Automatic
[Parameter of the control unit]
If the function Automatic is set, the machine will reach the optimum
evacuation time and pressure depending on the product.
The automatic evacuation is suitable for the following cases:
• Achieving the best possible vacuum for long shelf life.
• Packing of products for which the optimum evacuation pressure
is not known.
• Packing of the same product but one which has varying proper-
ties (e.g. varying moisture content, varying temperature).
If the evacuation is automatic the value for Automatic sensitivity can
be adapted to the product.
Automatic sensitivity
[Parameter of the control unit]
Determines the evacuation time and the evacuation pressure
reached, when evacuating with the Automatic function. The sensitiv-
ity is adjustable from 1 to 10. The lower the sensitivity, the lower the
evacuation pressure reached.
High value for Automatic sensitivity (value 10):
• Is suitable for very moist or fluid products.
• Evacuation process ends early.
• Evacuation pressure reached in the pack is high.
Low value for Automatic sensitivity (value 1):
• Is suitable for dry products.
• Evacuation process ends late.
• Evacuation pressure reached in the pack is low.
Configuration code
The configuration code determines the machine characteristics and
functions. It can be shown in the display. The configuration code is
preset at the factory, modifications can only be made by the MULTI-
VAC service department.
Cooling down Sealing
[Parameter of the control unit]
Value for the cooling down time of the seal seam. The vacuum in the
chamber and the sealing pressure are maintained for this length of
time. The seal seam can harden. The sealing is switched off during
this time.
Counter-pressure bar
The counter-pressure bar is part of the sealing. During the sealing
procedure, the sealing bar is pressed against the counter-pressure
bar. . Depending on the machine equipment, there may be a sealing
bar instead of the counter-pressure bar.
Cycle end
[Optional] [Parameter of the control unit]
Defines if evacuation or gas flushing takes place before sealing in
the MRP process.
