Note— This procedure can be completed without removing the Vacuum Housing.

Parts and Materials Required

  • Vacuum Power Cable and Fuse

Time Required

30 minutes

Procedure

  1. ClosedDisconnect the Power Cables from the PCB on top of the Vacuum Housing.

  2. Remove the Power Cable from the cable chase.
    Note— Take care to prevent other cables inside the cable chase from falling out or becoming tangled with other cabling and equipment.
  3. ClosedUnscrew the positive and negative cable from the power supply.

  2. ClosedRoute the new Power Cable through the cable chase and place the ferrite in an area where it will not interfere with any of the drawers.

  3. Connect the power cable to the PCB on the top of the Vacuum Housing.

Verification

  1. Power on the Panther System and PC.
  2. Log in to the FSE shield.
  3. Open the Service Software.
  4. Initialize the Vacuum.
  5. Activate the Vacuum & Read the Vacuum pressure.
  6. Verify the vacuum is within specifications.
    The vacuum level must read between -203mbar and -270mbar and the vacuum pump speed must read above 1650rpm.
    If needed refer to Configuring the Quad Head Vacuum Pump Speed.
  7. Exit Service Software.
  8. Start Panther Main.
  9. Check Vacuum in Panther Main.
  10. PrimeClosedOperation of pumping fluid through tubing to ensure proper and consistent fluid delivery (remove air from the tubing, etc.). the system.
  11. Verify the Vacuum is within Specification:
    1. Maintains a vacuum level between 6inHg and 8inHg.
    2. Verify that exhaust is flowing through the rear vent (serial #00281 and higher) or through the routed tubing (serial #00280 and lower).
  12. Shutdown and restart the Panther System and PC in Customer Mode and return to customer.
