High-end variant for filling clear spirits and liqueurs in glass bottles
- Determination of the fill level via vacuum correction
- No direct contact of the vacuum with the product: it is guided via a separate vacuum channel
- The product is not returned to the ring bowl during the correction phase
- Operates according to the “no bottle, no filling” principle
- Changing the fill level via an adjustable filler top part
- Electropneumatic filling valve
- One filling speed
- Filling valve integrated in the CIP circuit
Fields of application
- Suitable for clear spirits and liqueurs
Output
- Up to 60,000 containers per hour
HVT = Height filling system, Vacuum, Tube-in-tube
Functional principle of the valve
The Modulfill HVT is a mechanical filling system which operates with a correction tube. The bottle is pressed onto the filling valve. Then the valve opens and filling begins. As soon as the bottle is full to the brim, the valve closes and the electropneumatically controlled vacuum correction begins. The correction quantity is drained into a separate channel. Since the valve function is controlled by the bottle, the following principle is valid: "no bottle, no filling".
