RL vacuum pumps Thank you for choosing a REFCO vacuum pump. We are proud of each and every REFCO product and are dedicated to ensuring our products always perform reliably. The design of the vacuum pump ensures that the requirements of the relevant CE directives and standards are fulfilled. Reading the following operating instructions thoroughly and following our recommendations will give you important information for the smooth operation and maintenance of your pump and help to prolong its lifespan.

The vacuum pump is supplied without oil filling. Prior to the first operation the vacuum pump must be filled to half level of the oil sight glass (Pos. 20) with the oil provided (DV-44/DV-45). The oil is being filled in through the port of the oil mist filter (Pos. 19). Only fill oil up to half level of the oil sight glass. Refit the oil mist filter (Pos. 19) after filling. Remove the flare cap from the intake port to start the pump (with model RL-8 also turn the ball valve to open position).

Change of oil • Run the pump until operating temperature has been reached. Turn the pump of and disconnect from mains. • Unscrew the oil mist filter (Pos. 19) • Drain oil through drain plug (RL-4/RL-8 Pos. 23) or through opening for oil mist filter (model RL-2 does not have an oil drainage plug and the oil must be drained through opening of oil mist filter). • Connect pump to the mains again and turn on. Let the pump run for 10-15 seconds with open intake port in order to drain oil residue in the pump head.
