Setting up the machine

5 Setting up the machine
5.1

Site requirements

The requirements for the site are as follows:
NOTICE
The machine should not be operated in potentially explosive atmospheres!

The site must be dry and well-ventilated.
NOTICE
If the humidity is too high, problems may arise with the control or vacuum systems due to
condensation.

The ambient temperature should be between +10 °C and +35 °C.
Lower ambient temperatures will result in excessively high pump starting currents, with consequent
tripping of fuses. With higher ambient temperatures cooling of the motors and electronics can no longer
be guaranteed.
If water is used in the vicinity of the site, the Vacuum Packaging Machine should be protected against
the direct impact spraying and splashing water or water jets.
5.2

Foundations

A horizontal industrial floor is adequate as a foundation. Slight vibrations may carry from the vacuum
pump to the floor.
5.3

Safety space

Leave a space of at least 50 cm right around the machine for operating and maintenance work. There
must be clearance of at least 10 cm above the lid when it is opened wide.
