operation after the machine switch (3) has been switched on and the two manual valves
(2.1 / 2.2) have been reset to RELEASE.
The individual suckers must be connected to the vacuum reserve tanks by the vacuum
couplings (6).
In order to check the tightness of the hose lines and the individual suckers, either a larger
plate or several smaller plates of a gas-impermeable material must be present. These
plates are held onto the individual suckers and then sucked on. To do so, the manual
valves (2.1 / 2.2) must be set to SUCTION using the remote control. A vacuum of at least -
0.65 bar should build up immediately in each vacuum circuit. If this happens, the machine
switch (3) must be switched off. Read the achieved vacuum from the two inspection vacu-
um meters (5.1 / 5.2) and compare it with a reading taken about 15 minutes later. If there
is no discrepancy, the Vakuflex 280 is leak-tight and safe to operate. If a discrepancy of
more than 5% occurs, the Vakuflex 280 must be checked to find the leak (see Trouble-
shooting).
Commissioning is complete once the machine switch (3) has been switched back on.
Attention!
The device must
NEVER
be commissioned when there is only
one
functioning
vacuum circuit.
