M-710 microfluidiser processor model reduces particles and droplets to sub-micron sizes in a single pass, offering a cost-effective scale-up alternative
Microfluidics introduces the M-710 Microfluidizer processor, a stainless steel 100 HP high-shear fluid processor designed to complement the existing M-700 series product offering.
Capable of producing flow rates anywhere from two gallons per minute (GPM) at 40,000psi to more than ten GPM at 5000psi in batch or continuous mode, the M-710 is a suitable alternative to expensive high-pressure fluid processors or traditional homogenizers.
With the aid of the dual synchronous intensifier pumping system, the product is kept flowing at high velocities and near constant pressure through the patented fixed geometry interaction chamber, resulting in shear forces intense enough to reduce particles and droplets to sub-micron sizes with narrow and uniform distribution, usually in a single pass.
Additionally, the M-710 processor is capable of uniform deagglomeration, dispersing and distributing particles to create very stable emulsions and solids-in-liquid suspensions.
The lightweight Zirconia ceramic plungers within the intensifier pumps incorporate long life, wear-resistant high-pressure seals, and when coupled with the interaction chamber's abrasion-resistant ceramic or diamond construction keep maintenance and repair costs to a minimum.
The M-710 comes with an optional Ultra-Clean-in-Place (UCIP) feature that thoroughly cleans the system between batches or before storage.
Because the interaction chamber employs no moving parts, no disassembly is required for cleaning.
Most existing options and accessories for the M-700 series are compatible with the M-710 product line, including flush diaphragm pressure transducers, feed pumps and temperature sensors, and a split-system design for clean room production areas with limited space.
