About this equipment

The UZX-986 high shear mixer disperses, homogenizes and emulsifies liquids directly in the process vessel. Its rotor and stator workhead mounts on top, on the vessel flange or a mobile stand, or at the bottom of the vessel. Batches range from 10 to 12,000 L.

It is also known as a batch homogenizer, high shear homogenizer or emulsifying mixer. Compared with a standard agitator it works more intensely in a small volume and often cuts processing time by up to 90%.

How the high shear mixer works

The rotor spins fast inside the stator and creates strong suction at the center of the workhead. Liquids and solids are drawn in, and centrifugal force throws them toward the edge.

There the product passes through the narrow gap between the rotor tips and the stator wall, where it is sheared mechanically. It then leaves at high speed through the stator openings, with a second, hydraulic shear.

The radial flow sends the whole batch through the shear zone many times, until it reaches the target uniformity. Multi stage rotor and stator sets reduce droplets and agglomerates step by step.

Strengths

• Top or bottom entry, in 11 sizes from 1.5 to 75 kW, for open or closed vessels.

• Shorter processing than with a standard agitator, often by up to 90%.

• No dead zones with bottom entry, because the whole product passes through the workhead.

• Tip speed of 15–25 m/s for intense shear on every revolution.

• Interchangeable stators, slotted, round hole or fine mesh, to suit the product.

Where a high shear mixer is used

• Emulsions of liquids that do not blend, such as oil and water, with droplets reduced to a stable emulsion.

• Dispersions of powders in liquid, where solid agglomerates must be broken down.

• Suspensions where insoluble solids must stay in the liquid without settling.

• Food and pharmaceutical plants, where IP55 or IP65 motors withstand frequent washdowns.

• Abrasive chemical slurries, with rotor and stator teeth hardened by nitriding.

How to choose a high shear mixer

Top entry is the usual choice, because the unit is easy to remove and clean. On open vessels the shaft seal sits above the product, so a lip seal is enough and no costly mechanical seal is needed.

Bottom entry suits vessels with little headroom or with a liquid level that drops low. The product weight feeds the workhead directly, which lowers the risk of cavitation and draws in powders more easily. The vortex is smaller, so sensitive emulsions do not take in air.

The batch size sets the model. Each size covers a volume range, for example 200–1,500 L at 11 kW.

When the product must be deaerated or heated in the same vessel, the right choice is the vacuum emulsifying mixer UZX-985 for creams, emulsions and sauces, 10–2,000 L. For continuous homogenizing in the pipeline, see the inline high shear mixer UZX-987, single or three stage, 1.5–130 t/h.

Options

• Variable frequency drive for fine speed control.

• Single or double mechanical seal with a cooling system, for vessels under vacuum or pressure.

• Mobile stand with pneumatic or hydraulic lift, so one unit serves several vessels.

• Jacketed vessel for blending at a controlled temperature.

• ATEX motors and non sparking components for hazardous areas.

• Special contact materials, duplex, 904L, titanium or Hastelloy.

• Nitriding of the rotor and stator teeth for abrasive slurries.
