- the vacuum channel opens into the filling product throughflow below a sealing plane defined by a valve seat and a valve cone of the filling valve. Accordingly, the vacuum channel, regardless of the switching position of the filling valve with the container
- the vacuum channel may be particularly preferably introduced into a sleeve of the filling valve in order to provide a structurally advantageous
- the filling valve particularly preferably has a valve seat and a sealing therein
- the carbonator device has a valve for accurately controlling the flow of C0 2 into the product flow rate, such that exact metering of C0 2 into the product
- a carbonator device carbonates the fill product flowing through the fill product flow.
- FIG. 1 shows a schematic representation of a device for filling a container with a filling product with a carbonating device.
- FIG. 1 shows a device 1 for filling a container with a filling product is shown schematically.
- the filling product is present in a Dratreservoir 10, which in the embodiment shown in the form of a ring boiler in a filler carousel a
- Beverage bottling plant is formed.
- the filling product flows from the filling product reservoir 10 via a filling product opening 12 into a filling valve 2, which comprises a filling valve sleeve 20, which provides a filling product throughflow 22.
- a filling valve 2 which comprises a filling valve sleeve 20, which provides a filling product throughflow 22.
- a plurality of filling valves 2 are arranged uniformly on the circumference of the filler carousel at the said filler carousel, in order to provide a plurality of filling points in this manner, in order to provide the required filling capacity and output accordingly.
- the filling valve sleeve 20 of the filling valve 2 further has a filling valve seat 24, which is formed in the filling product through the flow rate of 22 limiting inner wall of the Besttechnische 20.
- the filling product flows out of the filling product reservoir 10 through the filling product reservoir 10 when the filling valve cone 26 is open, that is to say when the filling valve cone 26 is lifted out of the filling valve seat 24
- the Mountain maybeauslauf 29 ends in the illustrated embodiment of a receiving bell 30, to which the container to be filled 100 with its mouth portion 1 10 can be sealingly received. Accordingly, the filling product flows through the filling product outlet 29 directly through the mouth 1 10 in the container to be filled 100th
- a Karbonleitersvornchtung 4 is provided, which with a Karbonmaschineskanal, which simultaneously acts as C0 2 injector 40, opens into the Food
- a Karbonmaschineskanal which simultaneously acts as C0 2 injector 40, opens into the Food
- Karbonleitersvornchtung 4 is below the valve closure level 28, that is arranged below the valve seat 24.
- a vacuum valve 5 is provided below the valve sealing level 28, that is also below the valve seat 24, wherein the vacuum valve 5 is a vacuum channel 50 and a
- Vacuum connection 52 which, for example, can also be connected to a vacuum or vacuum device.
- Vacuum connection 52 which, for example, can also be connected to a vacuum or vacuum device.
- the container can be rinsed with a closed filling valve 2 with C0 2 100 in order to reduce the oxygen content within the container 100th
- the vacuum valve 5 is opened and at the same time the Karbonticiansventil 44 is opened, such that C0 2 can flow through the interior of the container to be filled 100 and then can be withdrawn via the vacuum valve 5.
