The Arde Barinco Axial-Flow Reversible
Homogenizer provides consistent, measured
flow through its high-shear zone. Standard
radial flow mixers use total flow calculated
with optimistic assumptions.
Not the precision most process engineers
require.
For more than 30 years, process engineers
in the chemical, food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical,
textile and coatings industries have
relied on the Reversible Homogenizer from
Arde Barinco. Its high-shear axial flow and
highly efficient dual mode process disperses,
emulsifies, and ‘wets out’ powders and
re-suspends settled solids. And it works in a
fraction of the time it takes ordinary mixers.
ADJUSTABLE SHEAR
With a simple adjustment, you set the gap
between rotor and stator exactly where you
want it: tighten it for the highest shearing
rates of any batch rotor/stator on the market.
This creates a degree of precision that
produces colloid mill-type results from a
rotor/stator batch mixer.
TRUE REVERSIBILITY
Other mixers may claim to be reversible, but
their radial impellers simply push the mixture
sideways, regardless of which direction they
turn. The Arde Barinco Reversible
Homogenizer offers true reversibility.
The Reversible Homogenizer’s efficient, axial flow
impeller creates two distinct mixing actions,
depending on direction. Downward Vortex flow
pulls in solids that tend to float on top and pushes
off solids that settle on the bottom. The upward
Umbrella flow ensures thorough control of the mixing
at the highest shearing and recirculation rates
without splashing or incorporating air.
REMARKABLY EFFICIENT
The Reversible Homogenizer’s incredible efficiency
comes from a hydrodynamically optimized pumping
design that provides higher recirculating rates
through a far wider range of viscosity profiles. In
addition, every model utilizes close-clearance
zones to provide a combination of intense mechanical
and hydraulic shear forces.
Because the Reversible Homogenizer works faster
than conventional mixers, you increase throughput
without increasing operating costs. Why run two
standard mixers when one Reversible Homogenizer
can do the job?
There’s a wide range of Reversible Homogenizers
available, from the lab-size CJ-4C to the high-volume
C-5-3. Each mixes materials in a wide range
of viscosities, and each outperforms competitive
mixers— even those with higher power requirements.
