Power Failure
In the event of a power failure (momentary or long term), the Turbo-
V ICE controller will stop the turbopump and all the interconnected
pumps/devices. The Turbo-V ICE vent valve device, if used, will vent
the turbopump only if the power failure is longer than the preset
delay time. When power is restored, the Turbo-V ICE controller
automatically restarts the interconnected devices and the turbopump
in the proper sequence.

Operating the Pump
After the starting period, if the system has a vacuum leak or the
pressure in the pump chamber is high (from 1 mbar to atmosphere),
the pump continues to operate indefinitely. If the gas load at the
turbopump inlet flange continues to stay high, the power drawn by
the turbopump increases up to the maximum value (250 W with
water cooling, or 150 W with air cooling).
