FT102TT Table Top Carbonation & Filling
The Armfield FT52 has been designed to provide additional cleaning performance for Armfield FT units and other equipment.
It consists of a high flow rate stainless steel centrifugal pump mounted on a mobile frame.
Capacities up to 2.0 m³/h are achievable with low backpressure systems.

Uncompromising consistency: PLC control guarantees that every R&D batch is highly repeatable and reliable.
-
Cost-effective flexibility: Adapts to various packaging sizes and beverage types (water, syrup, premix) without requiring extensive line changeovers.
The FT102TT streamlines beverage development by offering rapid, highly accurate carbonation and filling capabilities directly on your laboratory bench.
The process begins with either a pre-mixed product or a post-mix water and syrup configuration. Utilising an external 9.5-litre product keg and an external chiller, the system precision-injects carbon dioxide to achieve precise carbonation levels up to and exceeding 10 g/l.
Thanks to its advanced Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and intuitive full-colour touchscreen HMI, users can easily input and execute basic recipe functions. The system maintains strict control over the carbonation parameters, ensuring exceptional accuracy to within ±0.1 g/l for consistent, repeatable test results.
Once carbonated, the liquid is rapidly dispensed into either PET or glass bottles. The versatile dispensing architecture accommodates a wide range of bottle sizes, from 150ml up to 2000ml samples.
Throughout the run, integrated diagrammatic display screens provide real-time process visibility, while the control system enables seamless data capture for analysis. By prioritising the core functions of its larger predecessor, the FT102TT delivers meaningful, production-ready R&D data without demanding extensive floor space.
