Vacuum Extraction

For vacuum extraction we recommend the use of a small
collection jar (1,5 l) where the vacuum builds up much
faster. The target vacuum is preset on the control panel.
Vacuum production can be controlled either via a pedal
regulator or automatically by the device.
• Slide the green vacuum extraction tube on the
horizontal connection piece of the double socket
nipple.
• Connect the extraction cup to the other end of the
tube.
User-controlled vacuum build-up
• Connect the pedal regulator to port
• Turn on the Atmoforte 350/Record 500 : the indicator
in the power switch must light up !
• Adjust pedal regulator to full heel stop.
• Push one of keys
vacuum (the vacuum is given in bars).
• Attach the extraction cup and increase the vacuum
step by step with the pedal regulator. The pedal will
remain in the position in which you remove your foot.
Automatic vacuum build-up
In the automatic mode, the Atmoforte 350 / Record 500
builds up the vacuum at an even pace, so that the target
vacuum is reached in approx. 2 minutes. An audio signal
indicates that the selected vacuum has been attained. It
is possible to switch to the user-controlled vacuum build-
up at any time either by actuating the pedal regulator or
by selecting another vacuum setting.
• Turn on the Atmoforte 350/Record 500 : the indicator
in the power switch must light up!
• Adjust pedal regulator to full toe stop.
• Push the "0" key and, holding the key depressed,
select the desired target vacuum (e.g. 0.8 bar).
• Attach the extraction cup.
Beginning at -0,2 bar, the Atmoforte 350/Record 500 starts
producing the vacuum step by step. An audio signal
sounds when the selected vacuum has been attained after
approx. minutes.
