Abstract
A filling machine for filling containers with a pourable product, comprising: a product tank containing the pourable product and a first gas maintained at a first pressure value; at least one dosing tank containing a second gas; a first pressurizing device configured to selectively pressurize the second gas in the at least one dosing tank to a second pressure value, that is lower than the first pressure value; a controller configured to: set the second valve in an open configuration after the at least one dosing tank has been pressurized to the second pressure value; and set the second valve in the closed configuration as the pressure detected by the sensor in the at least one dosing tank reaches a third pressure value corresponding to a predetermined volume of the pourable product in the dosing tank.
