The M-110Y Microfluidizer® Processor is a lab machine that provide 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 a low of 1,500 to 23,000 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-110Y Microfluidizer® Processor for micro-mixing in the laboratory:

• Unique wear-resistant interaction chamber
• Guaranteed scaleup through production
• All wetted metal parts - 300 series stainless steel (plunger is chrome plated)
• Jacketed 17 ft. cooling coil (13 ml holdup volume)*
• Easy in-line cleaning and simple maintenance
• Air-powered, explosion-proof
• Portable, benchtop unit
• Sanitary fittings
• Submersible in cooling or heating bath total holdup volume without cooling coil is 30 ml

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.
