5 Gallon Filling Machine FAT and Supplier Evidence

Compare 5 gallon machine proposals on the same bottle, capacity and scope basis, then turn the selected requirements into an agreed FAT. Evidence should show how the proposed equipment handles the approved bottle and cap under recorded test conditions.

Decision summary

Use this page when the decision matches your project

Compare 5 gallon machine proposals on the same bottle, capacity and scope basis, then turn the selected requirements into an agreed FAT. Evidence should show how the proposed equipment handles the approved bottle and cap under recorded test conditions.

Suitable for
  • Buyers normalizing technical proposals
  • Projects with approved bottles and caps
  • Teams defining pre-shipment evidence and acceptance
Not suitable for
  • Treating a generic factory video as full acceptance
  • Adding new criteria after manufacture without agreement
  • Using unapproved samples
Required inputs
  • One normalized request and signed specification
  • Approved bottle and cap samples
  • Agreed test method and duration
  • Documentation and spare-parts list

Acceptance evidence matrix

Define what will be observed, recorded and closed at FAT

Every acceptance point needs a test condition and a record. Generic videos cannot replace the agreed machine-specific evidence.

Acceptance pointAgreed conditionRecord during testClose-out output
Bottle transferApproved sample range and selected operating rateMisfeeds, stops, damage and recovery actionsResult plus any guide or change-part action
Washing sequenceSelected cycle, utilities and representative bottlesStage operation, coverage observations and drainageSigned observations and open validation boundary
Filling and cappingApproved water supply, bottles, caps and count windowFill result, cap result, rejects and interruptionsAccepted result or dated corrective action
Alarms and safetyPre-agreed challenge listStop, alarm, interlock and restart responsePass/fail record with responsible owner
Documents and sparesContract document list and packing listRevision, quantity and missing itemsSigned handover list and punch-list due dates

Use boundary: FAT confirms the agreed factory test; final site performance also depends on installed utilities, connected equipment, materials and operators.

01

Normalize the proposal before selection

Issue the same bottle, cap, output, process boundary, utilities, destination and service requirement to every candidate. Compare inclusions and exclusions beside price, and request drawings or sample-testing evidence that relates to the proposed machine rather than generic promotion.

  • One bottle and cap basis
  • One output and operating basis
  • Visible inclusions and exclusions
  • Relevant drawing or sample evidence
  • Open-point register
02

Check the specification and components

Confirm the ordered configuration, component list, machine appearance, specified welding and surfaces, guards, labels and drawing revisions before running tests.

  • Configuration against order
  • Component and material evidence
  • Appearance and accessible surfaces
  • Guards and labels
  • Open deviations
03

Dry run and water test

Observe dry cycling, water operation, bottle transfer, washing sequence, filling, cap feeding and capping. Record utility conditions and identify differences from the final site.

  • Dry cycle
  • Water test
  • Bottle transfer
  • Filling result
  • Cap feed and capping
04

Alarms, safety and capacity

Test selected alarms, no-bottle logic, blocked discharge, emergency stops and guard response. Capacity confirmation must use the agreed bottle, test window and acceptance rule.

  • Alarm test
  • Safety test
  • Starved and blocked conditions
  • Gross and saleable output
  • Reject record
05

Close documents, spares and responsibility

Close the FAT with manuals, drawings, software or parameter backups where included, spare parts, punch-list ownership and packing inspection. Record installation, warranty and support boundaries in the agreement rather than relying on sales-language assumptions.

  • Signed FAT report
  • Manuals and drawings
  • Spare-parts check
  • Punch-list closeout
  • Packing and support boundary
Q / INPUT

Information needed for a quote

FAQ

Short answers, visible boundaries

Project-specific output, hygiene, utilities and service terms belong in the confirmed technical proposal.

Does FAT guarantee final site output?

FAT confirms the agreed factory test. Site output also depends on installed utilities, bottle supply, operators and connected equipment.

Who supplies bottles and caps for FAT?

The order should assign responsibility and quantity early enough for production-representative testing.

How should two machine proposals be compared?

Normalize the bottle, cap, capacity basis, included modules, utilities, FAT, documents, spares, delivery and service scope before comparing price.

What controls the final FAT scope?

The contract and technical attachment confirmed by both parties.

GuidesFAT Checklist for a 5 Gallon Water Filling Machine

A FAT checklist converts the technical agreement into observable tests. It should name the approved bottle and cap, test conditions, measurement method, documents and responsibility for open items.

MachineQGF 5 Gallon Water Filling Machine Specifications

A 5 gallon water filling machine washes or rinses a qualified large-format bottle, fills it with treated drinking water and applies the approved cap. The correct machine depends on the actual bottle, return condition, capacity and automation boundary.

Maintenance5 Gallon Water Line Spare Parts and Maintenance Plan

A practical spare-parts and maintenance plan links each machine function to inspection frequency, normal wear items, critical failure risk, lead time, safe replacement instructions and a stock owner. The final list must follow the supplied machine bill of materials and manuals.

GuidesWhat Information Is Needed for a 5 Gallon Filling Line Quote?

A useful quote needs contact and destination, bottle and cap evidence, required output, process modules, factory utilities, project schedule and delivery responsibility. Unknown items can remain open.
