2.1.1 Use as prescribed
There are two versions of the machine available:
§
machine without an inert gas system K5 type
machine with an inert gas system K5N type
Both versions of the machine are intended for vacuum packaging solid and liquid goods, mainly
foodstuffs such as meats, sausage, etc. However, they can also be used for non-food products (medical
devices, electrical and mechanical components).
IMPORTANT
Both of these machines can be dangerous if they are not used properly or as directed. In order
to ensure that the machines are used as prescribed, it is also important to comply with the
installation, operation and maintenance conditions specified by the manufacturer.
2.1.1.1 Machine without an inert gas system (K5 type)
The K5 machine is used for the products described above. It is not suitable for products which are
sensitive to pressure as they would be damaged by the vacuum and the tightly applied packaging
plastic.
2.1.1.2 Machine with an inert gas system (K5N type)
The K5N machine is used for the products described above.
Advantages of applying inert gas
§
This enables products which are sensitive to pressure to be packed without any risk of damage. The
products keep longer and maintain their natural colours.
DANGER
In line with international regulations, high-pressure gases may only be fed via a reducer valve!
DANGER
If you used nitrogen and/or carbon dioxide, it is imperative that the room is well ventilated!
