Filling Systems
![]()
Filling systems are used wherever fluids need to be filled or emptied from drums, IBCs, or canisters quickly, safely, and with precise dosing. A FLUX filling system consists of a combination of a pump, drive motor, and accessories tailored to the specific application.
The product range extends from manual pump sets to semi-automatic systems with FLUXTRONIC metering, all the way to the FLUX FILL GT filling system with weighing technology, which is certified for calibration.
Manual Filling Systems
Manually fill various media quickly and safely.
Semi-automatic systems
Use a flow meter to precisely measure out preset quantities and fill containers with consistent results.
SAFETEC Pump Set
Safely and carefully empty enclosed IBCs and drums.
FLUX-FILL GT
Semi-automatic filling system with weighing technology: accurate, efficient, and reliable filling.
Advantages
Applications
Typical applications and areas of use for FLUX filling systems.
Universal Filling
Acids, alkalis, fuels, oils, and water from drums and IBCs—using manual pump sets.
Media Requiring Dosage Control
Semi-automatic dispensing of preset quantities—controlled by FLUXTRONIC with automatic stop.
Food and Pharmaceuticals
Food- and pharmaceutical-grade sets – FDA, 3-A, media-compatible materials.
Ex-proof bottling
Flammable and highly flammable media – ATEX-compliant explosion-proof pump sets.
Bottling Subject to Calibration Requirements
FPackV-compliant weighing technology with FLUX FILL GT – for filling products for sale.
Sealed Containers of Hazardous Substances
Closed drainage via a suction lance with SAFETEC—drip-free, no contact with the fluid.
Safely Dosing Acids and Bases into Electroplating Baths with SAFETEC
How a manufacturer of construction chemicals saves time and materials through battery technology and quick-change motors.
Precise Pouring of Viscous Dispersion Plaster
A manufacturer uses a VISCOPOWER pump set to fill 10-liter buckets with high-viscosity dispersion plaster from a production tank.
Efficient Filling of High-Viscosity Glucose Syrup
High-viscosity glucose syrup is transferred from IBCs to mixing tanks using an F 580 S FOOD eccentric screw pump—filling time reduced from 120 to 45 minutes
