INTENSIFIER Τ Υ Ρ Ε - u s e wire cage bar assembly to obtain intensive mixing of hard to blend dry solids or to break up agglom­ erates. Average blending time for dry formulation is approximately 3 to 5 minutes.

FOR GENTLE PRECISION BLENDING

— simply remove wire cage bar —unique blending action will not cause attrition or break down even the most delicate crystals. Average blending time 3 to 5 minutes.

The amazing versatility of this P-K Type ( LV ) Lab blender lies in the construction of the removable, spring-loaded liquidfeed bar assembly. An exclusive, patented seal design prevents materials or liquids from entering the bearing housings. The. standard ( LV ) Lab blenders are available in 8 and 16 quart capacities and in trans­ parent Lucite or stainless steel. The interior of shell and stainless steel bar assembly can be clinically cleaned in minutes. Units can be shipped from stock and only con­ ventional wall outlet is required to operate.
