You can take solace in the fact that at least one member of the HN community went on wikipedia to read about turbomolecular pumps.

Interesting devices. They seem to be quite expensive, many thousands of dollars [1]. Did you consider buying insurance for your turbomolecular pump?

If you have other high value devices, maybe you can look to insure them. You never know. Better to collect insurance than to start shooting people.
