100 HP High-Shear Fluid Processor
Recommended for:
* Stable Solids-in-Liquids Dispersions
* Stable Microemulsions
* Submicron Particles (Nanoparticles)
* Deagglomeration
The new Model M-710 is a 100 HP high shear fluid processor capable of producing flow rates anywhere from 2 gpm (7.6 l/m) at 40,000 psi (2760 bar) to more than 15 GPM (57 l/m) at 5,000 psi (345 bar). The dual synchronous intensifier pumping system develops high velocities through the patented fixed geometry interaction chambers. This action creates shear forces that reduce particles and droplets to submicron sizes with narrow and uniform distribution, usually in a single pass.
The lightweight longer lasting Zirconia (ceramic) plungers within the intensifier pumps ensure long life for high- pressure seals. This, coupled with the interaction chamber’s abrasion-resistant ceramic or diamond wear surfaces, keeps maintenance and repair costs to a minimum. Because the interaction chamber employs no moving parts, no disassembly is required for cleaning. All these features contribute to the M-710 Microfluidizer processor’s low cost of ownership.
Key benefits:
- Repeatable, uniform results with guaranteed scale-up from your lab or pilot results

Operating Principle
The M-700 Series contains an onboard 7.5 horsepower electric-hydraulic module that powers a double acting intensifier pump. The intensifier pump amplifies the hydraulic pressure to the selected level which, in turn, imparts that pressure to the product stream. Process pressures may be selected with the simple turn of a knob.
The intensifier pump is designed to supply the desired pressure at a constant rate to the product stream. As the pump travels through its pressure stroke, it drives the product at constant pressure through the interaction chamber. Within the chamber are specially designed fixed-geometry microchannels through which the product stream will accelerate to high velocities, creating high shear and impact forces that bring about the desired results as the high velocity product stream impinges on itself and on wear-resistant surfaces.
As the intensifier pump completes its pressure stroke, it reverses direction and draws in a new volume of product. At the end of the intake stroke, it reverses direction and again drives the product at constant pressure, repeating the process.
Upon exiting the interaction chamber, the product flows through an onboard heat exchanger which regulates the product to a desired temperature. At this point the product may be recirculated through the system for further processing or directed externally to the next step in the process.
