Model MXM 50AP ARDE MAXIMIXER System
PROCESS VESSEL
Volume: 50 liter maximum operating batch size with 6" extra free board.
15 liter minimum operating level for homogenizer mixer (anchor/scraper agitation
can operate until vessel is completely empty).
Dimensions: 16" inside diameter with 2" deep ASME dished bottom head and 22" straight side.
Heat Transfer: 1 zone 12 gauge dimple jacketed for heating/cooling at 30 psig. temperature
probe with digital output.
Insulation: Vessel sheathed with 12 ga. T-304 S/S covering insulation
Finish: #4 finish on all interior and exterior surfaces. All welds ground smooth and flush.
Support: (3) 3" ASA T-304 S/S pipe legs with floor flanges with (4) bolt holes on natural
centerline.
Bottom Outlet: 1-1/2" diameter flush bottom ball valve with 1" dia. tri-clamp style fitting 15"
from bottom of valve to floor.
Cover: T-304 S/S, 3 separate functional divisions
1. Stationary semi-circle (opposite operator station) normally closed
2. Stationary middle quadrant with lip seals on all openings for mixers
Hinged cover on operator side.
Materials: T-316 S/S: Contact surfaces, cover, agitation system
T-304 S/S: Jacketing
T-304 S/S: Insulation sheath, legs, agitation support
PTFE: Scraper blades/blade holding rods
AGITATION SYSTEM
(2) Separate Reversible mixers to provide upon demand:
1. High shear homogenization, dispersion, and emulsification.
2. Positive incorporation and wet out of floating solid powders.
3. Scraped surface agitation of heat transfer surfaces during heating and cooling.
4. Positive radial rotation of batch throughout high viscosity range.
5. Deaeration via axial flow to surface level baffle plate.
SCRAPED SURFACE AGITATION
Configuration: Tubular anchor with one lower cross support on 4" diameter drive.
Scrapers: (10) [estimated] PTFE scraper blades affixed to anchor provide ½" of over
lapping scraping action on all heat transfer surfaces. Blades are attached to anchor by
½" diameter continuous PTFE rods. No screws, clamps, cotter pins, threaded parts
are required. PTFE resistance to temperatures over 280 deg. F to provide longest life
in steam heat transfer service.
Operation: Reversible direction for scraping and cleaning at 25 RPM
Power package: 1 HP, 230/460 volt, 60 Hz, 3 Phase, TEFC wash down duty motor (Requires
motor starter or inverter).
included in this proposal.
Drive: Worm gear reducer through flexible coupling
REVERSIBLE HOMOGENIZER MIXER
High velocity flow mixer for dispersion of stabilizers such as carbopol, xanthan gum, CMC, pregel starch and other thickeners. Unique “DOWN MODE” operation is able to quickly draw in and wet out powders from the surface. By reversing to the “UP MODE”, the highest flow rate and shear rate can be exerted while eliminating air incorporation. By adjusting the baffle plate level, fine grain emulsions with droplet size distributions in the single micron area are possible.
Configuration: Model CJ-4E Reversible Homogenizing mixer, 22" immersion length,
1.875" dia., 3 blade rotor on 0.50" diameter shaft with rulon bearing. Three
support rods hold 2.25" diameter rotor housing with 3" diameter adjustable
baffle plate.
Operation: Reversible direction flow for: fast incorporation of floating solid powders in
down-mode; high speed (10,000 RPM) homogenization, emulsification and
dispersion in up-mode; atmospheric deaeration by operation in up-mode at
intermediate speed.
Power package: 0.75 HP, 10,000 RPM, 120 volt, 1 phase, 60 Hz, TEFC motor.
Requires motor starter or invertor - not included in this proposal.
Drive: Direct coupled with stainless seal shaft couplings.
