Multivac C 800 vacuum chamber machine

Multivac has introduced its C 800 vacuum chamber machine, which is equipped with a 1.4 m wide chamber. This makes it suitable for long food products such as cylindrical sausages and whole fish. The C 800 is the largest single-chamber machine in the company’s portfolio.

With a sealing bar length of 780 mm and an effective chamber volume of 1400 x 780 x 170 mm, the C 800 is wider than the Multivac C 500. The sealing bars are located on the right and left sides of the cover in the C 800, as compared to the C 500, where sealing occurs in the front and back.

The machine is reliable and precise and offers consistent implementation of the Multivac Hygiene Design with stainless steel construction and a high production speed. The intuitively operated electronic control ensures a simple and reliable packing process.

In addition to the vacuum ‘quick-stop’ function, the C 800 also offers automatic progressive ventilation. This ensures that sharp or pointed products do not destroy the film pouch during ventilation.

Depending on the packaged ware and the packaging materials used, various sealing systems and vacuum pumps can be employed. In order to further extend the shelf life of the products, or to protect them against pressure points or similar danger areas, there is also the option of providing the packs with a modified atmosphere (MAP packs). Typical inert gases used are nitrogen (N₂) or carbon dioxide (CO₂).
