BENELUX

• The principle of the Jetstream mixer is based on the rotor-stator-system
• A fast rotating rotor produces a directed liquid stream
• A guiding tube surrounds the rotor
• It directs the liquid stream towards the bottom of the vessel
• Rotation of the liquid in the vessel is avoided
• The liquid stream is directed towards the bottom of the vessel where it is redirected to an upward stream
• On the surface, the stream again is redirected towards the bottom of the vessel
• In such a manner, the whole contents of the vessel is mixed and homogenised

Simultaneously mixing and dispersing

• The ystral Dispermix is being used when simple mixing is not sufficient but dispersing with a rotor-stator-system is too intensive
• The Dispermix causes an intensive mixing of the micro and macro range in the product and simultaneously disperses the product in one operation
• An additional second step with a high shear machines often is not required anymore
• The Dispermix offers an optimal mixing and dispersing energy, high economy of operation and simple handling and fulfils the demand of any fastidious production process
• The product is mixed without incorporation of air by a Vortex or along the mixing shaft
• The whole contents of the vessel, even high viscosity product, is mixed homogeneously and dispersed
• While mixing, all agglomerates are being broken and the particles are reduced down to their initial corn size and completely wetted
• An additional dispersing step with a high shear machine can be avoided in many cases
• The possibility to use an electronic speed control device, the modular design as well as the possibility of an individual selection of dispersing tools for each application fulfil the demand of any fastidious production process

Batch high speed dispersing

• Batch dispersers work according to the principle of a rotor-stator-system with a relatively high shear energy
• By the centrifugal forces in the rotor a circulation in the vessel can be achieved
• By impact and shear action a strong dispersing effect is reached during the passage through the rotor- stator-area
• During dispersing, the product has to pass through the system again and again
• This results in very fine suspensions, wet ground products or emulsions
• By an appropriate selection of the energy and dispersing tool the system may be adapted to individual processing steps, viscosity and processing aim
• Controlling the speed by a frequency converter extends the field of applications for different products and volumes
• Similar to a fast rotating mixing system, the batch disperser is installed onto the top or in the bottom of a vessel
• Batch dispersers are used for small to medium sized batches
• The limit is reached, when the product in the vessel does not circulate anymore because of the limitation in viscosity and volume
• Viscosity over 3.000 mPas normally can’t be treated economically anymore, in this case an inline dispersing system should be foreseen

Inline high speed dispersing

• Inline-machines work according to the principle of the rotor-stator-principle with a high shear energy
• Because of the combined effect of different particle reduction effects this machine achieves an extremely fine distribution of solid particles (suspensions) and liquids (emulsions) in a basic liquid
• The continuous disintegration is achieved with a high shear gradient in a rotor-stator-system, that may be adapted to different processing aims
• A robust construction, precise dispersing tools and a high efficiency guarantee an economical result
• The machines are easy to install to existing tanks and offer an easy integration into the existing piping system.
• Rotor and stator rings with different sizes of slots allow an individual adaptation to the given processing task
• With the use of a frequency converter, the range of applications can be extended further

Batch Powder Inducting, Wetting and Dispersing

• Dust
• Contamination of the working area
• Dirty powder transporting systems, that are difficult to clean
• Detrimental to health
• Exhaust systems and filters have to be installed
• Loss of powder (during filling, in the filter of exhaust systems, remnants in the bags
• Partial wetted crusts at the wall of the vessel and mixing shaft
• Agglomerates in the product

These problems can be avoided by directly inducting the granulate or the powder into the liquid and immediately wet and disperse it when the product comes in contact with the liquid.

• No vacuum vessels or additional vacuum pumps are required
• The induction vacuum is directly created in a highly accelerated liquid stream.
• The vacuum fluidises the powder and brings it finely distributed in contact with the liquid.
• Simultaneously to the wetting, the product is dispersed, no lumps and/or agglomerates can build up.
• Powdery materials may be inducted dust-free and without any loss of powder from any type of powder container.
  
  The system that was used to realise this idea became known under the name

TDS-system (Transport- and Dissolving System).

Inline Powder Inducting, Wetting and Dispersing

• The ystral Conti-TDS is a machine for the dust-free induction, wetting and dispersing of powders into a liquid
• It is designed according to the rotor-stator-principle and creates the required vacuum to induct the powder into the shear zone of the dispersed and highly accelerated  liquid stream by itself
• Different to other ystral TDS-machines, the machine is not installed into but placed outside of the respective vessel
• With this set-up all the energy is converted to wetting and dispersing energy into a very small volume in the mixing head

Same as all other TDS-machines, this system offers the following advantages:

• Dust-free handling without any loss of powder, no decanting, no exhaust systems, no filter systems are required
• Direct induction from bags, silo, BigBag or powder container
• Immediate and complete wetting, directly into the liquid stream, no partially wetted crust at the wall of the vessel and/or the mixing shaft
• Higher degree of dispersion compared to conventional mixing and dispersing principles
• Even liquids and gases may be inducted
• CIP-cleaning without disassembly
