Operation 44
Function Range Conditions
Vacuum 0 – 99%
(for 10-prog control)
30 – 99.8%
(for ACS)
Rule of thumb: the higher the vacuum, the less oxygen
remains in the package and the longer the shelf life of
the product. There are exceptions to this rule.
Vacuum+ 0 – 99 seconds
(for 10-prog control)
0 – 20 seconds
(for ACS)
This is the time the vacuuming will continue after the
maximum vacuum has been reached. This to allow
entrapped air to escape from the product. Please note
that the vacuum must be set to the maximum.
Gas 30 – 98%
(for 10-prog control)
1 – 69%
(for ACS)
For some products it may be desirable to insert gas
into the packaging to increase the shelf life of the
product.
Gas+ 0.1 – 1 second For some products it may be desirable to insert
additional gas into the packaging to create a "balloon
packaging". This allows for a better protection of a
fragile product. The recommended value for Gas+ is
0.7 seconds.
Red meat 0.1 – 1 second When packaging large pieces of fresh meat, the
product continues to degas during the sealing phase.
Since the opening of the vacuum bag is already
closed, air pockets may form inside the package
after decompressing. This function prevents these air
pockets.
Liquid Control 0 – 99% (for 10-
prog control) 30 –
99.8% (for ACS)
If the pressure is reduced, the boiling point of liquids
will be decreased. As a result of this law of nature, a
product may start boiling. In addition to contamination
of the machine, this will reduce the weight and quality
of the product to be packaged. By enabling the Liquid
Control function, this special sensor will detect the
evaporation point, and the program will stop vacuuming
and proceed to the next step in the packaging process.
The value that can be set is the maximum achievable
vacuum value. Please keep in mind that this maximum
vacuum value can only be achieved as long as the
product does not start boiling.
Liquid Control+ 1 – 99 seconds
(for 10-prog control)
0.1 – 5.0 seconds
(for ACS)
This is the time the vacuuming will continue after
detection of the evaporation point. Because of the
evaporation, a minor shockwave may occur, pushing all
remaining air from the bag. The best way to determine
the right time is trial and error.
