A great way to pulverize

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Reducing ceramic, mineral and glass samples to fine powder

Used to pulverize glass and ceramic samples to fine powder, a very useful piece of equipment, saves the hassle of using a mortar and pestle to pulverize.

Average Rating 3.7

Application Area:

Reducing ceramic, mineral and glass samples to fine powder

I deal with lots of mineral, ceramic and glass samples that need to be reduced to a fine powder for XRD and XRF analyses. The RS200 can usually get these samples down to a powder in a minute or so. We have 3 grinding sets, one made of steel, one made of WC and one lined with agate. Be aware that the WC set is very heavy and if you use it to grind up a sample for XRF analysis you will detect W XRF lines in the resultant spectrum. I usually use the steel grinding set, this doesn't give the spectroscopic contamination and is less heavy.

The instrument runs steadily and smoothly, even with heavy grinding sets, at maximum speed thanks to the new Stabilized-Plane-Drive.
With its robust design, the RS 200 has proven to be ideal for use in the building materials sector (cement), in geology, mineralogy, metallurgy and in power plants. Due to the high end fineness and speed the RS 200 is the perfect mill when it comes to preparing samples for spectral analysis.

Product advantages:

  • reproducible results due to "Stabilized-Plane-Drive" (avoids tumbling of the grinding set)
  • variable speed 700 - 1,500 min-1
  • extremely short grinding time
  • agate and tungsten carbide recognition for automatic speed reduction
  • 10 SOPs can be stored
  • no sample loss thanks to optimum o-ring seal
  • wide range of materials for contamination free grinding
  • noise-insulated grinding chamber
  • new quick-action grinding set clamping device for convenient and safe tightening
  • safety interlock
  • easy 1-button operation with colored graphics display
  • new carry handle
  • new ergonomic design, heavy grinding sets can be inserted closer to the user´s body and slided into the machine, leading to less strenuous laboratory work especially for high throughput users
