Arde Dicon Inline Dispersing Grinder 2 X 1 Laboratory System Brochure

DDIICCOONN Model 2 x 1 IINN--LLIINNEE DDIISSPPEERRSSIINNGG GGRRIINNDDEERRLABORATORY MIXERS THAT COMBINE GRINDING, DISPERSING, SHEARINGAND EMULSIFYING WITH PUMPINGModel 2x1 Dicon unit with 12 liter jacketed mixing vessel and recirculation piping and 3-way valve. The ARDE-Barinco Dicon in-line wet grinder is backed bythree decades of proven performance in high-volume produc-tion and lab applications around the world. Dicon providessolutions to a wide range of mixing and grinding problems. Dicon in-line dispersing grinders shred solid surfaces, grindparticles, smash agglomerates, and reduce dissolving or dis-persing time. The unique, high-shear design insures fast mix-ing and complete solid-to-liquid contact.MODEL 2x1 is perfect for Laboratories and Pilot Plants. Itprovides a complete system for wet grinding, dispersion, mix-ing and emulsifying on a small-scale. This vertical 2" diame-ter, in-line grinder features a recirculation line to the top of ajacketed, 12 liter stainless steel vessel.All products successfully made with the 2x1 Dicon in the laboratory can be scaled up to full production.Meshed Teeth Take a Bite Out of the Toughest Mixing TasksA unique and patented impeller, with three helical blades,rotates at high speed inside a matching, tubular housing. Therotating impeller creates a negative pressure differential, cen-trifugal-shoveling and positive axial thrust - - drawing materi-als into intensive shear zones.Centrifugal force abruptly changes the materials’ directionand drives them against the inner surface of the toothed liner.Sharply-angled teeth on the edges of the impeller bladesshear the materials and force them through a tortuous path. Grinding action repeatedly accelerates and decelerates mate-rials, forcing them to undergo numerous changes in direction. Materials are crushed and subjected to eddy currents in avery high turbulence zone between the two sets of intermesh-ing teeth. This grinding action is continuously repeated as thematerials move toward the discharge port. Positive Particle Size ControlMaterials must exit through one of the small precision ports.The partially-restricted discharge area provides reproducablecontrol of both retention time and dispersion.The precisely machined orifices of the discharge plate gridassure positive particle size conrol and prevent nozzle clog-ging - - even in single-pass processes. Versatility and ScaleabilityEasy-to-change impellers, liners and discharge gates allowone Dicon in-line grinder to disperse, grind, emulsify, shear,mix or blend up to 70% solids or liquids with viscosities ashigh as 250,000 centipoise. Designed for use in line orrecirculating, continuous one-pass operation or in a recir-culation loop. It’s a durable, versatile grinder and pumpwith hundreds of potential applications.Toothed impeller/liner combination showing full open discharge, 1/4” grid and1/16” grid.
