Lobestar Mixing Eductor for Sanitary Applications Header Graphic
 
LOBESTAR® MIXING EDUCTOR FOR LIQUID AND SANITARY APPLICATIONS (FOOD, COSMETIC AND PHARMACEUTICAL)
Effective blending and mixing are an essential part of everyday operations in most industrial process industries. Specific application requirements may vary but the ultimate achievement is to have a homogenous product. The LOBESTAR® Mixing Eductor is effective in speed mixing most powders and granular materials without the inherent problem of fisheyes or microgels. The LOBESTAR® NOZZLE is completely recessed out of the mixing chamber, providing an obstruction free passageway that eliminates plugging. 316 Stainles Steel Mixing Eductor with Hopper
The figure on the right is shown with a hopper but custom configurations are available with a hopper bypass so that a suction hose can be attached to draw material directly from a bag or tote.
The term "Eductor" describes a jet pump without moving parts and utilizes fluid in motion to produce low pressure. Motive power is provided by a centrifugal or gear pump. The pressurized fluid stream is converted from pressure-energy to high velocity as the fluid enters a unique nozzle configuration, known as the LOBESTAR® NOZZLE. The issuing high velocity jet stream produces a strong suction in the mixing chamber of the LOBESTAR® MIXING EDUCTOR, causing a powder, granular material or a secondary fluid to be drawn through a suction port into the mixing chamber of the LOBESTAR® MIXING EDUCTOR. An exchange of momentum occurs when the powder intersects with the motive fluid. The dynamic truculence between the two components produces an uniformly mixed stream traveling at a velocity intermediate between the motive and suction velocities through a constant diameter throat where mixing is completed. The diffuser is shaped to reduce the velocity gradually and convert velocity energy back to pressure at the discharge with a minimum loss of energy.

  Alternate Material Mixing Eductor   LOBESTAR® MIXING EDUCTORS are available in special materials, such as KYNAR® and UHMW. KYNAR® is one of the most stable commercial resins. KYNAR® resists strong acids, solvents and reducing agents. It's inherent chemical resistance and high purity make it ideal for contact applications with acids, chlorine, halogenated solvents and petrochemical mixtures.
