Inspection of Seals
It is important to regularly inspect the seals of the slicer to ensure that your equipment is in compliance
with section 5.34.9.3 of the NSF/ Ansi 8 standards. Damaged or cracked seals can contain harmful bacteria
that can cause a number of illnesses. If the seals of your slicer are found to be compromised or missing, it is
necessary to remove the slicer from service and contact an authorized service agency or Univex.
Full thorough inspections should be conducted not exceeding 6 month periods and is recommended to
be performed by an authorized service agency. However as the regular operator of the machine seals
should be reviewed during normal daily cleaning and reported upon if found to be worn.
Refer to the below figure 13 for seal locations. Inspect seals for degradation, cracks, tears or missing parts.
