Bursting bags!
► Too much compressed air can cause the bags to burst and lead to serious injuries.
► Before residual emptying or a type change, set the compressed air supply to a
suitable value with the processing pressure regulator.
The suitable compressed air value for the normal operating mode of the machine
and residual emptying depends on the type of bag and type of product. The
machine operating company must determine the appropriate compressed air supply
and notify its staff.
HAVER & BOECKER recommends that the operating company attaches an
overview to the machine stating the appropriate compressed air value for each type
of product and bag.

• The workplaces must be fitted out with illumination which is appropriate to ensure
the safety and protection of the health of the employees and which complies with
the currently valid local regulations. Reduction in the vision of individuals caused,
for example, by advancing age, can place a greater demand on the quality of the
illumination required (for example a higher illumination level and higher demands
upon glare limitation).
If the machine is included in the safety concept of a system, the operating company is
responsible for the following:
• fit the required safety devices and integrate the system into the safety circuit.
• Completeness and functional readiness of all safety devices

The slide valve [19] is located between the filling box [6] and filling tube [15]. The slide
valve [19] blocks the filling channel.
In the filling area [10], the slide valve [19] initially opens the filling channel fully. The
product flows into the bag, as so-called ‘coarse feed’ [20].
After a few seconds, the slide valve [19] reduces the opening of the filling channel. The
product flows into the bag more slowly, as so-called ‘fine feed’ [21].
The slide vale [19] closes completely [22], just before the bag reaches its target weight.
An aeration nozzle is located between the slide valve [19] and the filling tube [15] which
conveys the product residues into the bag.
The machine control records the target weight of the bag.
IMPORTANT
If the target weight of the bag is not reached, the buffer [16] remains lowered. The bag
discharge [18] does not discharge the bag to the discharge position [13]. In the filling
area [10] the machine fills the bag again. If the target weight of the bag has not been
reached after three fillings, the buffer [16] is raised to the rejected bag position [12]. The
bag discharge [18] tips forward and discharges the bag.

monitorin Vibrations may occur when the coarse feed is
switched on. The vibrations can have the effect
of moving through the weigher and triggering
the production of bags of the wrong weight.
This is prevented by setting the blind time.
Input: s
1 .0060 Cut-out time For setting a time period during which the
for fine feed weighing function between the coarse feed and
monitoring fine feed is switched off.
If the dosing device has been switched from
coarse feed to fine feed, the system shakes.
The vibrations can have the effect of striking
through the weigher and triggering the
production of bags of the wrong weight. By
setting the cut-out time, this is prevented.
Input: s
1 .0140 Correction For setting the weight that the bag loses during
weight discharge and transportation.
Target weight, underweight limit
and overweight limit are corrected by
this value.
If a check weigher initiates the correction, the
manually entered correction value is
overwritten.
If you wish to retain the last correction value in
the check weigher after an interruption in
production, the parameter fix value must
be set to No.
If you wish to retain the manually entered
correction value in the check weigher after an
interruption in production, the parameter fix
value must be set to Yes.

Welding current
► Welding currents can destroy load cells, antifriction bearings and other electrical
components on the machine.
► Do not channel welding currents from the workpiece join through load cells,
antifriction bearings or other electrical components (e.g. PCs, MECs, PLCs). Do not
perform welding operations within a 2 m radius of any load cells! If you are not able
to observe this minimum distance, remove the load cell before starting work!
Make sure there is sufficient potential equalisation (min. 16 mm²) between the
individual components!
Use only one set of welding equipment at any one time!
Position the workpiece join as close as possible to the welding point on the
component that you wish to weld!
Before performing welding, burning or grinding work, prepare the machine as follows.
1. Clean any dust and flammable materials from the machine and the surrounding
area.
2. Cover all rubber and plastic components to prevent the welding sparks from causing
any damage.
3. Make sure that the work place is well ventilated, while avoiding drafts.
4. Switch off the machine and secure against accidental start-up.
5. Switch off all electronic components or disconnect all the electrical connections
from the component you wish to work on.
6. Make sure that the welding points are metallically bright.
7. Make sure that the workpiece has a clear path into the welding zone.
