Abstract
A vacuum pump includes; a rotor, a stator, a motor, a heating section heating the pump base portion, a base temperature detection section detecting a temperature of the pump base portion, a rotor temperature detection section detecting a temperature equivalent as a physical amount equivalent to a temperature of the rotor, and a heating control section to control heating of the pump base portion by the heating section such that a detection value of the rotor temperature detection section falls within a predetermined target value range. A monitoring device comprises: an estimation section configured to estimate, based on multiple temperatures detected over time by the base temperature detection section, maintenance timing at which the temperature of the pump base portion reaches equal to or lower than a predetermined temperature; and an output section configured to output maintenance information based on the estimated maintenance timing.
