THE GLASLOCK® SYSTEM
8Pages

THE GLASLOCK® SYSTEM The GlasLock system allows installation of specific blade profiles as well as several flights of blades to better suit the process requirements. This system, therefore, makes it possible to obtain small, non-agitated volumes less than 1%. PROCESS SYSTEMS

The only system in the world with removable blades This system has been especially designed for BE reactors where the main opening is the manhole, but is usable for all kinds of reactors. Fitting and dismantling are carried out laterally, making it possible to work on the scraping agitators without completely dismantling them. With multi-tiered agitators, it is possible to modify just one stage independently of the others by leaving the agitator in place. The assembly of a blade in its conical emplacement, both fully enamelled, is done using a manual tool according to a simple procedure....

Blade angle at 90° • 100% radial flow • Very important shear • Applications: all dispersion process Blade angle at 60° (the most common used position) • 2/3 radial - 1/3 axial flow • Important shear • Applications: homogenization, heat transfer, suspension

Blade angle at 45° • 50% radial flow - 50% axial flow • Medium shear • Moderate agitation • Pumping effect • Applications: homogenization, suspension

The Hydrofoil blades Improvement of the pumping effect, low power consumption • Major axial flow • Medium shear • Moderate agitation • Applications: suspension of particles • Dissolution, crystallization (fragile crystals) • Heat transfer

The Optifoil blades • Run low volumes with high axial flow • Facilitates the emptying of the reactor • Do not damage fragile crystals • Improved combination of Hydrofoil / Trapezoidal blades • Improved suspension • Strong flow close to the bottom • Non agitated volume for 40m3 reactor: ±300 l The Viscofoil blades 11-03-2019 11:43:14 www.dedietrich.com - 6 of 8 pages

Viscosity up to 120,000 cP Two kinds of blades Viscofoil (Bottom & Shell) designed to follow the profile of there actor angled at 45° to generate axial flow.
