Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008101572A1] A method for filling bottles or similar containers (2) with a liquid product under counterpressure, with the use of a filling machine (1) which has a plurality of filling elements (5) on a rotor (3), a boiling vessel (15) which is common to the filling elements (5) and the interior space of which forms a liquid space (15.1) taken up by the liquid product and a gas space (15.2) above the product for an inert gas which is under pressure (filling pressure), and at least one return gas channel (29) common to all of the filling elements (5) or to a group of filling elements, wherein, before the filling operation, the interior space of the containers (2) is prestressed in each case via a controlled gas path (21, 24, 28) of each filling element with inert gas which comes from the gas space of the boiling vessel (15) and is at the filling pressure, and, during the filling operation, at least part of the inert gas is forced out of the containers into the at least one return gas channel (29) by the inflowing product.
