MACHINE TECHNOLOGY & COMPONENTS

ENERGY SMART TECHNOLOGY

The Energy Smart Wrapper is an innovative system that incorporates an “Instant On” heating foil with the ability to go

from ambient to sealing temperature in a matter of seconds. The high speed foil in combination with a load activated
switch allows the operator to seal a product on demand and to save energy when the wrapper is not in use. The first step
to getting the wrapper up and running is to set up the axle assembly and get the film mounted and threaded properly.

The special heating foil has been tested as part of our quality procedures and you may see a wavy or wrinkling affect on
the surface of the stainless steel plate just under the replaceable Non-stick cover. This waviness is caused by the differ­ential thermal expansion of the materials that are used to construct the layered seal plate and wrinkling will be observed
as the wrapper is used daily and the seal plate settles in.

HOT ROD HEAT UP

With the film properly mounted and threaded, the wrapper is
ready to be powered up. See INSTALLING & REPLACING
AXLE ASSEMBLY.

After plugging the power cord into an electrical outlet, flip the
power switch located on the front of the electrical box to the
ON position.

The hot rod (1) will require about a 5 minute warm up period
before it reaches a cutting temperature of above 275˚ F.

LOAD ACTIVATED HEATER

The seal plate of the wrapper is activated by a switch that is
engaged when a downward load is applied to the plate (2).

This feature ensures that the seal plate will consume energy
only when there is a demand by the operator.

Do NOT use the seal plate as a cutting surface, as this will
damage the thin heating foil and Non-stick cover plate. Seal
plate damage voids the warranty.

MACHINE TECHNOLOGY & COMPONENTS

STAINLESS STEEL BRIDGE

The wrapper comes with a stainless steel bridge (1) that can
be utilized as a working surface while preparing products.

The stainless steel bridge is not recommended as a cutting
surface.

THREE ROLL CAPACITY

The wrapper has the ability to house three rolls of film at a
time (2). The rolls should be mounted and threaded as shown
on pages 6-7.

OPERATOR INDICATOR LIGHT

Since the sealing plate is only activated when a load is applied,
a red neon light (3) has been included to provide the operator a
visual indicator that the heater is active. When the light is on, the
seal plate switch is engaged and its surface will become hot
instantly.

TWO POSITION SWITCH

On the back of the electrical box, there is a two position switch
(4) which allows the operator to vary the length of time that the
seal plate is on. The 3.0 and 4.0 second settings allow for differ­ent film types being used. The 3.0 setting should be used to seal
most film types. However, you should test the seal ability of your
specific film material. The red neon light gives the operator a
visual time reference to these settings when sealing a product.

In order to maximize the energy savings of the wrapper, it is
suggested to use the lowest possible time setting that yields a
proper seal using the specific film selected for wrapping.

THERMISTOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Due to the rapid response of the heating foil and residual heat that can remain from previous cycles, a thermistor is incorpo­rated as a temperature control device. The seal cycle can be shorter than 3 seconds when residual heat is present in seal
plate. The thermistor is located on the heating foil and it regulates the temperature of the seal plate to ensure that the foil
temperature peaks at around 300˚F.

NOTE: The thermistor is the governing control to supply heat to the seal plate over the timed indicator light. Therefore, if
residual heat is present in the seal plate, the sealing cycle can be shorter than the timed neon light. You should hear a brief
click when the foil reaches sealing temperature.

PRELIMINARY SETUP

HOW TO ATTACH 107-ESCK

CONVERSION KIT TO

107-A FRAME

Detach the electrical line cord from 107-A frame. Then, remove
the old 107-A hot plate and front plate assembly from the 107-A
frame, by removing the support rod (A) and the two self tapping
screws that fix the base of the front plate assembly to the frame.

Angle the 107-ESCK conversion kit assembly forward, so that
the electrical box switches are positioned below the console bar
(B). Lower the back of the conversion kit into position, making
sure to line up the screw holes (C) and the support bar holes
(D).

With the nylock hex nut and washer on the rod, insert support
rod through the 107-A frame, side plate assembly, then through
the conversion kit and out the other side. Attach washer and
nylock hex nut (E) to the other end of support rod.

*For older 107-A models, you may have to widen the hole in
both outer aluminum side plates (F) that the support rod must
thread through in order to align all holes.

Fasten the self taping screw through the conversion kit assem­bly and into the 107 aluminum frame. Repeat on the opposite
side.

Attach the electrical line cord to the 107 aluminum frame with
the line cord clamps and screws included with the ESCK unit.

PRELIMINARY SETUP

MOUNTING FILM ON AXLE

Loosen four wing nuts (A).

Swing out upper bearing blocks (B) on both sides.

Lift out axle assembly (C) and unscrew movable end cap (D), position fixed end cap (E) for correct film width then secure
with pin (F) and o-ring (G).

Position the cardboard core of the film roll against the taper of the fixed end cap. Make sure the film is threaded from the
bottom of the roll and under film roller (H) (see threading diagrams page 6)

Replace movable end cap (D) and screw on tightly.

Replace the axle assembly (C) and film roll onto the lower bearing blocks (I), swing upper bearing blocks (B) back into place
and tighten and adjust wing nuts (A) for desired film tension.
