For filling insulating glass with a special gas, a probe (17) that can be introduced through an opening (25) in the spacer (26) for filling with the special gas, and a device (19) for sealing the opening(s) (25, 27) in the spacer (26) after completion of the filling process are arranged on a joint component (16) on the outlet side of a platen press (1, 2) for applying pressure to the glass plates of the insulating glass. The component (16) can be displaced from a readiness position wherein it is arranged below the conveying route (3, 13) for the insulating glass into a first operative position wherein the probe (17) is associated with the filling openings (25) in the spacer (26) and into a second operative position wherein the device for sealing the openings, which device preferably comprises filling nozzles (19) for feeding sealing compound (28) into the openings to be sealed, is associated with the openings (25, 27) in the spacer (26).
