USER MANUAL PREMIER & ULTRA SERIES
MACHINE MAINTENANCE
GENERAL
Regular, thorough maintenance is essential for extending the machine’s life, for preventing malfunctions and for achieving
an optimal packaging result. If the machine is used intensively (more than 5 hours per day) then it is a professional service is
recommended every 6 months. In other cases one complete service per year is suffi cient (depending on location, environment
and products).
There are however also small maintenance activities that must be carried out more regularly and that the user can do himself.
The following page contains an overview of these activities.
• The machine must always be completely voltage free before any maintenance is carried out on it. Remove the plug from the
wall socket or put the master switch in the O position.
• If the machine is not functioning properly or if it produces strange noises, turn it off immediately with the ON/OFF switch and
contact the supplier or PureVac.
• If the machine is equipped with a gas fl ush system then always close the main cock during standard maintenance activities.
Always take care that the pressure on the pressure reducing valve on the gas bottle is never higher than 1 atmosphere/
ATO before, during and after the maintenance activities. A higher pressure may cause irreparable damage to the machine.
NEVER use fl ammable gasses or gas mixtures containing oxygen.
• When cleaning transparent lids (if applicable), NEVER use cleaning agents containing solvents. Check at least once a week
if there are cracks in the lid. In case of cracks, turn off the machine immediately and contact the supplier or PureVac.
• High pressure cleaning is not permitted for cleaning the machine. High pressure cleaning can cause considerable damage to
electronic and other parts of the machine.
• Water may never be permitted to enter either the extraction nozzle of the chamber or the blow-off opening of the pump. This
would cause irreparable damage to the pump.
• Larger services must always be carried out by an authorised supplier.
• The Premier machines are designed for a maximum of 5 hours operation per day. Other machines are designed for a
maximum of 8 hours per day. The supplier or PureVac cannot be held responsible for any malfunctions or defects if these
operation time limits are clearly exceeded without consultation.
• The machine must be moved or transported in an upright position. The machine may NOT be tilted as it can cause damage
to the pump.
• The supplier or PureVac cannot be held responsible for any malfunctions or defects if the maintenance instructions in this
manual are not followed.
• Contact the supplier or PureVac if there are any doubts or questions about maintenance or malfunctions.
