High Accuracy Fills

40mm E&H Mag meter provides +/ 0,25% fill accuracy Mechanically controlled fill valve provides consistently repeatable fills Stainless steel DN 40 elbows avoid water hammering in the line Filling valve in stand-by position is ready for C.I.P. without the need of an operator for the positioning of the movable pipe.

No splash, no drip and consistent air control

Filling valve ensures fast consistent clean fills Piston under the bag ensures minimum air in bag after fill Vacuum pulls drip from fill nozzle before capping Nitrogen replaces air in fill gland

Driven capper mechanism provides consistent re-capping

C.I.P.

   All functions and sequences are fully automatic and alarms and interlocks ensure the filler is cleaned and sterilized (by hot water or steam) before production Filler will not run production if C.I.P. is not completed.

C.I.P. adapter is fully automatic. No manual operations
