10.3.2 Equipping Vacuum Chamber for Solid Product
l
Equip the vacuum chamber with filling plates (20)
corresponding to the product being packed.
l
With high items only remove as many filling plates
as are needed to enable the cover (14) to be closed.
Note
The vacuum chamber must be dry. Take care that there
is no liquid between the filling plates
since this
prevents a good vacuum.
10.3.3 Equipping Vacuum Chamber for Liquid
Product
l
Place the inclined insert (24) in vacuum chamber
and adjust the stop (25) to the product so that the
liquid level in the bag is at least 20 mm below the
seal pad (38). If this is not properly done, liquid may
spill during evacuation, causing a faulty seal and
perhaps getting into the vacuum pump.
Note
Have products as cool as possible for packing. The
higher the temperature of damp products, the lower the
attainable vacuum due to evaporation.
Excessive vaporisation can be controlled by using the
vaporisation stages (see Heading 11, Programming).
