5.  General Information 

 

5.1 

Intended use 

The GreenVAC system may only be used for its intended purpose (i.e. vacuuming refrigerated food 

items). 

 

5.2 

Application Area GreenVAC-lid 

The lid is made of a high-tech plastic material and has been developed for the vacuuming of cooled 

products with a core temperature of +2°C / 36 °F.  

 

5.3 

Labelling of the product 

On all GreenVAC lids, you will find a signet for the date of manufacture. This is located on one of the 

4 outer corners of the lid. It indicates the year and month of manufacture of the lid. (see 3.3) 

 

5.4 

Hazardous area 

 

If the GreenVAC cover has not been inserted correctly, cleaned, or stored, there is a risk 

of breakage or damage. The lid may burst under vacuum!  If your lid is broken or 

damaged, it should be discarded immediately. 

 

 

 

 

 

6.  Seal assembly made easy 

 

 

- Place the lid on the clean table in front of you. 

- Carefully place the clean seal on the table. 

- Make sure that the placement fits in the 2 grooves. 

- Carefully press the seal all around. 

- Smooth any bead and press down well. 

- Turn the cover over and insert the valve. 

 

 

If the cover has to be pressed into the container, this is a sign that the seal has not been 

installed correctly. Always check that the gasket is seated correctly. Do not use the lid if 

the gasket is not installed or seated correctly.
