December 31, 2024

Designed for processing emulsions, dispersions, and suspensions, the FDA-600 heavy-duty dual-shaft mixer has a 600-gallon working capacity, is capable of vacuum operation up to 29.5"Hg, constructed in stainless steel type 304, and features two independently driven top-entering agitators. The first is a two-wing anchor agitator powered by a 30 HP motor, designed to motivate product from the sidewalls and vessel bottom at a constant rate, promoting continual batch turnover. The second agitator is a high-speed disperser driven by a 150 HP motor and equipped with a 15" diameter sawtooth blade mounted on a vertically adjustable hub that can accommodate different batch sizes.

The mix vessel incorporates a dished bottom, 3" flush tank ball valve and legs providing 12" of clearance beneath the discharge outlet. A stainless-steel dimple jacket on the sidewall is provided for heating/cooling media up to 50 PSIG at 250 °F. The mixer cover includes an 18” charge port, an 8" dust collection flange, along with additional nozzles for liquid addition and vacuum connection. 

User friendly touch screen controls include agitator speed management, cycle timer, temperature and vacuum displays, and an Emergency Stop push button all located in a NEMA 12 panel. The controls package, built by ROSS Systems & Controls, is rigorously tested with the mixer prior to shipment, ensuring fast and seamless start-up.

The mixer is engineered for wide-ranging densities and viscosities up to several hundred thousand centipoise, catering to multiple industries including chemicals, composites, batteries, adhesives, and coatings.
