[labnetwork] Leybold turbo pump controller

Tue Aug 21 18:01:56 EDT 2018

On a separate note can someone give input on the elusive calibration technique?  There is supposed to be a method to calibrate this particular controller with the MAG 900 CT pump even though it not documented.  Something along the lines of holding in the stop button, then start button, let go of the start button and finally the stop button.  I tried this and nada happened.

Any input words of guidance from our esteemed community?  Anyone want to have a pump bonfire with me?  ��

Cheers!

Hi Jeff

I concur with Mr. Paolini, figuring out the button config will clear it.  I ran into similar issues several  years ago and by chance/luck was able to clear as a button pusher….

Good luck

Jeff,

  The message you are getting means that the turbo was jolted or shocked in some manner and you’re right, It’s specific to the controller. You will have to play with the buttons on the controller to figure out how to clear the message.

Hi Wing!  Getting your controller repaired is going to be challenging for finding a repair outfit is getting more challenging and most places will want you to send a good pump and cables along with your controller to make sure the controller is repaired.

We’re still going through issues of trying to get our DRIE back up and running.  We were also prepared to do an upgrade until we found out lead times for new semiconductor pumps were up to 8 months.

Best of luck to you.

Cheers!

Dear network members,

We have two turbo pump controllers (Mag Drive 1000, to drive MAG 900 turbo pump) out of order. It shows "Bearing Sensor" "Levitation Fail" onto the display. We swarp a good controller to the system, no error message appear. I guest the fault is come form the controller itself. However, I contact with Leybold but they said this model is obsoleted, no service can be provide further.

Is there any suggestion of company can provide service to repair the controllers?
