* Permex have the first (and currently the only) mass flow liquid filling system with Weights and Measures approval in the UK and this machine's minimum design fill is 18 litres. Other fill sizes are possible with approved variations to this design.
In the 1980's Permex introduced their concept of 'flexible filling' by the litre using volumetric flow meters allowing easy change over of container size and efficient on-the-pallet container filling.
Permex have scored yet another ground-breaking first by designing and building the first mass flow liquid filling machine to be approved by the National Weights and Measures Laboratory.
By using a mass-flow meter instead of a volumetric flow meter, a direct measurement is obtained of the mass of the liquid instead of just the volume. By interfacing the high-discrimination pulsed output from the mass-flow meter to the sophisticated batch controller of the new Permex filling system, the batches will fall within a narrow band - equivalent to an accuracy within ±0.5% on containers of 18 litres or above.
Stringent interlocks are incorporated within the control procedure to safeguard the accuracy of amount dispensed.
The following graph is an extract from the tests carried out by the NWML on the specially designed Permex on-pallet MassFill machine, filling drums with liquid to a target weight of 18 Kg.
