Page 4: General Test Method
Page 4 of 12 General test method The most common way to use the Pack-Vac™ is the bubble emission test. Fill unit with enough water to submerge package when expanded. Water level will rise as pack- age is expanded under vacuum. -
Page 5: Empty Bag Test Method

Page 6: Altitude Simulation Test Method
Air cargo holds are typically pressurized to only 9,000 feet (2,743 meters). The Pack-Vac™ can reveal potential weaknesses in the package before shipping. Altitude simulation can be done wet or dry. Vacuum levels can be converted to altitude with chart. Alti- tude reading will be a differential from current altitude. -

Pack-Vac™ Cleaning The Pack-Vac™ tank should be cleaned on a regular basis with mild soap and water to remove mineral deposits before they degrade the clarity of the plastic. Using water with lower mineral content will delay mineral build-up. Commercially available plastic polishers and cleaners by Novus can be used.
