Process modes
The Hei-VAP Precision forms a unit with the control panel, the vacuum box and the
vacuum valve, in which the vacuum is controlled by opening and closing a valve.
The vacuum valve is not required when using a speed-controlled pump.
The ventilation valve in the vacuum box is always open when the
vacuum control is switched off.
