HSM-03V benchtop lift mixers feature automatic torque control, allowing them to mix high or low-viscosity materials or perform high-speed dispersions with a single mixer. A 3 hp DC motor provides constant torque, allowing mix viscosities exceeding 100,000 CPS to be achieved with a supplied bowtie-style impeller. Marine-style, hydrofoil or turbine impellers can be used for materials with lower viscosities.
Dispersion blades can be used for high-speed dispersions up to 50,000 CPS. An ABB Baldor DC speed control requires a 230V AC power supply and features torque priority or speed priority modes. The standard speed range of 60 to 1,200 rpm can be changed to 135 to 2,800 rpm.
Safety features include a limit switch that stops shaft rotation when the unit is raised to a selected height or if the container becomes insecure. The shaft guard limits access to the rotating shaft. A front-facing emergency stop button is easily accessible if needed.
A large stainless-steel work surface with a backsplash accommodates containers up to 5 gallons. A container bracket with an easy hand knob retention system is easy to operate. The rigid carbon steel frame stands up to the most demanding applications.
This small batch mixer is ideal for use in product development labs or production environments across a wide range of applications including viscous printing inks or dispersions, and drywall mud, as well as lower viscosity materials like paint.
