1.1 Manufacturing Speciﬁ cations / Description /

Intended Use (continued)

The 800rf Case Sealer is controlled from two operator

control panels located on the front left side of the case

sealer. These control panels (Electrical Control Panel

and Pneumatic Control Panel) have the most-used

controls within easy reach of the operator. The case

sealer is microprocessor-based and ﬁ rmware con-

trolled to maintain maximum and precise control over

all operations within the case sealer.

The case sealer may be operated in Random, Fixed,

or Bypass mode. A selector switch is located on the

top of the Electrical Control Panel.

• In Random mode, the case sealer automati-

cally adjusts itself for a wide range of case sizes,

providing a tape seal on the top and bottom of the

cartons. Random mode is considered the stan-

dard operating mode.

• In Fixed mode, the case sealer runs multiple

cartons of the same (ﬁ xed) size, providing a tape

seal on the top and bottom of the cartons.

• In Bypass mode, the case sealer passes certain

containers through the machine, providing a tape

seal only on the bottom of the containers. The top

of these containers is not sealed.
