Description of the Machine 14
4.2 Description of the Packaging Process/Machine Functions
This section provides an overview of the packaging process and available machine functions.
See Changing the Program Settings (manual) on page 22 for information about setting
the parameters to the correct values.
4.2.1 Packaging Process/Machine Functions
This section describes the packaging process and the machine functions. See Operation on page
20 for the realization of the specific steps of the procedure.
Step Process phase Screen image Operation
1. Preparation
The operator puts the product in a vacuum bag and
places it on the work surface with the opening on the
sealing position.
Applying vacu-
um
The vacuum process is initiated by closing the lid.
During the cycle, the air will be removed from the
chamber until the set vacuum percentage or value in
mbar or hPa has been reached.
Liquid control
(optional)
Liquid Control is only available if your machine is
equipped with the optional Liquid Control sensor.
With the Liquid Control option, the system is con-
trolled by a highly sensitive sensor. The sensor
is able to detect the moment that liquids from the
product or the product itself begin to evaporate (boil).
At that time the system will proceed to the next step
in the process.
This option will prevent the product from dehydrating,
losing weight and/or the vacuum bag from bursting,
which can contaminate the seal, the chamber, and
the oil in the pump.
2.
Vacuum+
Vacuum+ is only available if the vacuum percentage
is set to the maximum.
The Vacuum+ option continues the vacuum process
for an additional time to allow any entrapped air to
escape from the product.
Description of the Machine 15
Step Process phase Screen image Operation
3. Red meat (op-
tional)
This option is added to the normal vacuum function.
A small amount of air is rapidly flushed inside the
chamber before sealing. This prevents degassing of
the product during and after the sealing phase. De-
gassing may create air pockets inside the package.
4. Sealing
The sealing bars are pressed against the vacuum
bag and melt the bag closed.
During the sealing process, the material of the va-
cuum bag is heated and pressed together to create
a hermetic seal. The programming of this function
takes place in seconds.
Optionally, a replacement sealing bar can be installed
with one sealing wire and one cut-off wire. The pur-
pose of the cut-off wire is to remove the excess foil
from the remaining flap.
Decompressing
The vacuum is removed from the vacuum chamber
by letting air into the chamber.
5.
Soft-Air
This function is set and displayed in seconds and al-
lows air from outside to slowly enter the chamber so
the vacuum bag will slowly be shaped around the
product. This prevents sharp edges of the product
from puncturing the foil and causing leaks. If Red
meat is activated, this function is not available.
6. Opening the
vacuum cham-
ber
After the program has ended, the text FINISHED is
displayed for 3 seconds. The lid opens and the stand-
ard program view is displayed.
7. Removing the
product
The operator can remove the packaged product from
the work surface.
4.2.2 General Functions
Function Pictogram Operation
Cleaning of the
pump oil
The pump cleaning program ensures that the pump is thoroughly
rinsed. During the program, the pump and oil reach the operat-
ing temperature, so the oil and moisture are separated and any
contamination is filtered. The high temperature causes any mois-
ture in the pump to evaporate, thus minimising the risk of corro-
sion.
Description of the Machine 16
Function Pictogram Operation
External Vacu-
um
This function allows special food containers to be vacuumed out-
side the machine.
The vacuum for this program is set at a fixed value of 99 % with
liquid control (if available). The program runs for 15 minutes or
until stopped.
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.
Consult Replacing the Sealing Wire on page 32 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 34).
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.

6.1.8 Program Settings Parameters
6.1.8.1 Vacuum
During the cycle, the air is removed from the chamber until the set percentage or value in mBar or
hPa has been reached.
The set value can only be reached if the product does not start boiling. For more
information, refer to Liquid Control (optional) on page 23.
1. Use the
◄
and
▶
buttons to scroll to the parameter Vacuum.
The screen displays the current vacuum parameter setting.
2. Press the
▲
or
▼
button to adjust the value.
The vacuum parameter can be set from 30 % to 99 %.
3. Press the
▶
to program another parameter or to go to Save settings.
6.1.8.2 Liquid Control (optional)
The boiling point of fluids decreases when the pressure is reduced, see Vapour Pressure Curve of
Water on page 46. As a result, a product may start boiling during the vacuum process. This may
contaminate the machine and reduces the weight and quality of the product to be packaged. If the
Liquid Control option is enabled, the machine will vacuum until the set vacuum is reached. If the
product reaches the boiling point before the set vacuum is reached, the machine will proceed to the
next step of the cycle. The Liquid Control option requires a special sensor, which is not available in
the standard configuration of the machine.
The set vacuum value can only be reached if the product does not start boiling.
Operation 23
1. Use the
◄
and
▶
buttons to scroll to the parameter Liquid control.
The screen displays the current liquid control parameter setting.
2. Press the
▲
or
▼
button to adjust the value.
The vacuum parameter can be set On or Off.
3. Press the
▶
to program another parameter or to go to Save settings.
The Liquid Control function prevents excessive fluid from being drawn out of the product. This
means that if the product reaches the boiling point, the machine will proceed to the next step of the
cycle. Depending on the moisture content, the manner in which moisture is bound, the available
surface for evaporation and the temperature, the end vacuum percentage might be limited and
there might be too much residual oxygen content present in the package. If the product/process
requires packaging with a low residual oxygen content, despite the high moisture content, there are
two options:
1. Lower the product temperature. This allows for a deeper vacuum to be reached before the
product reaches the boiling point.
2. Use the Liquid Control+ option.
6.1.8.3 Vacuum+ time (optional)
When air inclusions appear in the product, it may be desirable to prolong the vacuum time after
reaching the maximum vacuum. Because of the evaporation, a minor shock wave may occur,
pushing all remaining air from the bag. This process is meant to let enclosed air escape from the
product. The Vacuum+ time is set in seconds. The best way to determine the right time is trial and
error.
The Vacuum+ option can only be activated if the vacuum value is set to maximum (99 %
or 99.8 % for the ).
1. Use the
◄
and
▶
buttons to scroll to the parameter Vacuum plus.
The screen displays the current vacuum plus parameter setting.
2. Press the
▲
or
▼
button to adjust the value.

