Abstract

In this method, the return gas to be carried away from the container to be filled in each case is carried away by differential pressure via a connection provided with a throttle device to a return- gas chamber, in which a pressure is set which can be adjusted within a pressure range lying between the filling pressure and the critical pressure of the throttle device. As a result, the flow rate with which the liquid to be filled flows into the container to be filled can be continuously matched to the filling properties of the liquid to be filled in each case and/or to the particular output requirement set for the filling device.
