Valves

Fogg Filler offers a comprehensive line of valves, each designed to provide accurate, fast filling in specific applications. For extended shelf life applications, Fogg offers the highly efficient CIP solutions, including the new Triline® valve.

  • Triline®
  • VentraFlow®
  • All Metal
  • Double Diaphragm
  • External Removable
  • Tri-Line Extended CIP

Enclosures

Designed for use with new or retrofit filling systems, Fogg Clean Guard™ provides up to a Class 100 environment for superior sanitation and safety in extended shelf life applications. Through a state-of-the-art HEPA air handling system, ultraviolet lamps and optional clean-in-place (CIP) plumbing, Fogg Clean Guard provides a controlled, sanitary environment while allowing optimum performance for maximum efficiency in extended shelf life and related liquid filling requirements.

Fogg Clean Guard is engineered from high-quality stainless steel and polycarbonate to effectively isolate the rinsing, filling and sealing/capping process from the surrounding environment. Specially engineered HEPA laminar airflow systems provide positive pressure of filtered air down through the enclosure before being exhausted out. The positive pressure and infeed air curtain prevents outside air from entering the enclosure, yet the design allows operators to access areas of the filling system.

Custom designed to meet specific requirements; Fogg Clean Guard provides application specific particulate filtration and HEPA air change cycles. Clean Guard is integrated with filling system sterilization, CIP and computer control, and can be free-standing or mounted to the base.

Fogg F4.1 Filler
 
Fogg’s F4.1 Series of rotary filling systems are the newest evolution of the F4 Series. These fillers are gear driven with an inline conveyor design like our larger models, but still maintain a very small footprint; taking 40% less floor space than a F6.2. The F4.1 makes a great filler for your pilot plant or smaller production needs.
