3.4.4 How to handle filled tubing
The HOT LIPS TUBE SEALER can handle liquid filled tubing. Typically, a clamp or plug
is used to prevent the liquid from leaking while being sealed. The liquid will be
displaced by the specially contoured jaws and the seal area will be free of liquid or
bubbles. Any clamps, plugs or seals should not be inside the width of the machine.
WARNING
Always use appropriate personal protective equipment during operation
and maintenance of
HOT LIPS TUBE SEALER.
CAUTION
Do not spill liquid into
HOT LIPS TUBE SEALER. This can cause serious
damage and will void the warranty.
NOTICE
High pressures can be generated if the liquid in the seal area has no
place to go when it is clamped down by the sealing jaws. Make sure that
the liquid can be displaced up or downstream of the seal and ensure that
the temporary clamps or plugs are secure.
No clamps, plugs
or seals in red zone
