Krones Modulfill VFJ, 88 Valve Filler

SPEED 54000 BPH
was last running non-carbonated beverages filling 8.5oz PET bottles.
The unit is a Monoblock Filler accompanied
with an independent
Krones 33 head spindle capper.
Neck-handling grippers position the PET
container beneath the filling valve.
Once the container has been centered,
the filling process starts.
The PFR valve (Proportional Flow Regulator)
is opened and the product flows
into the bottle with infinitely variable speed.
Once the required fill volume has been reached,
the flow meter provides a signal
to the PFR valve. Valves are now closed
and the filling process completed.
Dripping of the filling valve is prevented
by a sieve in the product discharge.

Previously running at 54,000 bottles per hour.
Currently set for 8.5oz PET bottles with 28mm caps.
