2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

2.1 Installation

The equipment can be used in any working environment that is dry and without excessive dust, according to the chap.1.6

Place the sealer on a work surface, leaving an enough large space in front of it for the bags to run over and on the sides

the space for the introduction and exit of the bags from the machine.

Be sure that the heat sealer is at least 30 mm from the back wall in order to allow a perfect release of the heat produced

inside and that on the sides there is the necessary space to allow a an easy loading and unloading of the bag that are

being sealed.

2.2 Pouches introduction adjustment

To easily open the sealed medical pouches, it is necessary to leave a free edge over the seal.

According to the specific needs, it is possible to obtain a free edge from 0 to 30 mm. doing as follows:

- loosen the locking knob (n.1-pict.2.1) and move it:

on the right to reduce the free edge over the seal (min. 0 mm)

on the left to increase the free edge over the seal (max to 30 mm)

-at the end of this operation, lock the knob (n.1-pict.2.1)

2.3 Electrical wiring

Check that the main luminous switch (n1-pict.2.2) is switch off, in the " 0" position (OFF).

Introduce the socket (n.3-pict.2.2) of the main power supply cable (n.4-pict.2.2) into the plug of the general switch (n.2-

pict.2.2) before inserting the plug of the supply cable (n.4-pict.2.2) into the single phase socket.

Respecting the chapter 1.6, insert the plug of the main power supply (n.4-pict.2.2) into the single phase socket with

protected earth from a magnetothermic switch, after checking that the data of the plate are the same of the power supply

net.

2.4 Switch on the machine

Switch on the machine through the main GREEN luminous switch (n.1-pict.2.2) on position “ I” (ON).

The display lightens and the sealer does an autodiagnostic on the main components of the machine:

After the display shows:

-on the first line, the result of the temperature probe control ( PROBE OK),

-on the second line the firmware version ( Ve.018_P)

After the display shows the sealing bars real temperature (fist line of the display) and the set temperature

(second line of the display):

pict.2.3

After display shows switching on the machine, the sealing bars begin their heating; when the current and set temperature

are at the same value, the sealers is ready to be used.

The temperature stabilization takes some minutes.

2.5 First employ

WARNING:

-In order to avoid imperfect seals, bad functioning and/or machine stops, the operator always must

introduce into the machine the pouch well stretched as shown on the pict.2.4.

pict.2.4

-The DIN 58953 P7 rules requires the pouches can be filled up max until ¾ of their length

-Do not apply any kind of label and/or adhesive on the pouches near the sealing area

-For proper operation of the sealing machine, avoiding alarms, it is important that the pouches are

introduced with a relative distance not less than 50 mm.

After switching on the machine (see par.2.4) and reaching the set sealing temperature, the machine is ready to do the

first seal.

When introducing the first pouch into the sealing machine through the infeed guide the motor will automatically start

running and the pouch will be feeded into the machine.

If the operator does not introduce any pouches into the sealing machine for approx. 10 sec, the gearmotor will stop

automatically, in order to avoid useless consumes; it will start again running automatically when a new pouch is

introduced.
