NNP High shear mixer

• Emulsifying and homogenising liquid-liquid and liquid-solid mixtures in the food industry.
• Dispersing powders into liquids to create smooth, lump-free solutions or suspensions.
• Producing sauces, dressings, purees, and rehydrated products.
• Blending ingredients where a fine particle size reduction or uniform consistency is required.

Typical capacity

High shear mixers of this type are typically suitable for processing batches from several hundred litres up to several thousand litres, depending on the motor power and vessel size.

Power supply

Units in this class commonly operate on a 3-phase industrial electrical supply, typically 400V, 50Hz in the UK.

Construction material

For food processing applications, high shear mixers are almost exclusively constructed from stainless steel, ensuring hygiene and corrosion resistance.

Shear head diameter

The 120mm shear head diameter on this unit is indicative of a mixer designed for effective processing within medium-sized vessels.

Shaft length

A 600mm shaft length suggests suitability for integration with open-top vessels of typical industrial dimensions, allowing the head to be submerged effectively.

Mounting

This type of mixer is typically designed to be mounted over a processing vessel, often with a bridge or gantry system.

• What is the primary function of a high shear mixer?

  A high shear mixer is designed to rapidly blend, emulsify, homogenise, and disperse ingredients by creating intense mechanical and hydraulic shear forces, resulting in fine, uniform mixtures.

• Can this mixer handle viscous products?

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

• What maintenance is typically required for a high shear mixer?

• How does a high shear mixer differ from a standard agitator?

Lab mixers and stirrers hold strong reputations for reliability and durability. Buyers typically prioritise motor condition, speed range suitability, and vessel compatibility when purchasing used units. The equipment category is valued for consistent performance across research and production settings. Key strengths include robust construction, straightforward maintenance, and long operational lifespans. Corrosion resistance of wetted parts merits careful inspection. These devices remain dependable workhorses in pharmaceutical, biotech, and laboratory environments, offering solid value when sourced from reputable sellers with clear service histories.
