The Ross HSD-15 high-speed disperser features an air/oil hydraulic lift with a telescoping cover, which allows users to mix different batch sizes and prevents stratification. The vessel is covered throughout the mixing cycle, helping to contain dust and vapors for improved operator safety and cleanliness.
The 12-in. disperser blade operates up to 1,590 rpm to induce vigorous turbulent flow within a low-viscosity batch, creating a vortex into which dry ingredients can be poured for fast wetting. The blade speed may be changed as the batch thickens or increases in volume to maintain the vortex and rate of material turnover. The cover has a 1/3 hinged port for the addition of powders into the 150-gal stainless steel mix vessel.
Operated from a 7-in. HMI display, the disperser features PLC controls that allow operators to program and run recipes based on speed, time, and hydraulic lift raise/lower cycles. Safety limit switches prevent operation of the mixer while in the raised position or without a mix vessel in place.
