FAS-402-CH/ FAS-602-CH Series Operating Instructions Ver. 1.05E
If there is a malfunction in the temperature sensor
The temperature sensor is designed to monitor and control heating
temperature by directly measuring the temperature of heating element.
Therefore, when the sensor tip is not positioned correctly or the sensor
is disconnected, the machine will show the error message "Poor
heating" and the lever returns to the initial position.
When replacing the consumable parts such as heating element or the
temperature sensor, please be sure to position the temperature sensor
correctly.
When the fluoro glass sheet, silicone rubber becomes
damaged
The fluoro glass sheet, silicone rubber will start to wear with use. Once
they are damaged, it will be difficult to achieve smooth and strong
seals. Thoroughly read how to replace the parts and be careful when
doing so.
Dust in the sealing area
Dust will prevent attainment of a smooth seal. It could also cause
damage to heating element and/or other routine maintenance parts.
Before using the machine, clean the sealing area.
The FAS-402-CH, FAS-602-CH series is an
impulse sealer
Do not become alarmed if the sealing area does not become hot after
the power switch is turned to the ON position. The machine has not
malfunctioned.
The
sealer uses an impulse method so the heating element will not
become hot just by plugging the unit in or turning the power switch to
the ON position. The heater will only become hot for an instant when
the heating process is in operation. However, after extended periods of
use, the sealing area may become hot.
Run test trials before beginning operation
Depending on the type of film being used, heating / cooling conditions
will differ. Run test trials to find the optimum sealing condition,
especially when trying to find the tightest seal possible.
