Vacuum pump
To obtain a vacuum pump which appropriately performs temperature management of a gas flow path and reduces restrictions on a gas flow rate attributable to the temperature management. A cooling tube performs temperature adjustment of a gas flow path. A first temperature sensor is arranged at a position closer to the gas flow path than the cooling tube, a second temperature sensor is arranged at a position closer to the cooling tube than the gas flow path, and a control apparatus controls, based on a sensor signal of the first temperature sensor and a sensor signal of the second temperature sensor, (an on-off valve of) the cooling tube so that a temperature of the gas flow path approaches a predetermined gas flow path target temperature.
1 . A vacuum pump which exhausts gas sucked in by a rotation of a rotor, the vacuum pump comprising:
a temperature adjuster which performs temperature adjustment of a gas flow path;
a first temperature sensor arranged at a position closer to the gas flow path than the temperature adjuster;
a second temperature sensor arranged at a position closer to the temperature adjuster than the gas flow path; and
a control apparatus which controls the temperature adjuster based on a sensor signal of the first temperature sensor and a sensor signal of the second temperature sensor so that a temperature of the gas flow path approaches a predetermined gas flow path target temperature,
wherein the control apparatus modifies, in accordance with a change in a measured temperature based on the sensor signal of the first temperature sensor, a control temperature set value being a target temperature of the temperature adjuster in an opposite direction to a direction of the change in the measured temperature.
2 . The vacuum pump according to claim 1 , wherein the control apparatus: controls the temperature adjuster so that a measured temperature based on a sensor signal of the second temperature sensor approaches the control temperature set value to cause a temperature of the gas flow path to approach a predetermined gas flow path target temperature.
