Abstract: Filling a container with a filling material having a first and second liquid components in a predetermined ratio includes supplying the first component from a tank to the container through a filling material line that defines opposite first and second directions, the line being closable by a valve. A flow-rate measuring unit determines an amount of first liquid component fed through the line in the second direction. The method also includes feeding the second component into the line, the line having been at least partially filled by the first component, and detecting an amount of the second component fed therein. Detecting the amount of the second component includes using a flow-rate measuring unit to detect motion of the first component caused by feeding the second component. The method then includes displacing at least a portion of the first component from the line along the first direction.

Abstract: Filling system for filling bottles or similar containers with a liquid consisting of a main component and at least one additional component, said system comprising a plurality of filling elements in which the additional component(s) is/are supplied in controlled quantities via at least one mixing line per filling element in order to be mixed with the main component in the filling element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an associated device for filling containers (2) with a filling material composed of at least one first and one second liquid component (3, 4) at a predetermined ratio, wherein in order to fill the container (2), the first liquid component (3) is fed from a first tank (5) to the container (2) by means of at least one filling material line (7), which can be closed by means of at least one first filling valve unit (8), wherein in order to determine the amount (M1) of the first liquid component (3) conducted through the at least one filling material line (7), at least one flow rate measuring unit (9) is provided.
