ULTRA TURRAX® | UTC / UTS - Top entry

Applications

> Lotions

> Waxes

> Polishing agents

> Gelling agents

> Dyes

> Polymer emulsions

ULTRA TURRAX® | UTE - Bottom entry

High-shear Batch Mixers - bottom & side entry

The ULTRA-TURRAX® UTE, for bottom or side mounting to vessels, is mainly used for applications with varying filling levels and when strong spouts and air inclusions have to be avoided. Suitable for operation with pressures from 0.1 up to 16 bar and temperatures from -40 °C to 160 °C.

ULTRA-TURRAX® UTC Standard batch machines “top entry“ULTRA-TURRAX® UTS batch machines “top entry“ for sanitary applications

The stator of the UTC is supported by a tube, while the UTS is supported by solid rods that are mounted to a flange. For pressure and / or vacuumapplications, the mounting flange can be supplied in 316SS. For pressureless applications, a carbon steel or aluminum mounting flange is coated withchemical resistant paint. UTC and UTS-machines can either be installed on a closed vessel, or suspended over an open vessel. Preferred directions of installation: Angled from above or vertically off-center and at an angle.

Applications

> Lotions

> Wax emulsions

> Resin solutions

> Gelling agents

> Shampoos, conditioners

> Rubber solutions

* Depending on the product viscosity. Regular range 1 – 5,000 mPas.** Higher Tip Speeds can be achieved with optional VFD Speed Controller on all UTC and UTS models.

Advantages of the ULTRA-TURRAX® UTE:

> Prevents aeration> Capable of operating under pressures of up to 16 bar> CIP and SIP capable> No shaft tube where materials can stick> Machine can run at very low liquid levels> Easily cleaned> No bearings in the product

* Depending on the product viscosity. Regular range 1 – 5,000 mPas.** Higher Tip Speeds can be achieved with optional VFD Speed Controller on all UTC and UTS models.

TP .. ./2This rotor-stator-combination is the optimum solution for crushing, shreddingand dissolving of colloidal substances. In addition, the generators create a high stirring effect. The stator is closed on top so that the suction effect comes from below and there is no air intake. The generator also has an excellentdispersing effect.

T .. ./4This generator has been designed for theproduction of emulsions and suspension inmoderately viscous materials. The generator can produce high quality dispersions with a small particle distribution.

T .. ./6This generator is used for thin fluid emulsions, and suspensions with a low solids content when a smaller particle size is required. This generator may also be used for dissolving gases in liquids.

TMP .. ./2This generator also has a rotor equipped with axial crushing lugs. A high flow rate is obtained in the medium, while providing increased dispersing and consistent reduction of agglomerates.

ULTRA-TURRAX®

UTC-KD(vacuum / pressure)

For several decades, the ULTRA-TURRAX® name has been synonymous with quality and reliability. The machines are used for the production of any kind of emulsions, suspensions and hydro-colloidal solutions. A variety of exchangable generators (rotor + stator) enables further adaptations to the respective mixing task. Moreover, different types of seals allow different fitting positions as well as working under pressure up to 10 bar and with temperatures up to approx. 160 °C.

The models UTC, UTS and UTE mainly differ in regards to the peripheral design, the type of seal and assembly in the vessel. Nevertheless, the generators from these models are always the same so that the same mixing result is achieved. While the machine types UTC and UTS are designed for top entry, the UTE is mounted on the vessel bottom. Therefore, the UTE model is preferred in case of varying filling levels in the container.
