11 - Pump oil drying cycle
EN
The heart of the machine is the vacuum pump.
Sometimes products are packaged at inappropriate
temperatures, i.e. at much more than 3°C, which can cause
significant levels of humidity to be sucked in together with
the air. Humidity in water vapour form accumulates inside
the pump and turns into water once the pump has cooled.
Especially during prolonged periods of inactivity, the water
oxidises the internal surfaces of the pump and forms residues
that can in some cases cause the rotor or blades to jam.
The vacuum drawer indicates:
a) When packaging products that are too liquid or warm
via an indicator light coming
b) When performance is affected due to the frequent
packaging of too liquid or warm products to the point
where a good vacuum level cannot be guaranteed. In
this case, the indicator light
point a dehumidifying cycle of the pump oil is required.

WARNING
If further dehumidifying cycles are indicated as being
necessary, the machine enters an obligatory cooling cycle
for one hour.
Follow the following simple instructions carefully in order
to prolong the machine's life and guarantee optimum
packaging cycles every time.
1) Always package products when they are cold, if possible
between 3-4°C. The warmer the product is, the shorter
its conservation life (due to bacteria formation) and the
greater the condensation levels inside the pump.
2) Carefully follow indications on liquid product levels
when packaged in bags or containers.
The warnings and their meanings are detailed in the
"Troubleshooting" chapter below.
