Abstract

See full text

A filling machine includes a filling element that has a liquid channel, a liquid valve, controlled gas paths, and a probe having a channel and an opening. The channel connects to a tank of filling material. A filter in a gas path traps contaminants. During filling, the liquid valve introduces filling material into a container, the first gas path connects to an interior space of the container, and the probe's position determines a fill level in the container.
