Van Meurs easy changeover

Switching from filling small bags to filling big bags is done easily by taking away the roller conveyor on which the smaller bags are filled. Thanks to the widened frame the big bags can be driven under neath the fill valve and be placed at the exact height by means of a manually operated pallet
truck.

Options van Meurs:

• Steam generator instead of steam accumulator
• Aseptic tanks with sterile pressure/level control
• Aseptic product pump installation with controls
• Filling valve for viscous products
• Mass metering tube.

Van Meurs systems are provided with:

• An inductive high speed metering tube
• Control by plc
• Couplings for the vacuum installation, the CIP systems and steam sterilization
• Each filling valve has an interchangeable grab for the bag closure
• Bag closures with or without pre-closing position
• Sterile air filter installation
• The fill valve is sterilized with steam and dried with sterile air after each bag.
• Steam accumulator with controls
• Widened frame
• Communication module with modem
• Injection of steam or inert gas
• Vacuum installation with pump, valves, piping and controls

Vacuum system:

As an alternative to the "dry vacuum pump", that, combined with a vacuum separator, takes care of vacumizing the bag prior to filling, now the option of a liquid ring vacuum pump is available.

The use of this new vacuum pump enables us to eliminate both vacuum separator and buffer reservoir. The whole vacuum system can be cleaned in place, steam flushed and sterilized.

Fully Automatic systems:

Certainly for larger capacities, the possibility of supplying the Van Meurs filler as a fully automatic system can be most interesting. Bag supply, discharge, positioning in the box, as well as the box handling takes place fully automatically.
