Description of the Machine 13

4.2.2 General Functions

Function Pictogram Operation

Cleaning of the oil pump

External Vacuum

The pump cleaning programme ensures that the pump is thoroughly rinsed. During the programme, the pump and oil reach the operating temperature, so the oil and moisture are separated and any contamination is filtered. The high temperature causes any moisture in the pump to evaporate, thus minimising the risk of corrosion.

This function allows special food containers to be vacuumed outside the machine.

The options to set the vacuum value are the same as for standard vacuuming (see External Vacuum (optional) on page

23).

4.3 Sealing System

The sealing system closes the opening(s) of the bag to retain the vacuum and/or gas in the bag. The end of the bag can optionally be cut off by the sealing bar.

Figure 2: Overview of the Sealing System

1. Sealing bar

The sealing bar consists of the following components:

• Sealing wires: during the sealing process, the sealing wires are heated for a certain time causing the edges of the vacuum bag to melt together.

• Cut-off wires (optional): A cut-off wire is heated in such a way that the foil of the bag partially melts, allowing the excess foil of the vacuum bag to be removed easily.

• Teflon tape: sealing and cut-off wires are covered with Teflon tape to prevent the bag from sticking to the sealing bar.

Description of the Machine 14

Consult Replacing the Sealing Wire on page 31 for more detailed information about maintenance.

2. Silicone holder

Opposite the sealing bar is a silicone holder which provides counter pressure on the cylinders (Replacing the Silicone Rubber of the Silicone Holders on page 32).

3. Sealing mechanism

The sealing bars are pressed onto the vacuum bag by cylinders. By connecting the inlet of the cylinders with the atmospheric pressure outside, they press the sealing bar onto the bag.

Vacuum must be set to maximum.

wire are heated. The longer the time, the more heat is transferred to the bag. The average seal time is 1.8-2.5 seconds.

The vacuum in the chamber must be at least 30% at the moment of sealing (-0.3 bar on the meter).

If the pressure is reduced, the boiling point of liquids will be decreased; see Figure 9: Vapour Pressure Curve of Water on page 25. As a result of this law of nature, a product may start boiling. In addition to contamination of the machine, this will reduce the weight and quality of the product to be packaged.

When packaging moisture-containing products, such as soups and sauces, it is important to closely monitor the vacuuming process. The moment bubbles are formed or the product starts to bubble, you should immediately proceed to the next step in the cycle. See Proceeding to the Next Step in the Cycle on page 21.

By letting products cool down sufficiently prior to starting the vacuuming process, a higher vacuum can be achieved.

Operation 24

When packaging moisture-containing products, it is important to run the pump cleaning programme at least once a week. When moisture-containing products are vacuumed on a daily basis, it is recommended to run the pump cleaning programme at the end of the day.

7.2 Cleaning the Machine

Never clean the machine using a high pressure cleaner.

Do not use any aggressive or toxic cleaning agents.

Do not use any cleaning agents containing solvents.

1. Clean the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. You can also apply a cleaning agent to the machine and wash it with clean water.

7.3 Running the Pump Cleaning Programme

The pump cleaning programme runs the vacuum pump for 15 minutes. During the programme, the pump and the oil reach the operating temperature. Moisture in the pump is absorbed by the oil. The high temperature causes any moisture in the pump to evaporate, and minimises the risk of corrosion.

It is advisable to run the programme before using the machine for the first time, after the machine has been stationary for a lengthy period of time, and especially prior to changing oil.

Run the pump cleaning programme every week. If you package moisture-containing products, such as soups and sauces, the pump cleaning programme should be run every day.

1. Select the pump cleaning programme. Press the Pump Cleaning Programme button.

2. Close the lid to start the pump cleaning programme. The pump cleaning programme will run for 15 minutes.

7.4 Removing Oil, Refilling Oil

This section describes how to remove oil from the pump and how to refill the oil. See Vacuum Pump on page 15 for an overview of the pump parts.

If the machine remains unused for a prolonged period of time, the oil must be removed from the pump. This is necessary because moisture and dirt in the oil may affect the pump, causing the pump to jam at the next use.

The oil in the vacuum pump may be hot. Avoid contact with hot oil when removing the oil.

Maintenance 27

Follow the steps below to remove the oil from the pump:

1. Place a drip pan under the oil drain plug.

2. Remove the oil drain plug.

The oil will drain from the pump.

3. Replace the oil drain plug.

Follow the steps below to add oil to the pump. You can follow these steps after all oil has been removed, but also to refill oil.

4. Remove the oil drain plug.

5. Add oil until the oil level is between the minimum and maximum levels.

6. Replace the oil drain plug.

7.5 Replacing the Oil Exhaust Filter

The oil exhaust filter prevents oil vapours from being emitted from the vacuum pump with the exhaust air. If the filter becomes saturated, the maximum vacuum level can no longer be reached. Replace the filter in case of vacuuming problems or as specified in Maintenance Schedule on page

26.

7.6 Replacing the Sealing Wire

Depending on the specifications of your machine, you can have one of the following (combinations of) sealing wires:

• Wide seal: one wide sealing wire

• Double seal: two sealing wires

• Trenn seal: one sealing wire and one cutting wire

The process of replacing the sealing wires is the same for all types.

Replace the sealing wires if the wire and/or the Teflon tape are damaged, or as specified in

Maintenance Schedule on page 26.

Figure 14: Removing the Sealing Bar

1. Remove the sealing bar by lifting it from the cylinders. See Figure 14: Removing the Sealing Bar on page 31.

Maintenance 31
