M-110F Microfluidizer® Processor is a lab machine that provides the highest shear rates of any available mixer or homogenizer on the market today, maximizing the energy-per-unit fluid volume to produce uniform submicron particle and droplet sizes.

Process pressures are highly variable, ranging from 3,000 to 18,000 psi, enabling the processing of a wide variety of fluids ranging from simple oil-in-water emulsions to high-weight-percent solids in liquid suspensions. The system is easy to operate and is designed for in-line cleaning, requiring no disassembly.

The M-110F Microfluidizer processor for micro-mixing in the laboratory:

• Interaction chambers easily cleaned by flow reversal with the simple switch of a lever
• Unique, wear resistant, ceramic-lined interaction chamber – no moving parts in the process stream (diamond-lined chamber optional)
  
• Pressures 3,000 psi to 18,000 psi
  
• All wetted metal parts – 300 series stainless steel, 17-4PH stainless steel, or Nitronic 60. Plunger is chrome-plated (tungsten carbide optional).
  
• Air-powered and explosion-proof
  
• Portable, benchtop unit
  
• Results scaleable through pilot plant and production
  
• Sample size of 100 ml to continuous
  
• Easy in-line cleaning and simple maintenance

Products with higher solids content are easily accommodated in the M-110F because of a unique valve in the process stream. By merely shifting the position of one lever, flow direction is reversed and the interaction chambers are flushed with no break in containment and no product loss.

Operating Principle

Microfluidics' homogenizers contain air-powered intensifier pumps 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 precisely defined fixed-geometry microchannels within the interaction chamber.

As a result, the product stream accelerates to high velocities creating shear rates within the product stream that are orders of magnitude greater than any other conventional means. All of the product experiences identical processing conditions, producing the desired results, including: uniform particle and droplet size reduction (often submicron), deagglomeration and high yield cell disruption.
