Ytron ZC Powder Dispersion Unit

Principle of Operation

The Quadro Ytron ZC Powder Disperser incorporates a close tolerance high shear slotted rotor/stator design. The rotor is designed to create a liquid ring generating significant vacuum in the reactor head. This vacuum ensures that powders from the hopper above are drawn into the reactor head where they are sheared into the liquid phase before hydration takes place. The result is a smooth consistent, lump-free slurry without recirculating and over-shearing the product after hydration takes place.
