10.5 Packing with Integrated Inert Gas
System
l
Open main valve on inert gas cylinder.
l
Place the vacuum bag with its contents in the
vacuum chamber so that the mouth of the bag lies
flat on the seal pad (38) between the red marks (40)
and the gas flushing nozzles (41) project into the
bag.
l
Select the desired packaging program with the UP
(6)
or DOWN (7) key
Detailed program schedules can be found in

Intermediate release of pressure
For products which even when processed by the
method of “evacuation to vaporisation” are difficult to
pack due to foam forming on the surface of the
product, intermediate release of pressure is a possible
solution.
In this method the bag is laid on the product before
sealing and foam formation is thereby inhibited.
Note
Intermediate ventilation should only be used in
exceptional cases and for this reason must be activated
by the
Customer Service in the service
program.
