A typical automated bottling line uses a dedicated fluid‑transfer module where the flow‑meter assembly is mounted directly on the drive pump’s inlet. The intake line, equipped with a fine strainer, draws liquid from the bulk tank while the overflow pipe routes any excess back to a holding vessel, preventing pressure spikes. The drive sheave synchronises the pump’s speed with the PLC‑controlled setpoint, and the discharge valve releases the measured volume into the filling nozzle at precisely the programmed rate. By feeding the flow sensor’s real‑time signal into the plant’s control system, engineers can close the loop on dosage accuracy, detect blockages instantly, and adjust pump speed without manual intervention. This configuration is also common in chemical dosing stations where a plant operator relies on the same arrangement to maintain strict concentration limits in a continuous reactor. The combination of intake line, strainer, overflow pipe, drive pump, drive sheave and discharge valve thus enables reliable, repeatable fluid handling within fully automated processes.
