Multiple Stage Inline Dispersers
The DISPAX REACTOR is a high shear, three stage dispersing machine for the production of micro-emulsions and very fine suspensions. Three rotor-stator combinations (generators) in a series produce a small droplet or particle size, with a very narrow distribution. The generators can be easily interchanged, offering the ultimate in flexibility. The DR line offers the same advantages as the UTL for scalability and sanitary design, and is CIP and SIP capable.
Applications
Vaccines Decomposition of active substances Colloidal solutions Metal-oxide suspensions Inks Printing colors Incorporation of pigments Sub-micron emulsion Greases, Lubricants Graphites SlurriesGenerators available:
Coarse, Medium, Fine, SuperfineSUPER DISPAX-REACTOR InlineIt is well known that tip speed, and therefore shear rate, is one of the most important factors in achieving the finest micro-emulsions. The SUPER DISPAX REACTOR combines extremely high shear rates with a fine generator geometry to produce the ultimate in high energy dispersing. Due to the high tip speeds, two stages are often all that is needed to achieve the results that are desired. The DRS is designed with the same high quality features as the UTL and the DR, and is especially suited for even the toughest pharmaceutical applications. Tip speeds exceeding 10,000 fpm can be achieved. The DRS can be an alternative to costly high pressure homogenizers.
