VFS-C = Volumetric filling, Flow meter, Short tube, Can
* Depending on the current can format
** Other can heights are possible on request

The can is fed into the filler and positioned underneath the filling valve. The valve is pneumatically lowered onto the can for pressing-on. Thanks to a differential pressure chamber, the cans are also centred and pressed onto the valve with extreme care. The filling process begins immediately after rinsing. An inductive flow meter monitors the fed filling quantity. The valve closes once the specified filling volume has been reached.
