When the machine is at operating temperature the
surface temperatures on the components (Fig. 2/
Q) may go above 70°C.
You must avoid touching the hot surfaces (mar-
ked with warning plates)!
CAUTION
Noise emission
The highest noise pressure levels measured as
per EN ISO 3744 are given in Section 9.
When spending a long time in the vicinity of the
running machine use ear protectors to avoid per-
manent damage to your hearing.

DANGER
WARNING
Regular maintenance work must be carried out in order to ensure operational safety.
Maintenance intervals also depend on the operational demands on the machine.
With any work observe the safety instructions described in Section 2.8 “Safety notes for installation, com-
missioning and maintenance”.
The whole unit should always be kept in a clean condition.

The oil level in the sight glasses (Fig. 9/I, I1) must be
checked every month.
When refilling with oil the machine must be switched
off and vented to atmospheric pressure. With clean
operations the oil must be changed after every
7,500 operating hours.
The oil viscosity must comply with ISO VG 150 as
per DIN 51519.
