Enviromental PreservationVR line mixers
Key features
Conventional line mixers show a decline in mixing performance with uniform-pressure flow fluctuations. Meanwhile, these VR mixers can easily achieve the wide area adjustment of the flow to a uniform pressure.
Line mixers can be adjusted to various processes.
Features of VR mixers
VR mixers are suitable for mixing fluid-fluid and also fluid-gas. The mixers can instantly atomize and mix two fluids, which enables mixing and reaction processes that are traditionally deemed difficult to achieve, such as emulsion formation and microbubble generation.
Flow adjustment function (adjustable type)
Flow volume adjustment and fluid-flow mixing over a wide range are optionally available. The flow volume can also be optionally adjusted before shipment with semi-fixed type mixers according to the fluid type.
There are 2 types of displays, memory display and a dial gauge display.
Various materials, ranging from SUS304 to PVC, are used to correspond with various types of fluids.
Cleaning out place (COP)
It is easy to clean the inside of the line mixers when the individual devices are disassembled.
Most piping standards, such as JIS flange and ANSI, ISO tube ferrule, are applicable.
Principle
Mechanism of VR mixers (flow-volume adjustable type)
- The two fluids inside the mixer are pressurized before they enter the venturi orifice, while the flow-adjusting needle adjusts the flow volume and pressure.
- Once past the venturi orifice, the fluids create turbulence and are thoroughly mixed together due to the pressure difference caused by the distance between the outer circumference and the center of the mixer.
- The fluids that are processed in the venturi orifice are then transformed into a completely atomized mixed fluid in the cutter-needle part before being discharged.
Applications
Fluid–Fluid mixing
- Mixing of water and oil, such as heavy oil (for combustion process)
- Mixing of waste oil and organic solvent (for regenerated fuel)
- Fast neutralization of a fluid-fluid mixture (for wastewater treatment and chemical devices)
- Mixing of a drink concentrate and water (for drinking water)
- Uniform mixing of hydrophobic drugs (for various production processes)
Gas-Fluid mixing
- Dissolution and reaction of ozone gas (for wastewater treatment, medical)
- Fast neutralization of a fluid-gas mixture (for wastewater treatment, chemical devices)
- Dissolution of O2 (for fisheries, medical, beverages, etc.)
- Dissolution of N2 (for beverages and corrosion control)
- Creation of microbubbles
- Creation of microbubbles for dissolved air flotation (for wastewater treatment)
Solid-Fluid mixing
- Uniform dispersion of a powder in a fluid

※The flow-volume setting for the semi-fixed model is adjusted with our equipment (cascade pump) based on conditions that include the use of crystal water, a pressure of 1 MPa, a viscosity of 1 cP, and a normal temperature (25 ℃).
※Additional adjustments can be made with different specifications after sample fluids are received.
※ We can also provide other specifications than the ones above, if requested.
