The Turbo-V 6000 controller is a 19” rack mountable unit.
This controller provides the following features:
Remote Operation with System Controller
The Turbo-V controller can accept remote commands with
either TTL-compatible logic level signals or with permanent
contact closures.
A signal (logic level) indicates that the pump is operating and
has achieved normal speed. Also available is the indication of
overload due to high-temperature or high-current levels.
System Diagnostics
Front panel LED bar graph displays the controller output
frequency and the power drawn by the pump. An overload
condition is also indicated and an hour counter monitors the
operating hours on the pump to help adhere to the
recommended maintenance intervals.
Control of other System Components
The Turbo-V controller can power the mechanical pump
contactor to provide a one-switch control of both Turbo-V and
mechanical pump startup. Simultaneous starting of the Turbo-V
and mechanical pump is recommended for most applications
where no high-vacuum valve is required.

The Turbo-V controller provides power to a turbo vent
valve, if used.
A starting interlock is available that can be used for delayed
starting of the Turbo-V with a contact closure from a vacuum
gauge set point. The interlock could also be integrated to a
water-flow switch to provide an early warning of interrupted
cooling of the pump.
High-pressure Operation
The controller’s ability to adjust the Turbo-V pump’s rotational
speed under high gas load conditions extends the operating
range of the Turbo-V pumps into the 10
-1
mbar range.
