ATENG 10885 — Liquid/Solid Mixing Unit
Anodized aluminum frame and panels made of painted steel.
The unit includes wheels for its mobility.
Main metallic elements of stainless steel.
Diagram in the front panel with similar distribution to the elements in the real unit.
- Dynamo brake motor, with speed regulation:
Its purpose is to make the agitator turn at preset revolutions value.
- Power: 0.37 kW. Revolutions: from 0 to 3000 rpm.
- Torque meter (load cell):
Its objective is to measure the torque established between the motor and the solution.
- Crowbar: 18.3 cm.
- Force range: 0 to 39.2 N.
- Vertical platform:
It allows to displace the dynamo brake motor vertically. It is operated by a spindle and a steering ATENG 10885 detail
wheel and its displacement is guided by lineal bearings.
- Agitators holder:
It is the element that allows to install different types of agitators. They are coupled with clamps.
- Agitators:
- They are the elements in charge of the agitation of the fluid, and they can be of different shapes and sizes:
- Two blades agitators, diameters: 100 mm and 50 mm.
- Two propeller agitators, diameters: 100 mm and 50 mm.
- Two turbine agitators, diameters: 100 mm and 50 mm.
The propeller agitators are used for mixing with viscosity higher than 2000 cp.
- Tanks:
Their purpose is to contain the fluid that we will use in the experiment. They are cylindrical and are made of transparent material, to
facilitate the observation of the stage of agitation in the fluid. They have removable covers to avoid spills and splashes of the fluid.
- Tank of 300 mm diameter and 300 mm height, with deflectors.
- Tank of 300 mm diameter and 300 mm height, without deflectors.
- Tank of 150 mm diameter and 300 mm height, with deflectors.
- Tank of 150 mm diameter and 300 mm height, without deflectors.
The capacity of the tanks is approx 21 and 5 l.
- Control panel:
ON / OFF motor switch, speed controller and speed display.
Torque display.
Cables and accessories, for normal operation.
