Specifications

Why Choose Our product?

1. Adaptable Design: Adjust mixer-settler stages, agitator speed, and phase interface height for diverse processes.
2. Zero-Leak Guarantee: High corrosion-resistant materials (PP/PVC) ensure durability in harsh chemical environments.
3. Smart Automation: Integrate sensors (temperature, pH, liquid level) for precise control and data tracking.
4. Scalable Solutions: Modular structure supports rapid installation, expansion, or process changes.
5. Energy Efficiency: 30% lower energy use vs. traditional tanks, aligning with green manufacturing goals.

Material & Processing

• PP/PVC/PMMA: Ideal for acidic/alkaline media, offering transparency (optional) for real-time monitoring.
• Laser-Cut Welding: Ensures leak-proof joints and structural integrity under high stress.

How It Works

1. Mixing Phase: Agitators blend two-phase liquids (organic/aqueous) for optimal mass transfer.
2. Settling Phase: Low-turbulence design accelerates phase separation.
3. Extraction: Adjustable weirs control interface levels, maximizing yield.

Key Applications

• Pharma/Biotech: Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) purification.
• Rare Earth Metals: Lithium, cobalt, nickel recovery from batteries.
• Environmental: Heavy metal removal from wastewater.

User Guide

1. Pre - Installation
   Before installation, a meticulous check for material compatibility with your process media is crucial. Different chemicals and substances can react with the materials of the equipment, leading to corrosion, degradation, or leaks. Analyze the chemical composition of your process media, including pH levels, presence of solvents, and potential reactive elements. Compare these characteristics with the material properties of the Pilot Extraction Tank, such as the type of metal, plastic, or rubber used. This verification ensures that the equipment will function optimally and have a long - lasting performance without being compromised by chemical interactions.
2. Operation
   During operation, calibration of sensors and setting the agitation speed via the touchscreen is a straightforward yet essential task. Sensors, which monitor variables like temperature, pressure, and flow rate, need to be calibrated regularly to provide accurate data. Using the user - friendly touchscreen interface, input the appropriate calibration values based on reference standards. Simultaneously, adjust the agitation speed according to the requirements of your process. Whether it's a gentle mixing for delicate substances or a high - speed agitation for more viscous materials, the touchscreen allows for precise control, ensuring efficient and effective operation.
3. Maintenance
   Monthly maintenance involving the inspection of seals and agitator bearings is vital for the smooth running of the equipment. Seals prevent leaks, safeguarding the integrity of the process and protecting the environment from potential spills. Check for signs of wear, such as cracks, swelling, or reduced elasticity. Agitator bearings, on the other hand, support the rotation of the agitator. Inspect for any abnormal noise, excessive heat, or play in the bearing. Lubricate the bearings if necessary. Regular maintenance helps detect and address issues early, preventing major breakdowns and extending the lifespan of the Pilot Extraction Tank.
