TESTING
All the Battioni Pagani® rotary blades vacuum pumps are tested at our factory before delivery.
To carry out testing of the rotary blades vacuum pump verify the previous steps, possibly using a workbench.
Make sure that the shaft of the power take-off (PTO) turns freely and that the direction of rotation is the same as
that indicated by the arrow.
In case of verification of operation of the rotary blades vacuum pump without connection to the intake/discharge
pipes, there is a danger of severing for the operators due to access to the inside of the discharge elbow. There is
also danger under the same conditions of the intake of foreign objects inside the machine.
Check that the handle position is correct and that the rotary blades vacuum pump is intaking or compressing.
8.2 - RUNNING IN
The running in period foreseen for a rotary blades pump is of 30 of effective working. During that period the working parameters
must be reduced of 20%
9.1 START-UP
The Rotary blades vacuum pump does not have a start button. Therefore to start it just transmit the motion to the power take-off
(P.T.O.). The way this is done depends on the version of Rotary blades vacuum pump. Ensure, before putting into motion, that the
rotary blades vacuum pump has sufficient oil for internal lubrication.
Before starting the rotary blades vacuum pump, make sure that the guards on all the moving parts are in place
and efficient. Any damaged or missing components must be replaced and installed correctly before using the
transmission.

OPERATION
For correct operation of the pump, it is advisable before starting work to operate the pump at 700 rpm without
suctioning/compressing the air inside the tank for approximately 2 minutes to ensure pre-lubrication of the pump.
For correct use of the pump, it is advisable to start loading with the stemgate of the suction tube open, avoiding
creating a vacuum in the tank and then open the stemgate.
For correct operation of the pump, at the end of the loading or unloading cycle it is advisable to operate the pump
at 700 rpm without suctioning/compressing the air inside the tank for approximately 2 minutes in order to lower
the temperature inside the pump.
Do not use the rotary blades vacuum pump at pressures, temperatures and for a time greater than what is
indicated in Table 5. During use, do not exceed the conditions of speed and power established by the manual.
Do not overload the machine or suddenly engage the P.T.O.
Once the desired vacuum has been reached it is advisable to reduce the rotations of the rotary blades vacuum
pump. The volume of air to be suctioned is only what corresponds to the volume of liquid loaded in the tank.
This simple measure, which does not increase the loading time of the tank, translates into lower consumption
of the blades. Do not use the rotary blades vacuum pump at the maximum rotation speed indicated on the
identification plate for longer than two minutes.
