  • the electrical connection power ie the electrical power requirement as a function of the vacuum or suction power
  • other parameters such as the barrier water temperature have a significant influence on the electrical power requirement of the respective vacuum pump 4.1 - 4.3, these are also taken into account in the pump characteristic or parameter-specific pump characteristics are determined.
  • the pump characteristic preferably also taking into account the overall efficiency of the vacuum device 3 and the vacuum-leading portion of the system 1, which is in the FIG. 2 represented overall characteristic curve 7, which at a predetermined, generated by the vacuum device 3 constant negative pressure, ie in the illustrated embodiment at a negative pressure of 80 mbar the electrical power requirement in kW as a function of the suction power in m 3 / h.

Conversely, if a reduction of the suction power of the vacuum unit 3 and thus a reduction of the pump speed is required, then the machine control 5 switches to the next lower number of activated vacuum pumps 4.1 - 4.3 when reaching the switching point SP1 or SP2.
  • both at the beginning of the process and during the ongoing process of the machine controller 5 always those vacuum 4.1 - 4.3 preferably activated, currently have the lowest operating times, so that a uniform use of all vacuum pumps 4.1 - 4.3 takes place and for all vacuum pumps the respective Maintenance is due at the same time.
