Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for filling a liquid under pressure into packaging containers, as has become known for example from EP 0 430 897 B1.
- This device has a storage container for a liquid under gas pressure, which is connected via a supply line to a distributor, to which, in turn, filling valves assigned to the packaging containers are connected.
- the sterile filter Pass liquid through a sterile filter before filling. So that no further germs can get into the liquid after passing through the sterile filter, the sterile filter is as close as possible to the filling elements or the Filling valves arranged. For reasons of space and handling, however, in most cases it is not possible to arrange the sterile filter in the flow path between the distributor and the filling valves, rather it is located directly in front of the distributor.
- the commonly used sterile filters containing ceramics have the disadvantage that as soon as they are only subjected to a gas pressure in the direction of flow, i.e. that there is no longer any liquid in the sterile filter, they have a blocking effect. Only when the gas pressure is much higher, for which the operation of the device is not otherwise designed, is the shut-off effect released again.
- the storage container can be completely emptied, but due to the above-mentioned blocking effect of the sterile filter, liquid remains in the distributor, which due to the there only low liquid pressure can no longer be filled. In the case of expensive pharmaceutical products in particular, this liquid remaining in the distributor represents a considerable cost factor which burdens the operation of the device and thus the price of the end product.
- claim 1 has the advantage that the amount of liquid remaining in the distributor when emptying the storage container can also be used for filling the packaging container. This makes the operation of the device less expensive.
- the distributor has a separate pressure connection, so that the liquid in the distributor is acted upon by a second gas pressure which is independent of the pressure of the storage container.
- FIG. 1 shows a first device for filling a pressurized liquid in a schematic representation
- Figure 2 shows a distributor of a second embodiment, also in a schematic representation.
- the device 10 shown in FIG. 1 for filling a liquid 1 has a product container 11 for the liquid 1.
- a first is on the product container 11
- Pressure line 12 connected, which is connected to a pressure source, not shown, and which acts on the liquid 1 in the product container 11 with a first gas pressure Pl.
- a supply line 14 extends from the bottom 13 of the product container 11 and opens into a distributor 15. When viewed in the direction of flow of the liquid 1, a shut-off valve 17 and a sterile filter 18 are interposed in the supply line 14, the sterile filter 18 being arranged in the immediate area in front of the distributor 15.
- a second pressure line 19 opens, via which the liquid 1 in the distributor 15 is acted upon by a second gas pressure P2.
- a first fill level sensor 22 for detecting an upper liquid level and a second fill level sensor 23 for detecting a lower liquid level are arranged in a side or jacket wall 21 of the distributor 15. The two level sensors 22, 23 are with the
- a pressure sensor 24 is also connected to the distributor 15 and detects the total pressure p in the liquid 1 prevailing in the distributor 15, consisting of the hydrostatic pressure component of the liquid 1 and the gas pressure component P2.
- Filling hoses 25 are connected to the distributor 15, each of which is connected to a filling valve 26 that can be moved up and down.
- Each filling valve 26 is assigned to a packaging container (not shown), for example a vial, an ampoule or the like.
- the packaging containers are cyclically fed to the filling valves 26 for filling with a certain amount of liquid in a manner known per se, and further conveyed after the filling.
- the metering of the amount of liquid is regulated by means of the control device of the device 10, taking into account the total pressure P of the liquid 1 detected by the pressure sensor 24.
- the control device of the device 10 opens the shut-off valve 17 so that liquid 1 can flow from the product container 11 into the distributor 15.
- the gas pressure P 1 together with the hydrostatic liquid pressure present up to the mouth at the distributor 15 is greater than the gas pressure P2 prevailing in the distributor 15. This condition must also be met to completely empty the product container 11. Despite the pressure loss through the sterile filter 18, these conditions can generally be achieved when the gas pressure Pl is greater than the gas pressure P2.
- the distributor 15a of a second embodiment of the invention shown in FIG. 2 differs from
- Distributor 15 of Figure 1 in that the distributor 15a is now tubular, the main direction of extension of the distributor 15a is horizontal. Furthermore, the distributor 15a has a vertically upwardly projecting one that starts from one end face
- the second pressure line 19a opens in the top of the pipe section 27, whereas the supply line 14a opens at the distributor 15a on the same side as the pipe section 27 in the distributor 15a.
- the filling hoses 25a can be made shorter than in the distributor 15, since the filling hoses 25a can be arranged directly above the packaging containers. It follows that the length of the distributor 15a is based on the space required for the packaging containers which are fed in at intervals. In contrast, in the case of the distributor 15 in the first exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 1, longer or curved filling hoses 25 are required as a result of the cylindrical (with a vertical main direction of extension) distributor 15.
- the distributor 15a enables advantages with regard to cleaning with CIP (Clean in place) or SIP (Sterile in place).
- CIP Cylean in place
- SIP Sterile in place
- Forming the distributor 15a is particularly useful in the case of small filling quantities in the packaging containers, in which only a small total volume of the distributor 15 is required.
