GEA Fillstar FX Volumetric electronic aseptic filler for still products Fillstar FX series is the GEA range of aseptic volumetric electronic fillers with magnetic flow meters for any still product, including high acid, low acid, clear, with pulps, fibres, pieces and viscous drinks. The product is pushed by an overpressure of sterile air or sterile nitrogen gas, through a linear product path. The filling process is made without contact between the filling nozzle and the bottle to avoid cross contamination. The flow meter determines the quantity of liquid according to the container and closes a membrane valve when the preset quantity is reached. There is no other moving component in contact with the product. Furthermore, a dual speed design (slow speed mode is used at beginning and end of filling cycle) allows to avoid foaming even with critical products. Key feature of FX fillers is the internal ste- rilization by means of steam. Changeover is performed without breaking of sterility for any container with the same neck finish, due to complete bottle “neck handling” system. CIP cups insertion and extraction for closed-loop CIP and SIP are completely automatic. Product change is totally automatic and ensures the complete change from different products in less than 30 min with minimal product scraps. Subject to modification

GEA Fillstar FXVolumetric electronic aseptic filler for still products

Fillstar FX series is the GEA range of

aseptic volumetric electronic fi llers with

magnetic fl ow meters for any still product,

including high acid, low acid, clear, with

pulps, fi bres, pieces and viscous drinks.

The product is pushed by an overpressure

of sterile air or sterile nitrogen gas,

through a linear product path.

The fi lling process is made without contact

between the fi lling nozzle and the bottle

to avoid cross contamination. The fl ow

meter determines the quantity of liquid

according to the container and closes a

membrane valve when the preset quantity

is reached. There is no other moving

component in contact with the product.

Furthermore, a dual speed design (slow

speed mode is used at beginning and end

of fi lling cycle) allows to avoid foaming

even with critical products.

Key feature of FX fi llers is the internal ste-

rilization by means of steam. Changeover

is performed without breaking of sterility

for any container with the same neck

fi nish, due to complete bottle “neck

handling” system. CIP cups insertion and

extraction for closed-loop CIP and SIP are

completely automatic.

Product change is totally automatic

and ensures the complete change from

diff erent products in less than 30 min with

minimal product scraps.
