IKA DBI (recirculation)

The dispersing machine DBI 2000 enables suction, pumping, and self-cleaning under CIP conditions. The dispersing machine DBI 2000 has a patented two-stage design. This allows for it to be mounted onto a production plant in such a manner that the product is transferred through either one or both stages. The first level of the dispersing machine DBI 2000 has a bottom stirrer and a special pump rotor that creates turbulence in the vessel and high circulation capacities, even for highly-viscous products. The second stage of the dispersing machine DBI 2000 is equipped with a rotor-stator system that ensures qualitative homogenizing and tight particle size distribution. The suction of powders or liquids directly into the mixing chamber of the dispersing machine DBI 2000 is possible without an additional vacuum pump.

The advantages of the high-performance mixing and dispersing machine DBI 2000 are:

Viscosities of up to 100 Pas can be processed – without an additional pump
2-stage operation for homogeneous products: Upper stage with pump rotor for powerful throughput. In the lower stage, a rotor-stator system generates high shear forces. This results in stable dispersions and narrow particle size distributions
Due to the strong negative pressure in the dispersion chamber, liquid and solid additives are sucked in reliably
During cleaning, the DBI can serve as a CIP pump for the SPP plant
