Overview


The 5 Gallon Barrel Water Bottling Plant is a comprehensive solution designed for high-volume production of large-format drinking water containers, ideal for commercial and residential water delivery services. This fully automated plant handles the entire workflow—from barrel cleaning and sterilization to filling, capping, and labeling—with a focus on hygiene and operational efficiency. Capable of processing 5-gallon (18.9L) polyethylene (PE) or polycarbonate (PC) barrels, it ensures consistent quality and safety for bulk water distribution. The modular design allows easy integration with upstream water treatment systems (RO, UV sterilization) and downstream palletizing equipment, making it a scalable solution for water bottlers of all sizes.


Features


1. Three-Stage Barrel Cleaning: Combines mechanical brushing, high-pressure rinsing (80°C hot water), and UV sterilization to remove contaminants, including biofilm and residual chemicals. The cleaning tunnel accommodates up to 100 barrels per hour.

2. Dust-Free Filling System: A gravity-fed filling nozzle with a telescopic design minimizes splashing and air intake, while a positive-pressure air curtain prevents external particulates from entering the barrel during filling. Accuracy is within ±20ml for consistent volume.

3. Automatic Capping & Induction Sealing: Equipped with a servo-driven capping head that applies tamper-evident caps with precise torque (8-12N·m), followed by induction sealing to create an airtight barrier, extending shelf life and preventing leakage.

4. Hygienic Construction: All contact surfaces use food-grade materials (FDA-compliant seals, 316L stainless steel nozzles), while the frame is coated with anti-corrosive epoxy for wet-environment durability. The plant includes a dedicated drainage system to remove cleaning wastewater.

5. Intuitive Control Interface: A 15-inch HMI displays real-time production metrics (barrels per hour, water pressure, cleaning cycle status) and allows operators to switch between "new barrel" and "returned barrel" cleaning programs with one touch.

6. Low Labor Requirement: Requires only 2-3 operators for full-line operation, with automatic barrel alignment, gap detection, and reject mechanisms reducing manual intervention.


Applications


Commercial Water Delivery: Fills barrels for office water coolers, hospitality services, and industrial workshops, supporting daily delivery fleets.

Residential Use: Produces 5-gallon containers for home water dispensers, ensuring convenient access to purified or mineral water.

Emergency Water Supply: Suitable for disaster relief operations, providing large-volume clean water storage in durable, reusable barrels.


FAQ


Q: Can the plant handle other barrel sizes, such as 3-gallon?

A:Yes, with quick-change parts (star wheels, conveyor guides), it adapts to 3-gallon (11.3L) and 5-gallon barrels. Custom configurations for non-standard sizes are available upon request.

Q: How effective is the barrel cleaning for reused containers?

A:The three-stage process (alkaline wash, acid rinse, sterile water flush) achieves a log reduction of 6+ for microbial contaminants, meeting NSF/ANSI 372 lead-free and FDA hygiene standards.

Q: What is the minimum water pressure required for filling?

A:The system operates optimally at 2-4 bar (29-58 psi). A booster pump is included for low-pressure water sources to ensure consistent flow rates.

Q: How long does the entire production cycle take per barrel?

A:From cleaning to sealed capping, each barrel takes approximately 45-60 seconds, resulting in a throughput of 60-80 barrels per hour (depending on barrel condition and cleaning intensity).

Q: Is the plant compliant with international safety standards?

A:It meets CE, OSHA, and ASME BPE standards. Electrical components are rated for IP54 protection, suitable for wet processing environments.
