Keg system availability increased
With the patented Innokeg Till One4Two treatment head, the brewer Heineken uses a KHS development which, when properly integrated into the keg washing and racking heads, allows the processing of two different fitting types. This had not been possible in the past: A company with kegs with different fitting types in its range always had to replace the centering cone and fitting plunger in both the washing heads and the filling heads, when it changed from processing kegs with basket fittings to kegs with flat fittings or vice versa – a laborious activity which was very time-consuming and required subsequent CIP cleaning. Heineken has used the KHS Innokeg Till One4Two system at its Volga Brewery in the Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod for the first time.
