UNPACKING
THOOUGHLY INSPECT EQUIPMENT UPON ARRIVAL.
If goods are received short or in a damaged condition, it is important that

you notify the carrier’s driver before he leaves your company and insist on a
notation of the loss or damage across the face of the freight bill. Unless this is
done, no claim can be enforced against the trans portion.
If concealed loss or damage is discovered, notify the carrier at once and
insist on an inspection. This absolutely necessary! A concealed damage report
must be made no later ten (10) days from the date the shipment was delivered.
Unless you do this, the carrier will not consider any claim for loss or damage.
The carrier’s agent will then make an inspection and grant a concealed damage
notation. If you give the transportation company a clear receipt for the goods
the have been damaged or lost in transit, you do so at your own risk and
expense.
All claims must be filed within six (6) months of delivery date or carrier
will not accept them.
We are willing to assist in every possible manner to collect claims for
loss or damage; however, this does not make Alpha-Pack responsible for

with the supervision, maintenance, or production of this machine. Additional
copes are available at your request. (Contact your distributor for this
information.) Be very careful when operating, adjusting, or servicing this
equipment. If in doubt, stop and obtain qualified help before proceeding.
INSTALLATION OF AP-1622 SEALER

Place the sealer in the desired location with the required electrical power
source available. (See power requirements.) Make certain that proper electrical
wiring is provided to guard against low voltage. If the voltage is too low, the
equipment will not function properly.
Finding the proper location is a most important function of the initial
set-up. One must take several factors into consideration:
1. Adequate power source.
2. Relationship to source of product.
3. Relationship to tunnel and any conveyors necessary to remove
finished product.
4. Convenience of operator.
If there is any doubt, get qualified assistance to do the initial installation.

Do not take any chances!
Do not attempt to install, adjust, or operate this machine without first
reading the contents of this manual. Although the design of the equipment
12

incorporates safeguards to protect operating and maintenance personnel, care
should be used in operating, adjusting, and servicing.

SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
OPERATING PANEL
POWER CONVEYOR SEALING
A. Product is placed on the film separator tray.

B. The product tray functions as a means to separate the film, allowing
placement of product between upper and lower portions of the film.
C. Move product into seal head area by pushing the product to the left.
D. Manually pull the seal head down. As the seal head meets the lower
seal pad, the machine automatically activates the seal wires. The
timer activates the magnets and is adjustable from zero (0) to three (3)
seconds.
E. Take-away Conveyor Unit-Once the seal is completed, the seal head
automatically releases and the take-away conveyor begins to run. It is
adjustable from zero (0) to three (6) seconds.
NOTE: If too much tension is on the film while the bag is being made, the
seals will, more than likely, be weak or will "blowout" in the seal area while
passing through the shrink tunnel. Make sure to relax the film tension prior to
sealing.
MOUNTING FILM
Select the proper width of center-fold film for the item being packaged,
14

allowing for width and height of package. With the package properly positioned
within the film in the sealing area, allow sufficient film to overlap the sealing
bars so that a seal may readily be made without any possibility of open areas
due to insufficient film.
Place film roll on cradle mount film rack. See page 13 for a detailed
drawing. The center-fold is to be placed away from the operator, toward the rear
of the machine. Position film roll on rack and tighten film guide nuts to hold
film roll in position.
Decide whether the film is A-wind or B-wind and thread it accordingly

through the pin perforator. Note that the perforator wheel turns freely and is not
binding. See diagram on page 13. Once threaded, separate film top from bottom
and insert product tray between. Make sure that the center-fold of film is placed
at the rear of the product tray. This allows the operator to insert product
between the layers of film on the product tray and to prepare to move product
and film into the sealing area. When threading film, make sure to pull more than
sufficient film through the rollers, across the product tray, and into the sealing
area to ensure sufficient film to begin operation.
Place product against rear of film separator tray. Then move product into
seal area. Be sure to leave the bag loose around the product when making the
seal. This helps eliminate the seals from blowing out in the shrink tunnel. This
completes threading and/or mounting film.
PIN PERFORATOR
Located between the lower idler rollers, the pin perforator is completely
15

