Fluid Processors suit clean room production areas.September 19, 2006 -
With split configuration that separates power module from processing module, M-700 Series Microfluidizer® Processors produce flow rates from 2 gpm at 40,000 psi to more than 10 gpm at 5,000 psi in batch or continuous mode. Power Module contains electric motor, cooling fan, hydraulic oil reservoir, and cooling system. With no electrical requirements, Processing Module operates by interconnecting pneumatic and hydraulic lines from remote Power Module.

Microfluidics Presents Split System for M-700 Series
Ideal for Clean Room Production Areas with Limited Space
Newton, Mass. - Microfluidics presents the Split System Microfluidizer® Processor for all M-700 Series models. This split configuration version of the processor is designed so that the Power Module, which contains the electric motor, cooling fan, hydraulic oil reservoir and cooling system, is separated from the Processing Module. With no electrical requirements, the Processing Module can safely operate by interconnecting pneumatic and hydraulic lines from the remote Power Module.
By separating the Processing Module, users no longer need to worry about atmospheric conditions, contamination, space issues and hazardous environments within the processing area. Additionally, audible noise levels are well below OSHA limits, thus eliminating the need for operators to wear cumbersome and awkward hearing protection.
The Split System offers the same features, options and accessories as the standard integral models. Capable of producing flow rates anywhere from two gallons per minute (GPM) at 40,000 psi to more than ten GPM at 5,000 psi in batch or continuous mode, the M-700 Series is a suitable alternative to expensive high-pressure fluid processors or traditional homogenizers.
With the aid of the dual synchronous intensifier pumping system, the product is kept flowing at high velocities and near constant pressure through the patented fixed geometry interaction chamber, resulting in shear forces intense enough to reduce particles and droplets to sub-micron sizes with narrow and uniform distribution, usually in a single pass. Additionally processors are capable of uniform deagglomeration, dispersing and distributing particles to create very stable emulsions and solids-in-liquid suspensions.
The M-700 Series comes with an optional Ultra-Clean-in-Place (UCIP) feature that thoroughly cleans the system between batches or before storage. Because the interaction chamber employs no moving parts, no disassembly is required for cleaning.
