Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2361696A2] The method involves temporarily supplying gas to containers (10) during a filling operation via connection lines, where the lines differ in sections. The gas is exhausted from the containers using a gas exchange device. A rinsing mode is provided such that a filling device (4) and the connection lines are partly purged with rinsing medium e.g. hot water. A characteristic value is determined for the connection lines, where the value is provided for an amount of rinsing medium reaching the connection lines. The supply and removal of gas are controlled by the valve device. An independent claim is also included for a device for filling up liquids in containers, comprising a set of filling devices.
