DA = Dry, Acid

Triple protection

The all-round treatment with gaseous H₂O₂ sterilises the entire preform surface at once, both the inside and the neck area on the outside. 

Gentle preform treatment

The sterilisation of the preforms hardly leaves any residues: This is because the surface enlarges by many times and the residues of the sterilisation medium is diluted accordingly. 

High availability

The entire block is in production for 120 hours non-stop and only two and a half hours later is ready to start again. 

Pinpoint production

Filling to the last drop: The system uses the remaining product quantity in order to calculate exactly how many more PET containers and caps are still to be sterilised. 

Fully-automatic change-over

Handling parts change-over at the filler and the capper can be performed up to a defined output without any manual interference.
