Power connection and cable This serves to connect the machine to the power supply. The machine is supplied without an electrical plug. Gas flush system connector (optional) After applying vacuum, a gas is injected into the packaging to create a modified atmosphere to protect the shape of the product or increase the shelf life of the product. - Page 17 Step Process phase Operation Vacuum+ Vacuum+ is only available if the vacuum percentage is set to the maximum. The Vacuum+ option continues the vacuum process for an additional time to allow any entrapped air to escape from the product. The Vacuum+ option is only available on sensor-controlled machines.
- Page 18 Step Process phase Operation Sequential Vacuum This function is only available on machines with the ACS. (optional) With sequential vacuum, you can alternate vacuum and pause steps to allow air trapped inside a product to escape from the core. A maximum of 5 steps can be programmed. Multi-Cycle Vacuum This function is only available on machines with a 10-PCS.
