Turbo V 301-AG / 9698991 Overview:

The Turbo-V 301 Rack controllers are micro-processorcontrolled, solid-state, frequency converter with selfdiagnostic and self-protection features. The controllers drive (within ten steps) the Turbo-V 301 pump during the starting phase by controlling the voltage and current respect to the speed reached by the pump.
They incorporate all the facilities required for the automatic operation of the Turbo-V 301 pump series. Remote start/stop, pump status signals, forepump start/stop, interlock control (for pressure switch, water flow switch, etc.) capability, are provided via auxiliary connectors.

The controller is available in two versions which differ only in the factory-set input voltage:
• Model 969-9437 (220 Vac, 50-60 Hz)
• Model 969-9537 (120 Vac, 50-60 Hz)

Controller Designed to operate with Varian Agilent TV 301 Navigator Turbomolecular Pump. TV301.

The controller is a solid-state frequency converter which is driven by a single chip microcomputer and is composed of:
- Power transformer
- Front panel display and keyboard
- Rear panel with input/output connectors
- PCB including: power supply and 3-phase output, analog and input/output section, microprocessor and digital section, display and keyboard circuits.

The power supply converts the single phase (50-60 Hz) AC mains supply into a 3-phase, low voltage, medium frequency output which is required to power the Turbo-V pump. The microcomputer generates the variable output frequency and controls the 3-phase output voltage according to the software and the gas load condition of the pump.
Moreover, it manages signals from sensors, input/output connection information to be displayed, and gives outputs for a fully automatic operation. A dedicated non-volatile RAM is used to store pump operating parameters and the input/output programmed information upon failure for a period of 10 years accumulated off time.