synchronized with the seal arm and creates holes for air escape during shrinking
each time a new seal is made.
The pin perforator is adjustable and must be properly placed in
conjunction with the width of the desired package. The positioning should
always be re-evaluated when setting the machine for different size product or
different size film. Adjustments may be made with the adjustment knob
attached to the bottom of the film rack.
FILM BRAKE
The film brake is located on the operator side of the film cradle. It serves
to create tension on the dispensing film, in order to prevent over-run and/or
slack. From time to time, the operator shoulder-evaluate its setting to ensure
proper tension.
PRODUCT TRAY
The product tray is an adjustable metal platform used to separate film and
to insert product between top and bottom layers of film.
The tray is adjustable to achieve proper depth, equal to the depth of the
package; thereby, allowing product to be placed exactly in the center fold of the
film each time.
16
OPERATION OF AP-1622A SEALER
After completion of film threading as described on page 13, plug the

sealer’s cord into the power source.
Because of the importance of the adjustment of the element compensator
to the successful operation of the sealer, the following explanation of its
operation is given.
PRODUCTION OPERATION OF THE SEALER

After setting the element compensator for the film type in use, proceed as
follows:
A. With film threaded, (See instructions for mounting film) using right
hand, slide product into the upper left hand corner of the film ( i.e.
corner formed by folded rear edge of film and previously sealed left
edge of film).
B. Still using left hand, move package and film into lower right corner
of sealing area and then slightly back and away from the comer
formed by the sealing bars. This will allow some slack film between
the package and the sealing bars.
C. Press sealing handle down. IMMEDIATELY release pressure. The
sealing head will remain down for the duration of the time set on the
seal timer.
D. The operator may then load the next package onto the product tray,
thus speeding up the sealing operation.
17
TROUBLE SHOOTING CHART
The following trouble shooting chart is provided to aid in determining the

source of any operation difficulties which may develop. In performing the tests
and checks which follow, carefully inspect for any loose components, broken or
loose wires, poor electrical connections, etc. While testing the various switches,
controls, relays, transformers, etc. For checking electrical problems, use a
voltage meter.
Note: While trouble shooting use caution to avoid danger of electrical shock. When
power is not required for checking for the presence or value of voltages used.
Always have it disconnected.
Refer to components placement sheet and electrical schematic diagrams

to assist in all trouble shooting efforts.

SERVICE ADJUSTMENTS
ELEMENT COMPENSAOR ADJUSTMENT
Adjustment of the element compensator may be required under the

following conditions:
1. During continuous use. After about 15 minutes of sealer operation,
check seal quality and, if required, reset compensator. This may be
necessary as a result of heat buildup in the sealing head.
2. After installing new sealing elements.
3. If charring of film is noted (too much heat).
4. If sealing is incomplete (not enough heat).
To adjust the element compensator, refer to the adjustment instructions

given below:
ALL FILMS EXCEPT POLYETHYLENE
Adjust the element compensator (located at the end of the front seal bar)
by loosening the wing nut and turning the knurled-head screw until a 1/4”air
gap exists. With folded film (i.e. two layers of film) in the sealing position,
bring down the sealing head. Set the seal timer from 1 to 3 setting then examine
the seal. Experimentally, in small increments, increase the element compensator
air gap setting until a setting is obtained which yields a satisfactory seal and
film cut off. It is important to remember that the smallest air gap at which a
satisfactory seal and film nut off is obtained is the correct setting. If using PVC
film we recommend to use a 2”x 3mill Teflon cloth or tape over the sealing
wires for a clean cut off and reduced smoking.
23
POLYETHYLENE FILMS
On the element compensator, loosen the wing nut and turn the
knurled-head screw until a 1/4” air gap exists. Tighten the wing nut. With
folded film (i.e.) two layers of film) in the sealing position, bring down the
sealing head. Set the seal timer to position 1 or 2 on the timer dial setting.
Ordinarily, it will not be possible to obtain a satisfactory seal with the
1/4”gap setting. Experimentally, in small increments, increase the element
compensator air gap setting until a setting is obtained which yields a
satisfactory seal and film cut off.
*Please note: Any time you are using polyethylene films we recommend
a 2” x 3mill Teflon cloth or tape to be placed over the seal wire for a better seal
and performance.
SEALING ELEMENT REPLACEMENT
The sealing elements are subject to constant wear and will eventually
require replacement. To replace sealing elements proceed as described below.
REPLACING FRONT ELEMENT
1. Remove heat sink by removing the two screws on front and
backside of compensator. Note: Always check for excessive wear
and replace heat sink if necessary. (Heat sink part # 1521-08)
2. Loosen the two set screws on the side and front bars. (This holds
the opposite end of the front seal wire in place.) Loosen the two set
screws on the compensator. Remove old wire. When the wire was
24

