Zusammenfassung:A filler unit (10) comprising a container filling valve (50). The filling valve including a shuttle (200) movable between an open position corresponding to a first flow rate through the filling valve, a closed position corresponding to no flow through the filling valve, and a low flow setpoint position corresponding to a non-zero second flow rate through the filling valve. The second flow rate is less the first flow rate. An actuator (80) comprising a chamber and a barrier (551) coupled to the shuttle. The barrier (551) is movable to alternately increase a volume of chamber or to decrease the volume of the chamber; a flow path from the chamber; and a control valve positioned in the flow path and having a blocked position in which fluid flow is blocked and an unblocked position in which fluid flow is unblocked.
