IDEAS ON POSSIBLE OPERATIONAL METHODS
The food should be previously prepared inside the special vacuum-pack bags (for cooking or
preserving), or inside rigid vacuum-pack containers ("vacuum-pack boxes").
The bag or container should be positioned inside the vacuum-chamber, where the evacuation of
the air takes place and, in the case of vacuum-pack bags, they are sealed.
The vacuum generated can be at different levels:
Preserving cycles for bags:
Preserving cycle. This is a forced vacuum level, the air inside the bag is removed
completely. The length of the cycle is around 3 minutes.
Cooking cycle. This is a forced vacuum level, the air is removed both from the food
and its internal parts, in such a way as to obtain the homogeneous transmission of heat from the
outside to the inside of the product in the next cooking phase in the steam oven, for the food which
has been packaged in the special cooking bag. The length of the cycle is around 4 minutes.
In the preserving cycle, PA/PE bags are used for preserving the food or OPA/PP for cooking; for
the cooking cycle, if successive cooking of the food is foreseen in the steam oven inside a pack,
