Solid liquid Mixer

The IKA CMS 2000 is an in-line mixer that creates a strong vacuum to feed powders at high flow rates and disperse them into a liquid stream. This extremely high suction capacity is ideal for wetting out difficult-to-mix powders. The CMS is typically installed in a batch (re-circulation) arrangement.

The machine CMS offers a functional and cost-efficient method of incorporation of solids into liquids in a simple way - without additional dosing systems. Additionally, this method of incorporation eliminates the disadvantages associated with traditional batch processes with a stirrer in a vessel.

The IKA CMS has two horizontal liquid connections and a vertical solids connection. The liquids connections (liquid inlet and mixture outlet) are attached to a vessel. The solids are aspirated over the vertical connection (solids inlet).

A liquid phase is filled into a vessel. A negative pressure is created inside the machine by displacement of the liquid in connection with high flow speeds. This enables suction of the solids directly from a packing (bag, barrel, big bag empty station or similar) by means of a suction pipe or from a run-down funnel. Solids and liquids are conveyed in two separate rotor stages and are only combined in the area with the highest turbulence, which guarantees an agglomeration-free dispersion of the product.

The IKA CMS 2000 is available in eight different sizes. The possible suction rates vary from 20 to 28.000 kg/h. All sizes of the machine work with the same circumferential speed of the rotor which ensures a reliable scale-up.
