SEAL BEAMS AND COUNTER BEAMS
To achieve a quality seal, it is necessary that the seal beam and counter beam are in good condition.
1. Clean the seal and counter beams daily with a dry cloth.
2. Replace the Teflon tape on the seal beam if damaged and replace the sealing wire if kinked.
3. Replace the silicone rubber seal if it is burned in.
Depending on the type of machine, there are three seal beam versions:
1. Single-seal beam (T2).
2. Stainless steel seal beam.
3. Aluminum seal beam.
SINGLE-SEAL BEAM
REMOVE THE SEALING WIRE AND TEFLON TAPE AS FOLLOWS:
1. Grab the seal beam in the middle and pull it straight up and out of the machine.
2. The beam is held in place by 2 pins; some force may be necessary to loosen the beam.
3. Remove the brown Teflon tape that is applied to the seal beam.
4. Remove the two screws on the underside of the seal beam; this releases the sealing wire.
5. Clean the seal beam thoroughly and remove any glue residue off the Teflon tape.
