Abstract
A method for filling containers with a fill of liquid material and solids using a container-filling machine having a tank, a filling element, a processing unit, a bypass pipe and pump, and an overflow pipe. The tank holds the fill. The filling element controls delivery of fill from the tank into the container. The processing unit provides the fill to the tank. The by-pass pipe connects to the filling element. The pump returns a residual quantity from the tank to the processing unit. The residual quantity is a quantity of one of the fill and a by-pass volume flow from the filling element. The overflow pipe returns an unneeded quantity of fill to the processing unit. The method includes, using a by-pass pump embodied as a displacement pump, actively drawing the residual quantity from the filling element or tank.
