Our latest bottom fill filling machine, ABA-M370, is a net weight filler designed to fill 1 and 5 gallon jugs with tight necks. Bottom fill filling machiines with diving lance style fill heads are best suited to this kind of application, especially if the product is static prone or liable to foam. In a C1D1 area, the diving lance style makes this type of filling safer by keeping the head of the lance submerged in product to prevent static transfer. As the product fills the container, the fill carriage slowly rises, pulling the head up whilst still keeping the lance submerged at the end for safety. When the fill has completed, the carriage raises completely up and the lance is removed from the container. 

This machine is for a C1D1 (Class 1 Division 1) explosion proof area and features an intrinsically safe mouse on the pendant arm for controlling the HMI. Additionally, the machine was constructed using a stainless steel frame and stainless steel pendant arm to make washdown easier.
