Orved Vacuum Sealer Idea 31 VMO0031

The Orved Idea 31 (VMO0031) is a chamber vacuum sealer with a 434 x 343 x 195 mm chamber, a 310 mm sealing bar and a 12 m3/h pump, with inert gas injection for products that would crush under full vacuum.

Why operators choose the Idea 31

• Gas flush built in: two injection nozzles, up to 90% inert gas — for delicate product such as fresh pasta, salad leaves, baked goods and soft fish that full vacuum would crush. It needs a gas cylinder connected to use it
• 12 m3/h oil-lubricated rotary vane pump, down to 2 mbar (99.8% vacuum) — a 10 m3/h Busch pump is available on request
• Vacuum measured by an absolute sensor that needs no calibration — the machine stops at the vacuum level you set, so the result is the same every cycle
• 10 editable programs, a cycle for vacuum containers, a degas cycle for marinating, and an oil-dehumidifying cycle that protects the pump
• Resettable oil-change alarm — the pump is the expensive part, and the alarm tells you when to service it
• Stainless steel chamber with no edges or recesses, a removable sealing bar, and a thick acrylic lid that opens itself at the end of the cycle
• External vacuuming of embossed bags with the standard Easy accessory, and two filler plates to reduce the chamber volume for small packs and faster cycles
• 12-month warranty — the parts/labour split is not recorded; ask us before you buy

Specifications

Venue suitability

Chamber sealers suit restaurants doing sous vide and cook-chill, butchers and delis portioning for display or wholesale, caterers prepping ahead, and any kitchen sealing liquids, sauces and marinades — which a chamber machine handles and an external sealer does not. The gas flush makes this model the one for delicate product.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Can it gas flush?

Yes. Inert gas injection with two nozzles is standard, reaching up to 90% gas in the pack - useful for delicate food that full vacuum would crush. You need an inert gas cylinder connected to use it.

Q: Can it seal liquids?

Yes - a chamber sealer can pack soups, sauces and marinades, because the whole chamber is evacuated rather than just the bag. The supplier lists an inclined plate for liquid packing as an accessory.

Q: How big a bag can it take?

The chamber is 434 x 343 x 195 mm and the sealing bar is 310 mm long, so bags up to about 310 mm wide.

Q: Does the pump need maintenance?

Yes. It is an oil-lubricated pump with a resettable oil-change alarm, and an oil-dehumidifying cycle that removes moisture drawn in from wet product. Changing the oil on time is what keeps the pump reaching full vacuum.

Q: What warranty does it carry?

12 months. Our record gives the duration but not the parts and labour split - ask us and we will confirm it before you buy. See our warranty information page for the general terms.
