Abstract

The filling element (1) has at least four gas ducts (27, 28, 29, 34). The first gas duct has a first control valve (24) to produce a controlled connection between the return gas opening (18''') and the tension gas duct (3), the second gas duct has a second control valve (25) for connecting the return gas opening and the vacuum duct (4) whilst the third gas duct has a third control valve (26) for controlled connection between the return gas duct and a flushing pipe (19) provided on the filler element and which can lead into the relevant can or container (10). The fourth gas duct contains a first throttle (35) for regulating or reducing the gas flow and provides a constant connection between the return gas opening and the return gas duct (5).The second and third gas ducts also contain throttles (30, 32).
