Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for tapping a carbonated beverage, a carbonated beverage dispenser and a cartridge unit for a carbonated beverage dispenser.
- filters or terminal filters which may also be designed as a membrane filter. These filters are used to prevent retrograde contamination of dispensers. Since the pressure loss increases with the duration of use of the filter and thus reduces the flow rate, such filters are now always oversized so that there is no significant reduction in the flow rate during the recommended service life. Compensators continue to be used for the actual flow control. The pressure loss of the filter and membrane filter used in the prior art goes to zero at the set flow rate and is significantly less than 1 bar.
- Object of the present invention is to provide an improved variant of a dispensing system, with both carbonated drinks can be tapped and a retrograde contamination of the system is prevented.
- This object is achieved with a method for tapping a carbonated beverage with the features of claim 1, a dispensing system for carbonated drinks with the features of claim 9 and a cartridge unit dissolved for a dispensing system for carbonated drinks with the features of claim 20.
- a method for tapping a carbonated beverage from a dispensing system wherein the carbonated beverage is passed via a line through a flow regulator and a flow regulator downstream of the flow regulator, the carbonated beverage undergoes a pressure drop over the equilibrium pressure at the flow of the filter carbonated beverage.
- Carbonated drinks are under pressure before they are served. They are, for example, pre-carbonated and stored in special containers under pressure so that the CO2 does not escape before the pin.
- carbonated drinks are mixed and carbonated just prior to tapping.
- a specific pressure is needed - depending on the conditions of temperature, C0 2 content and type of beverage.
- a carbonated beverage within a dispensing system is under a specific pressure that exceeds ambient pressure. At or just before the tap, the beverage must be relieved to ambient pressure.
- the relaxation of the carbonated beverage takes place essentially in the flow regulator and thus abruptly. This may result in the C0 2 content of the carbonated beverage dropping abruptly to ambient pressure as it passes through the flow regulator and thus out-of-release CO2 to a relevant extent, as the equilibrium pressure of CO2 in water is above ambient.
- the invention is now based on the recognition that due to the downstream of the flow regulator arranged filter downstream of the flow regulator results in a back pressure, which means that the carbonated beverage is relaxed when passing through the flow regulator not to ambient pressure, but to the sum of ambient pressure and back pressure ,
- the equilibrium pressure of dissolved CO2 in water at 8 ° C is about 1.6 bar.
- the filter may coincide directly with the tapping point or lie immediately upstream of the tapping point.
- a filter is advantageously provided, which is suitable for sterilization or for sterile filtration, so as to prevent the retrograde contamination of the dispensing system.
- it is particularly preferable to use so-called “dead-end” filters In the case of dead-end filtration, a feed is pumped against the filter, on the back of which the so-called permeate proceeds "Filtering is advantageous because these filters can be easily formed so that they are suitable for sterilizing the filtered liquid. The use of such filters makes it possible to prevent retrograde contamination of the dispensing system with high reliability.
- the dead-end filtration is to be distinguished from the so-called tangential flow filtration, which, however, can also be used in connection with the present invention.
- Especially suitable dead-end filters have been found to be fiber membrane based filters.
