Safety and Warranty
thicknesses require longer times and vice versa. The time required to aspirate all the air and generate a
vacuum depends on the relationship between the dimensions of the bag and the quantity of product it contains.
Every time there is liquid inside the plate seal or inside the cup these must be immediately cleaned and dried.
Presence of liquid, in fact, may prevent perfect vacuum seal. In this case we recommend repeating the weld
one centimeter back from the first weld. Avoid putting materials in the bags that may puncture the bag during
aspiration phases.
