Leakage test
01
Leakage test: User to confirm the vacuum connection. Press ok if
the connection is good.
Set Value: User to input the required leakage rate with tolerance.
Default leakage rate is 3mbar with tolerance 1mbar.
Test point: User to input the pressure which the leakage test will
Temperature (VC 10 pro)
Temperature sensor
In the "Temperature" menu the user can specify that the tempera-
ture sensor is displayed on the display/working screen. A tick ()
shows that the option is activated.
The precondition for this is that a temperature sensor is connec-
ted to the vacuum controller. If no temperature sensor is con-
nected, or an error is present or the temperature rises above
350 °C, three dashes are shown as the temperature value.
Timer
Timer functions
In the "Timer" menu the user can specify that the timer is dis-
played on the display/working screen. A tick () shows that the

be executed at. Default value is 500 mbar.
Duration: User to input duration of the leakage test. Default value
is 1 minute.
In progress: The pump will start running to reach the test point.
(Graph below: Phase 1 and 2)
The leakage measurement will start once the pressure has reached
the interested test point. Meanwhile, the timer will start counting
down from the pre-set duration. (Graph below: Phase 3)

measurement range of the external
temperature sensor specified in the
"Technical data" section. The tem-
perature display can be in either °C
or °F (see the "Settings" menu).
Calibration
In order to calibrate the external temperature sensor, it must first
be connected to the vacuum controller. The temperature sensor
is then immersed in a vessel with water, for example. The water
temperature is determined using a second, already calibrated tem-
perature measuring device. The measured temperature must then
be entered in the menu under "Temperature calibration". Once
the entry has been confirmed with "OK", the external temperature
sensor is calibrated.
option is activated. This setting allows the user to specify the actu-
al time for the evacuation procedure.
A default time can also be set for the timer. This setting allows the
user to start evacuation for a standard time. The device can emit a
signal (beep) after the set target time has elapsed.
The user can stop the evacuation

procedure before expiry of the set
time. In this case the countdown
of the timer is interrupted.

current run comes to an end or the device is switched off, and the
value can be changed.
Operating mode C:
In this operating mode, the set target value is saved when the
current run comes to an end or the device is switched off, and the
value cannot be changed.
Operating mode D:
In this operating mode, the target value is applied if it does not
change after 3 seconds, or when the yellow background is dis-
played behind the target value. In operating modes A and B, the
target value is applied immediately when the target value is chan-
ged by turning the knob.
In operating mode C, the target value cannot be changed.
In the "Display" menu the user can specify what information will
be displayed on the main screen.
In the "Graph" menu, user can observe the real-time pressure
change on the shown graph.
Select:
To select a program, use the rotating/pressing knob and press "Se-
lect". Only programs that have at least one program segment can
be selected.
When a program has been successfully selected, this is indica-
ted by a tick mark (). The vacuum controller is then in program
mode. In the main screen, the program view can then be selected
by turning the knob to the right. Turning the knob to the left re-
turns the user to the main screen.
Start:
To start a selected program, the push knob must be pressed in the
main screen.
Edit:
Edit the selected program parameters. Start to edit the selected
program parameters by pressing on menu option "Edit" with rota-
ting/pressing knob. The user can edit, delete or insert one selected
program segment in the program.
Delete:
Deletes the selected program. If a selected program is deleted by
pressing on menu option "Delete" with rotating/pressing knob, all
the program parameters will be emptied. The tick () disappears.
