Rev. 03 - 07/2015 - Cod. 1501151 - Instruction manual for vacuum chamber packaging machines Mod. C254-C308-C312-C412-C420
The machine comes standard with the following safety devices:
• Safety device to prevent the vacuum pump from overheating.
• Main switch.
• Lid switch.
• Safety fuses to prevent overloads and short-circuits.
• Vacuum pump fan cover.

2.5.2 SaFEty dEvICE that PREvENtS thE vaCUUm PUmP FROm OvERhEatINg

Your vacuum packing machine is equipped with a safety system that eliminates the risk of the pump motor
overheating.

2.5.3 maIN SWItCh

The power supply of the appliance can be disconnected from the main switch, which can also be used as an
emergency switch.

2.5.4 lId SWItCh

The lid switch eliminates the risk of the sealing bars overheating accidentally, resulting from a malfunction or
defect, when the lid is open.

2.5.5 SaFEty FUSES that PREvENt OvERlOadS aNd ShORt-CIRCUItS

The machine has safety fuses to prevent overloads and short-circuits.

2.5.6 FaN COvER FOR thE vaCUUm PUmP

The vacuum pump has a safety cover that prevents contact with the cooling fan.

2.6 hygIENE

The machine is constructed in compliance with directive EN1672-2 (hygiene requirements for food processing
machines), Regulation EC 1935/2004 and the EhEdG guidelines (European Hygienic Engineering and Design
Group). Materials, surfaces and shapes have been studied and selected so as to minimise or eliminate the risk
of exposure and infection between food and the machine user and vice versa, and to minimise or eliminate the
risk of food contamination via the operator and the machine itself.
That said, in the case of vacuum food packing, always comply with the following guidelines:
• Clean the machine thoroughly before and after use. Clean and disinfect the internal surface of the vacuum
chamber with particular attention.
• Work in a hygienic manner, avoiding direct contact between the food and the machine.
• Keep the control panels and the handling elements clean and free from grease and oils.
• Close the lid when the machine is not used: thereby preventing dust and dirt from entering the vacuum cham-
ber.
