Connection of interfaces
Observe the relevant connections
NOTE
(see Fig. 1).
O: Hose connection d= 8 mm OUTLET
Link this connection to the emission condenser with a vacuum
hose, or fit a sound absorber to the end.
Put the end of the hose in the
NOTE
extractor hood!
Check there is a free outlet on the
pressurised side!
Do not use a throttle on the
pressurised side and do not close
the outlet! Connect the exhaust
line to this connection.
K: Connection for vacuum controller VC 10 (Mini DIN)
You can connect the vacuum pump and the vacuum controller
VC 10 or the rotary evaporator RV10 auto with the analogue
connection cable for precise speed-controlled vacuum control.
The vacuum controller detects the pump and switches to
speed-vacuum control mode. Two-position control is deactivated.
L: USB interface
IKA Vacstar digital with vacuum controller VC 10
Cannot be operated with optional
NOTE
water valve RV 10.5001 in conjunction
with VC 2.4.
Refer to the operating instructions
for the vacuum controller VC 10!
When the target value is reached, the suction line is closed by the
vacuum valve integrated in the VC 10. The pump speed can be
changed by manually setting the speed.

evaporator, reactor)

Connect the vacuum pump IKA Vacstar digital to a PC with a USB
A - USB B cable. Any device software updates can be loaded using
the IKA FUT software tool.
M: RS 232 interface
You can connect the IKA Vacstar digital vacuum pump to a PC
using an RS 232 interface cable. The pump can be operated in
conjunction with other devices with labworldsoft
laboratory
®
device software. For further information see the chapter "Interfaces
and outputs".
N: Water valve connection
Connect the optional water throttle valve RV 10.5001 to the
diaphragm vacuum pump. The water flow to the emission
condensor is controlled using the water valve. The valve is opened
as soon as the pump is switched on.
I: Hose connection for suction line d= 8 mm INLET
Connect the suction line to this connection.
Link this connection to the recipient (rotary evaporator condenser,
laboratory reacor etc.) with a vacuum hose.
P: Power supply cable connection
Check that the voltage information on the rating plate matches
your mains supply. Connect the power supply cable to supply
electricity.
When using the optional pump cut-out unit
VC 2.4 (ref. 6) the pump is switched off when the target value is
reached (operating mode B).
This device configuration is also possible without the pump
cut-out unit VC 2.4. The pump runs on. For good control, the
pump should be operated at a low speed.
Speed regulation
IKA Vacstar digital with vacuum controller VC 10 or rotary evaporator
RV 10 auto
Observe the operating instructions
NOTE
for the devices.
Automatc setting of the operating mode "Speed regulation" as
soon as the analogue connecting cable (ref. 8) connects the
pump with the vacuum controller or rotary evaporator.
1 Recipient (load, e.g. rotary
evaporator, reactor)
2 Vacuum separator (e.g.
Woulff bottle)
7 Emission condenser
8 Analogue connecting cable
When the target value is reached, the pump speed is auto-
matically reduced to a minimum of "0 rpm". Once the target
value is reached, the pump applies suction according to the leakage
rate of the vacuum system. Automatic boiling point recognition
is possible.
