Homogenizer

The principle of homogenising : When the product enters the valve area under high pressure and with low velocity it must pass the adjustable gap between the valve and seat. This creates a rapid increase in velocity with a corresponding pressure drop. The very high energy release causes turbulence, this in combination with powerful cavitation will tear apart particles to a submicron size. The high velocity collision of the product on the impact ring will further contribute to this action. Two stage homogenisation is required for products wich form aggregates after the first homogenising step. These aggregates can be broken by a second, low pressure homogenisation step.
