Description

The FT102XA is the latest in high accuracy carbonation and filling technology. You can carbonate a premixed product or water and syrup in a post mix configuration.
Filling soft and alcoholic beverages into PET, bioplastic, glass and cans with screw capping, crown capping and now an integral can seamer.

 

This FT102XA has many new updates including:

  • Reduced minimum batch volumes
  • Ability to carbonate highly foaming products
  • Internally mounted chiller to reduce space requirement in your laboratory

Other updates include the ability to measure the Dissolved Oxygen and CO2  directly

 

Features & Benefits

Features:

  • Accurate carbonation levels in excess of 12g/l (± 0.1g/l)
  • Cans, PET and glass bottle filling
  • Screw, crown, and Rip-cap capping
  • Can seaming
  • COrecycling for environmentally friendly processing
  • Deaeration
  • Vessel purging
  • New vacuum system compatible with high-foaming products
  • In-bottle pressure measurement
  • Pre-mixing and post-mixing capability
  • Syrup dosing into the bottle