originally installed it extended out of the top of the bar 2” and had
a loop or book on it to prevent injury to hands. It may be necessary
to cut the loop off to remove seal wire.
3. Cut off a piece of new seal wire 5” or 6” longer than necessary.
Using long-nosed pliers, measure 3” from one end and form a 90
degree bend. Push the wire through the corner bead and tighten set
screws. Note: For safety, lease take your pliers and bend a loop in
the wire that is extending out of the top of the bar.
4. Insert wire through compensator hole. With long-nosed pliers, grab
wire on back-side of compensator, turn long-nosed pliers toward
seal bar until there is approximately 1/8” gap between compensator
and seal bar. Tighten down Allen-Head screw. Cut excess wire off.
5. Remount heat sink making sure it fits snug against the wire. If it is
not snug, the wire will become too hot in this area and break.
6. Make sure the wire lies properly in the bead groove the entire
length of the bar. If not, pulse the machine, With the head in the up
position. Do this several times to stretch the wire then reset wire
temperature for making bags.
IMPORTANT: After replacing sealing wire, be sure to adjust the setting of

the element compensator.
TAPE REPLACEMENT
The item most subject to wear on the sealer is the Teflon tape used to
cover the silicone sponge rubber on the sealing bar. This tape should never be
25

permitted to burn through. To replace tape, proceed as follows:
1. Strip off old tape.
2. Cut off proper length of new Teflon, peel off backing, and press
new tape into position.
SILICONE RUBBER SEALING PAD REPLACEMENT
Occasionally it will be necessary to replace the silicone rubber sealing

pads.
This should be done if the following effect are noted:
Gaps in the seal
Weak seals
Improper film cut-off
Excessive sealing pressure required
To replace rubber, proceed as follows:
1. Seal pads are designed with a channel for easy replacement. Pull
silicone rubber out of the channel.
2. Replace with new silicone rubber. Press rubber back into channel.
3. Put 3/4” – 10 mil Teflon tape on top of rubber.
4. Put 1/2”- 10 mil teflon tape over the 3/4” tape.
SEALING PAD PRESSURE ADJUSTMENT FOR HEAD RETURN

CYLINDER
Uniform pressure between the sealing elements and the sealing pads
26

must always be maintained for proper sealing uniformity, and to prevent
element hot-spots and premature burnout. This adjustment should be checked
periodically, and should always be checked when sealing gaps occur. Proceed as
follows:
1. Disconnect the sealer’s power pug from the power source. Loosen
all five bolts on lower pads just enough to maintain a moderate
sliding pressure.
2. With sealing head resting on lower pads, make sure there are no air
gaps, then tighten the five bolts on the lower pad.
3. Adjust magnets (see below for adjustment of magnets )
4. At the rear of the machine (making sure head cylinder is straight
from front to back), firmly grasp air cylinder bracket and pull full
length of cylinder and tighten down set screws.
5. Cycling head up and down, adjust set screw for proper head speed
and cushion.
ELEMENT PULSE SWITCH ADJUSYMENT
The sealing cycle should not begin until the sealing head is within 1/4”or
less of the film to be sealed. If the magnets energize before the head is within
1/4” of the film, loosen the lock-nut and turn the screw (located at the rear end
of the side seal bar )up slightly (counterclockwise when viewed from above).
The correct adjustment has been obtained when the magnets energize just as the
seal bar comes into contact with lower pads.
27

ADJUSTMENT OF MAGNETS FOR CORRECT SEALING PRESSURE
All magnets have been factory adjusted for equal sealing pressure
throughout the length of both the front and side seal bars. However, if an
adjustment is required, proceed as follows:
1. Disconnect the sealer’s power source.
2. Loosen the lower magnet bolts on all lower magnets so that the
magnets settle to their lowest position in the mounting slots.
3. Lower the sealer’s operating handle fully and lift lower magnets to
within 1/16” from the holders. Tighten the mounting bolts securely to
retain the proper adjustment.
CONVEYOR
From time to time it will be necessary to disassemble the convey as it

will need adjustments or replacement of worn parts and general maintenance.
The following information is given to assist the operator in that general fashion.
If the problem does not recify itself with these general exlanation, discuss it
with an authorized distributor of Alpha-Pack or with Alpha-pack directly.
