Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides a detailed description of the Omega® Economic Dispersionizer by NETZSCH Grinding & Dispersing, highlighting its advanced dispersion process, technical specifications, and advantages in industrial applications.
Dispersion Process
The Omega® Economic Dispersionizer utilizes targeted dispersive forces to separate agglomerated particles effectively. The process involves transforming energy into high speeds under pressure within the disperser body, creating turbulence and cavitation combined with shearing forces for optimal dispersion. The system is adaptable to various operating conditions and formulations, leading to reduced energy consumption and wear compared to traditional technologies.
Technical Specifications
The Omega® models vary in flow rate, operating pressure, and power, catering to different industrial needs. The Omega® 60 is suitable for laboratory and pilot plant applications, while the Omega® 500, 2000, and 4000 models are designed for larger industrial applications. All models are ATEX-compliant and feature wear-resistant materials.
Applications
The Omega® is suitable for dispersing a wide range of products, including micro- and nanoparticles, lacquers, varnishes, metal oxides, pigments, resins, emulsions, and more. It handles both low and high viscosity products efficiently.
Advantages
Technical: Effective dispersion, reduced heat development, high efficiency, and easy cleaning.
Commercial: Simple integration, high throughput, low energy consumption, and reduced maintenance costs.
Environmental: Lower energy and cooling water consumption, minimal cleaning agents required.
Company Information
NETZSCH is a global technology company with a focus on grinding and dispersing solutions. With over 3,700 employees in 36 countries, NETZSCH offers proven excellence in technology and customer service.

Economic Dispersionizer Dispersion Process Principles of Operation Successful dispersion requires targeted force in order to separate agglomerated particles. The Omega® Economic Disperser applies dispersive forces then and there, where they are especially effective: in the Omega® disperser body, energy is transformed into very high speeds under pressure. Turbulence and cavitation in perfect combination with specifically-applied shearing forces ensure maximum dispersion results. In addition, the system can be easily adapted to different operating conditions or formulations thanks to the Omega®...

1 The product is often predispersed (e.g. in a dissolver) and brought to a certain degree of fineness. The Omega® can be connected easily at any preliminary stage and can replace other technologies; the entire process remains unaltered. The pre-treated product is directed through the feed tank into the Omega® by means of a feed pump. 2 The middle-pressure pump of the Omega® conveys the product into the disperser body at a constant volume flow rate. Due to special design features processing of higher viscosities is also trouble-free. 3 The innovative dispersion process takes place inside the Omega®...

Omega® 60 Due to its size, weight and throughput of 18 l/h to 60 l/h, the Omega® 60 is suitable for applications in a laboratory environment and in pilot plants. In production, it has proven its worth especially for smaller batches. The standard Omega® 60 is a portable IP model. Optionally, an ATEX-compliant model is also available. Omega® 500 With a throughput of 150 l/h to 500 l/h, the Omega® 500 is suited for standard industrial production. The Omega® 500 is offered in various configurations and is designed as a standard machine for industrial use. Typical batch sizes for batch production...
