Q-Pumps dry blender combines powers of a mixer and a cone

The QDB dry blender by Q-Pumps

York Fluid Controls supports Canadian manufacturers with a wide range of pumping and mixing solutions. Q-Pumps offers the most economic, efficient, and versatile mixer series on the market, perfectly designed for applications that require homogenization or disintegration during pumping – and all constructed according to 3-A and EHEDG standards. A key example is the unique QDB dry blender, known for an unmatched modular design for multiple purposes.

Integrated valve for improved ergonomics

The modular design of this dry blender consists of a Q-Pumps QIM inline mixer combined with a work table and a cone. This simplifies the process of adding powders and makes the QDB suitable for powder, liquid, and disintegration of solids. In addition, the QDB includes an integrated valve for improved ergonomics, making it physically safer for workers to use. Another advantage is a ball valve that prevents clogging.

The QDB blender is the perfect pick for the food-processing industry. Among the many food products for which this unit is recommended are dairy products, dough, pasta, sauces, confectionary, dressing, powder, and purees. Other specifications for this dry blender include the following: flow of 1,333 litres per minute; pressure of 92 pounds per square inch; viscosity of 600 centipoise; and working temperature range from ten to 150 degrees Celsius.

The QIM inline mixer is available from York Fluid Controls either as part of the QDB or on its own. Designed for easy cleaning, this is the most versatile mixer available, with five different back-plate options custom-designed for each application. And by adding a Q-Pumps QTS twin screw pump, the user can easily convert the QDB into a QVM high-viscosity mixer. The modular design enables a range of abilities.
