Oil leaking from case
Hello all,
I have been having issues with my Leybold D65B rotary vane. It seems as of late, when we PM the unit and replace the oil case gasket, that we spring a leak of vacuum pump oil from below the unit as well as the bottom two corners of the case. I'd loathe having to buy a new unit. Is there anything that can be done to supplement the standard Leybold gasket and get a proper seal against the oil case?
