The sealed, waterproof A-B PV-300 touch keypad has a backlit 128x64 pixel LCD display. An HMI retrofit upgrade kit for previously installed FEMC piston block fillers is also available.

FEMC fillers have an accuracy to 1/10 of 1% for products with viscosities ranging from aqueous to particulate-containing slurries. The fillers are designed with up to 8 dispensing nozzles, each nozzle capable of filling a maximum of 60 containers/min.
