ACCURACY & EFFICIENCY
- Circular sieving motion according to DIN 53477
- For sieves up to (Ø) 400 mm
- Measuring range 45 μm to 63 mm
- Easy operation, ergonomic design
- Free digital selection of process parameters (time, speed, interval)
- Memory for 9 Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)
- Test materials monitoring according to DIN EN ISO 9001
FUNCTIONAL PRINCIPAL
The base plate of the AS 400 control performs horizontal circular motions with a radius of 15 mm (according to DIN 53477). The speed of 50 to 300 rpm is electronically controlled. It is continuously adjustable to meet the requirements of the product to be sieved. The actual value of the number of revolutions is digitally displayed. The base plate is driven by a robust, maintenance-free drive motor with a power of 125 Watt. The power is transmitted via an eccentric.
ACCESSORIES
RETSCH sieve shakers can be equipped with a variety of accessories to meet a wide range of application requirements.
- Clamping units
With the RETSCH clamping devices the sieves are clamped safely, quickly and conveniently on the sieve shaker. The clamping devices “comfort” are particularly user-friendly and timesaving.
- Accessories for test sieves
Collecting pans, intermediate pans, intermediate rings and sieve lids.
- Accessories for wet sieving
Clamping lid with nozzle, collecting pans with outlet, venting rings.
- Sieving Aids
Chain rings, brushes, cubes, balls (e.g. for reducing agglomerations when sieving particles < 100 μm and keeping the mesh free).
- Sample Dividers
Meaningful results can only be obtained if the sample represents the original material. Sample dividers produce representative part samples, thus ensuring reproducibility of the analysis.
- Ultrasonic baths and dryers
Suitable for thorough cleaning of test sieves and for quick, gentle drying of samples and sieves.
EASYSIEVE / CFR EVALUATION SOFTWARE
EasySieve, the software for particle size analyses, exceeds manual evaluation in many aspects. The software is able to automatically control the necessary measurement and weighing procedures – from the registration of the weight of the sieve up to the evaluation of the data. It is simple and convenient to use and is also available in an FDA 21 CFR Part 11-conform version.
APPLICATION EXAMPLES
RETSCH’s vibratory sieve shakers are ideally suited for separation, fractioning and particle size determination of cement clinker, chemicals, coffee, construction materials, fertilizers, fillers, flours, grains, metals powders, minerals, nuts, plastics, sand, seeds, soils and washing powder.
