Description
The Direct Flow Control principle controls filling directly in place of the
conventional indirect filling method of controlling the return gas. The kegs are
pressurized at the lower saturation pressure and no longer at product pressure.
Benefit
Compared to conventional filling, about 1 bar less of CO
₂
pressure is
required for
pressurizing, which results in approx. 100 g less CO
₂
needed per
50-liter keg
Up to 15% faster filling
Less O
₂
pickup for particularly gentle filling
Scope of supply
DFC valve including suitable
connections

Sample pay-off method:
The potential CO
₂
cost savings are
approx. 7,000 € per year for a
Transomat 3/1 with a filling capacity of
70 kegs/hour and an operating period
of 4,000 hours per year.
