SILICONE HOLDER AND LID GASKET MAINTENANCE
Replace the rubber silicone holder
The silicone holder must be inspected weekly for roughness on the silicone rubber (mainly caused by burning by the
sealing wire). If irregularities appear then the silicone rubber must be replaced.
Average maintenance cycle for silicone rubber is at least once every 6 months
(This indication refers to regular use of the machine with standard products. No rights can be derived from this indication)
4. Remove the old silicone rubber from the holder.
5. Cut a new piece of silicone rubber the same size as the old one. The same
size is very important, too short or too long will cause problems with sealing.
6. Place the new piece in the silicone holder. Ensure that the silicone rubber is
completely and evenly placed in the groove. It is also important that the
surface of the silicone rubber is smooth after it is in place and is shows no
signs of tension.
Replace lid gasket
The lid gasket ensures that the vacuum chamber is completely sealed during the
machine cycle. This is essential to achieve a maximum vacuum. The lid gasket wears
due to the extreme pressure differences and must be replaced regularly. Inspect the lid
rubber weekly for tears or damage.
Average maintenance cycle for silicone rubber is at least once every 6 months
(this indication refers to regular use of the machine, on average 5 hours a day and with standard products.
No rights can be derived from this indication)
The length of the new lid gasket is measured against the old rubber. If the lid gasket is too short or too long it can cause
problems closing the lid or leak.
The gasket must be placed evenly and without tension in the holder. The ends must be cut straight and must be laid
tightly against each other to avoid leakage.
