Packo High Shear Pump Series SFP2 & SFP3
The new, efficient high shear mixing method developed by Packo is based on the proven EHEDG certified pump series FP2 with open impeller and series FP3 with closed impeller. The Packo shear mixer pump is mainly used for in-line mixing, homogenisation and dispergation applications.
The shear is generated between the rotor and an innovative and optimized perforated stator (patent pending). The shear can be optimized and increased by raising the speed of rotation. Shear rates up to 40.000 s-1 can be achieved at a maximum speed of 3600 rpm!
The final goal is to achieve a homogeneous solution of two liquids with high difference in viscosity and/or density and to obtain a particle size reduction for emulsions and particles.
The smooth operational performance achieved by this conforms with the uniqe precision and quality you have come to expect from all Packo components.
Thanks to the special designed stator (patent pending) together with small clearance between rotor and stator an important shear will be generated resulting in a significant particle size reduction (from 1.4 up to 2 µm)! A smaller particle size will result in a more stable final product.
The benefits of the Packo High Shear Pump Series SFP2 & SFP3 include:
* High efficient so less energy cost!
* Use of std. components, easy maintenance.
* Several seal configurations available.
* ATEX available.
* Monobloc execution, easy installation.
* Easy to clean (CIP and SIP).
* ‘Self’ pumping.
* High mechanical & hydraulic shear.
* Rapid solid dissolving.
* Particle size reduction leading to a stable product.
