Abstract

A refillable distributing container for liquid media, particularly an aerosol can, has two valves, whereof an upper valve is constructed as the distributing valve (5) for exclusively distributing the container content. The second valve is constructed for filling the container both with liquid medium and with pressurized gas. The invention also relates to a filling device for refilling the distributing container and a process for the same. The filling device has a filling connection (9), which is connectable with the distributing container filling valve (8). The liquid is preferably forced in to the distributing container with the aid of the pressurized gas.
