Gas flush and vacuum system designed and assembled in California.HIGH SPEED, HIGH QUALITY VACUUM/GAS FLUSH (OR BOTH) SEALING FOR FRESHNESS
IMPORTANT NOTE: This unit requires a regulated supply of inert gas at 20 PSI minimum AND a clean, dry compressed air source capable of providing 80 PSI minimum.
As a natural addition to our highly successful VakRapid® series of continuous band sealers, the IMPAK VakRapid®2.5 continuous band vacuum and gas flush sealers set the standard for high speed bagging of food, medical, pharmaceutical and electronics applications that require optimum freshness and shelf life. The VakRapid® Series provides high quality, hermetic seals on all moisture-barrier bag materials. The vacuum and nitrogen gas flush system removes up to 99% of oxygen, depending on the application, and creates a low moisture package. It is an ideal solution for food, medical, pharmaceutical, electronics and other products that need added protection against decomposition. The gas flush system also can be used to create a cushion like buffer to protect contents from damage. The VakRapid® is economical when compared to other sealers that offer nitrogen gas flushing for air removal. The VakRapid® model includes a vacuum cycle after gas flushing to allow virtually oxygen free vacuum-sealed product bags. Additional options include a stainless steel stand with casters for portability, embossing or dry print letter kit and a spare parts kit.
This conveyor style heat sealer is ideal for use with products which benefit from minimal oxygen levels but are delicate and might be damaged by a vacuum.
The nitrogen flush forces oxygen out of the bag for prolonged shelf-life and also creates a cushion for the product.
To operate, the nozzle is inserted into the bag and a bag sensor activates the gas flush. The bag fills as it is passed toward the heating elements. When the edge of the bag meets the nozzle the nozzle pivots out of the way and the bag continues through the heating and cooling blocks where it exits at the other side of the machine.
The machine may be used in conjunction with several gas types but most typically is used with nitrogen. Where space is a concern, IMPAK offers a Nitrogen Generator that converts oxygen to nitrogen and eliminates the need for a bulky tank.
The base unit for this machine is our tried and tested RHS1525 which has a reputation as a workhorse and is known for its easy operation. Consumable parts such as Teflon are readily available from IMPAK and easy to install. The RapidSealer line is an ideal solution for increased production speed with a reliable, simple machine. The addition of a gas flush expands its benefits and adds extra protection against the corrosive effects of oxygen.
Dear Customer: Due to the unique nature and layout of our gas flush and vacuum band sealers combined with the multitude of pouches available we kindly ask that you send in the pouch(es) and physical product(s) you intend to use in the unit prior to or upon purchase. Our skilled technicians will run the pouch through an identical unit and provide any feedback, suggestions or possible issues that may be encountered, such as zipper placement or fill volume. IMPAK is committed to helping our customers make sound purchasing choices, and in most cases we offer this testing free of charge. Please take advantage of the opportunity to gain valuable feedback about your packaging process.

PTFE Fluoropolymer, or Polytetrafluoroethylene, known for its strength and durability, was discovered in 1938 by Roy Plunkett, a chemist at Kinetic Chemicals. This substance has been widely used in the manufacture of bullet proof vests, munitions, wire and equipment coating at NASA, non-stick cookery, and many other applications.
