The Electronic Gravity (EL-G) Filler is similar to the Pressure Gravity model’s operation in that it provides accurate and consistent level fills at a high rate of speed. The liquid system is also allows return product to be recirculated or reprocessed. However, what differentiates the EL-G technology is the electronically controlled filling valve operation. This feature makes it possible to modulate the flow of product going into the container. The valve can open, throttle or close at specific points throughout the 360-degree filling carousel (referred to as “filling angles”). These filling angles are controlled through programming, and can establish the optimum filling profile for various product characteristics and containers. All of these controls can be accessed, edited and stored through the PLC logic and touch-screen HMI. This capability has made the EL-G a popular model among manufacturers of juice, liquor and other free-flowing liquids.
