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.
OPERATOR INDICATOR LIGHT
Since the sealing plate is only activated when a load is applied,
a red neon light (2) 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
(3) 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 differ-
ent 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.
GFCI
Effective on machines produced after June 2015 (Serial # past
1506XXXXX), to maintain circuit protection and integrity, a GFCI
(4) is installed in the electrical box, and may need to be reset if
wrapper gets wet or other ground faults arise. Do NOT reset the
GFCI, if visible seal plate damage is present.
THERMISTOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL
Due to the rapid response of the heating foil and residual heat that can remain from previous cycles, a thermistor is incorpo-
rated 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.
