A vacuum valve attached to a vacuum pump configured to generate regenerative power to perform a stop operation upon blackout, comprises: a first power input section to which power is input from a commercial power source; a second power input section to which the regenerative power generated at the vacuum pump is input; and a valve source circuit to which the power input to each of the first and second power input sections is supplied. When the power from the commercial power source is supplied to the first power input section, the vacuum valve is operated by the supplied power, and when the power from the commercial power source is stopped, the vacuum valve is operated by the regenerative power.
