Models
This manual describes the installation,
operation and maintenance of the TS-150
Heat Sealer.
The model reference and its specifications
are shown on the nameplate affixed to the
machine.
This appliance has been designed and
manufactured in accordance with the
following European Directives 98/37/EEC,
73/23/EEC and to the EN 60335.2.45
standard.
Installation
For optimum performance and long service
life of the machine, follow the instructions
contained in this manual rigorously.
Location
Place the applicance in such a way that it is
perfectly levelled.
Electrical connection
1- MACHINE CHARACTERISTICS
The heat sealer is supplied to operate on a
single-phase 230V, 50/60Hz current.
Before plugging the heat sealer into a
mains outlet, check for a match between
the mains voltage and the appliance
voltage as specified on the nameplate.
2- CABLE CHARACTERISTICS
Each TS-150 heat sealer comes complete
with a 1.5m long thermoplastic-sheathed
electric cable.
For connecting this machine, prepare a
20A, 2P+T wall outlet. EARTHING IS
OBLIGATORY.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Place the film roll as shown on Figure A.
Turn the main switch on, its pilot lamp will
light. Wait for 5 to 10 minutes, until the
machine operating temperature is reached.
When the sealer is ready to operate, the led
on the upper part of the cover will turn on.
Operation
WARNING: Do not touch the welding plate.
Danger of burns.
- Select the adequate support for the type
of tray to be sealed and insert it into the
casing.
- Put the tray on its support.
- Smoothly pull the film over the whole tray.
- Lower the welding plate.
- Press for about 2 seconds, to have the
film sealed and cut.
- Remove the tray, by introducing your
hand under it. Allow the seal to cool down
for a few seconds.
Setting of the welding temperature
WARNING: Before adjusting the welding
temperature, make sure the machine has
been switched off.
By default, the machine is set for sealing
polypropylene trays »140ºC. If you are
using a different material and need to
adjust the welding temperature, proceed as
follows:
- Switch the machine off.
- Remove the plastic cap from the top of
the machine.
- Remove the screw that was protected by
the plastic cap.
- With a screwdriver introduced into the
orifice of the cover, set the desired
temperature. Figure B shows the
temperature scale.
Maintenance
- If the power cord gets damaged and must
be replaced, such a change may only be
done by a SAMMIC-approved technical
assistance service.
- Before cleaning, servicing or repairing this
appliance, it is absolutely necessary to
unplug it from the mains.
- Do not clean the outside of the machine
under a direct jet of water.
- Wipe the external surface of the machine
and the welding plate with a damp cloth.
Never use abrasive products for cleaning
the welding plate. In the event of residues
sticking on the welding plate, which will
not come off with a damp cloth, remove
them with a plastic scraper; never with a
metal one.
Troubleshooting
The electronic board includes a led
indicating when a signal is transmitted to
the heating resistor. This led permits 3
fault modes to be detected:
- Short-circuited thermocouple.
- Broken thermocouple.
- Damaged resistor.
If any of the above faults ever occurs, it will
be detected by the electronic board within
2 minutes approximately and the 'resistor
energised' indicator led will turn off.
