Technical Specifications & Performance Data The Used Filter Enomet
Fitan 40 (2018) is a high-clarity, microfiltration solution designed
for final polishing and microbial retention ahead of filling
operations on a used bottling line. Engineered for beverage production
environments, it combines sanitary construction with automated
nitrogen backwash to maintain stable flow and consistent quality
across water, juice, beer, wine, and other low-viscosity beverages.

Advanced Automation & Control Systems The Fitan 40 leverages an
integrated PLC to manage filtration and nitrogen backwash routines,
stabilizing differential pressure and optimizing filter media life.
Automated sequences reduce operator intervention, supporting
consistent performance across shifts. System feedback enables
repeatable start/stop, hold, purge, and recovery cycles, promoting
uptime in industrial packaging operations. Electrical integration is
straightforward for beverage production facilities; typical industrial
configurations include three-phase power. Control interface layout is
engineered for quick access to key setpoints, alarms, and operating
parameters. Safety interlocks and an emergency stop enhance operator
protection while maintaining hygienic processing. Production Line
Integration Capabilities This Enomet unit integrates seamlessly into
new or existing used bottling line configurations, pairing effectively
with rinsing, filling, capping, and labeling equipment. Its role as a
final or polishing filter makes it suitable for PET, glass, and
aluminum packaging formats, feeding gravity or counter-pressure
fillers and supporting carbonated or still beverages when configured
appropriately. The filter’s controlled backwash with nitrogen helps
preserve product quality by limiting oxygen ingress, a particular
advantage for beer, wine, and sensitive juices. Standard sanitary
connections facilitate quick tie-ins to CIP loops, bright tanks, and
buffer manifolds, enabling flexible re-routing across SKUs and format
changes. Machine Condition & Maintenance History Year 2018, second
hand, and currently in storage, this unit presents as a well-kept,
modern filtration asset suitable for rapid redeployment. Manuals are
available to support installation, operation, and maintenance. Safety
features are included, and revision documentation may be provided
where applicable to outline prior service interventions and settings
verification. Operational Performance & Versatility With a throughput
of roughly 2.5–3.0 m³/h, the Fitan 40 provides robust clarity and
microbial control at 0.2 µm, making it a strong fit for final
filtration of water, juice, beer, wine, cider, and similar beverages.
The nitrogen backwash extends media life and helps sustain flow rate,
improving overall OEE by reducing manual filter changes and unplanned
interruptions. Whether paired with PET bottling lines, glass bottling
lines, or aluminum canning, the unit supports upstream polish prior to
filling, capping, and labeling. It suits both craft and industrial
packaging scales, with consistent, repeatable results across batches
and formats. Installation Requirements & Site Preparation Plan a
sanitary, level area with sufficient clearance for service access,
filter element replacement, and safe egress. Provide suitable process
piping for product inlet/outlet, drain, and CIP integration. A
dedicated nitrogen supply is required for automated backwash; size the
line and regulator for stable pressure delivery. Electrical connection
should align with typical three-phase industrial power used in
beverage production environments. Ensure proximity to plant utilities
(CIP, water, and drains) to streamline commissioning and routine
sanitation. Safety Standards & Compliance Certification The Fitan 40
incorporates safety features such as interlocked protections and
emergency stop to support operator safety during operation and
maintenance. Its sanitary stainless-steel design, smooth surfaces, and
cleanable geometry align with hygienic processing practices for
beverage facilities. Manuals are available to assist with risk
assessment, lockout/tagout procedures, and integration with line-wide
safety systems around rinsing, filling, capping, and labeling modules,
