control system). This value can be set in %. The percentage
indicates the depth of the vacuum. This is in relation to an
outside atmosphere of 0%. In case of the Advanced Control
System (ACS), the value is indicated in percentages, mbar or
hPa.
Vacuum+ Vacuum+ is only available if the vacuum percentage is set to
the maximum.
The Vacuum+ option continues the vacuum process for an
additional time to allow any entrapped air to escape from the
product.
The Vacuum+ option is only available on sensor-controlled
machines.
Gas (optional)
After applying vacuum, a gas is injected into the package

of the gas function can be set in %, mbar or hPa or time,
depending on the control type of the machine.