• from 0.1 s to 5.0 s (optional Liquid control On);
• from 1 s to 60 s (Liquid control Off or not available).
3. Press the
▶
to program another parameter or to go to Save settings.
6.1.8.4 Seal
This is the time that the sealing wire and/or the cut-off wire are heated. The longer the time, the
more heat is transferred to the bag.

button to adjust the value.
The vacuum parameter can be set from 0.1 s to 4.0 s.
3. Press the
▶
to program another parameter or to go to Save settings.
6.1.8.5 Red Meat (optional)
The Red Meat option is especially designed for the packaging of fresh meat. Degassing the
product during the vacuum process may result in the formation of air pockets inside the package.
The Red Meat option prevents degassing of the product during and after the sealing phase.
The Red Meat option can be set for each program individually. If the Red Meat option is enabled in
a program, it will not be possible to enable the Soft-air option in that program.
6.1.8.6 Soft Air
This is the time that air is softly released into the chamber after sealing has taken place.
The Soft Air option can not be enabled in a program if the Red Meat option is enabled.
To set the Soft Air function, follow the steps below:
1. Use the
◄
and
▶
buttons to scroll to the parameter Soft Air.
The screen displays the current soft air parameter setting.

6.1.10 Guidelines for Function Values
For each function, values can be set if you are authorized as an owner. In order to understand the
consequence of the set value, the table below explains the consequences of giving a low or high
value for each function.
For the values in the table below, the following rule of thumb applies to setting a value in mbar.
These values may vary slightly, depending on the humidity.
• 99 % = 10 mbar
• 0% = 1013 mbar
Function Range Conditions
Vacuum 30 – 99% Rule of thumb: the higher the vacuum, the less oxygen re-
mains in the package and the longer the shelf life of the
product. There are exceptions to this rule.
Liquid Control 30 – 99%
If the pressure is reduced, the boiling point of liquids will
be decreased. As a result, a product may start boiling.
This can cause contamination of the machine, and will
reduce the weight and quality of the product to be pack-
aged.
By enabling the Liquid Control function, this special
sensor will detect the evaporation point, and the program
will stop vacuum extracting and proceed to the next step
in the packaging process. The value that can be set is the
maximum achievable vacuum value. Please keep in mind
that this maximum vacuum value can only be achieved as
long as the product does not start boiling.
Vacuum+ 0 – 60 s
or 0.1 – 5.0 s
This is the time the vacuum extracting will continue after
the maximum vacuum has been reached. By adding time,
a vacuum level of 99,8% can be reached. Vacuum+ time
also helps trapped air to escape from the product. Please
note that the vacuum must be set to the maximum.
When liquid control is activated the vacuum + time can
only been set between 0.1 and 5.0 seconds.
Red meat (Op-
tional)
ON- OFF
When packaging pieces of fresh meat, the product can
continue to degas during the sealing phase. Since the
opening of the vacuum bag is already closed, air pockets
may form inside the package after decompressing.
This function can prevent the formation of these air pock-
ets.
Operation 26
Function Range Conditions
Seal time 0.3 – 4.0 s
This is the time that the sealing wires and/or the cut-off
wire are heated. The longer the time, the more heat is
transferred to the bag.
Cleaning of the
pump
15 min. Fixed value.
The vacuum in the chamber must be at least 30% at the moment of sealing.
If the pressure is reduced, the boiling point of liquids will be decreased (see Vapour Pressure
Curve of Water on page 46). As a result, a product may start boiling. This can cause
contamination of the machine, and 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. If bubbles are forming or the product starts to boil, you
should immediately proceed to the next step in the cycle. A higher vacuum can be achieved by
letting products cool down sufficiently prior to starting the vacuuming process.
If the machine is equipped with the Liquid Control option, the control will automatically proceed to
the next step if the product starts boiling.
When packaging moisture-containing products, it is important to run the pump cleaning program
at least once a week. When moisture-containing products are vacuumed on a daily basis, it is
recommended to run the pump cleaning program at the end of every day.

7.7.3 Removing Oil, Refilling Oil
This section describes how to remove oil from the pump and how to refill the oil.
Maintenance 37
See Overview on page 36 for the pump fitted in the machine and an overview of the 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.
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 filler plug.
5. Add oil until the oil level is between the minimum and maximum levels of the oil sight glass.
6. Replace the oil filler plug.
7.7.4 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 vacuum problems or as specified in Maintenance Schedule on page
31.

7.7.5 Running the Pump Cleaning Program
The pump cleaning program runs the vacuum pump for 15 minutes. During the program, 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.
Maintenance 39
It is advisable to run the program 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 program every week. If you package moisture-containing products, such as
soups and sauces, the pump cleaning program should be run every day.
1. Select the pump cleaning program.
Press the Pump cleaning program and Settings button.
2. Close the lid to start the pump cleaning program.
The pump cleaning program will run for 15 minutes up to 100%.
