The mixing process using the UNGUATOR
®
e/s
The UNGUATOR ® Mixing System is removed from the bayonet holder by twisting the
UNGUATOR ® MB shaft counterclockwise and then pulling it out in downward direction.
3.3 General Notes on Operation
The UNGUATOR
®
e/s is to be operated as described in chapter 2:
1. Preparing the UNGUATOR
®
Mixing System
2. Weighing in the formulation constituents
3. Preparing the mixing process – air diminuation
4. The mixing process
5. After the mixing process is complete
For paste preparations the mixing process should be started using the default speed
setting, viz. step “5”. The speed should then be increased after a couple of strokes.
The minimum quantity of strokes should not be less than 50 at maximum speed of the
mixing motor to ensure an optimal mixing result. Keep in mind that the required mixing
time will increase with the size pressing the “Start/Stop” button. The display will then
show the mixing time up to this point stage. Air could then be reduced after a large
volume of powder has been added, for example. The device will reboot when the
“Start/Stop” button is pressed again.
The operation mode “HAND” should only be selected for UNGUATOR
®
Jars in sizes
15 to 100 ml. UNGUATOR
®
Jars from 200 to 500 ml should either be guided using
both hands or, even better, guided in operation mode “AUTO”.
A thermo safety element will switch off the mixing function of the UNGUATOR
®
e/s at
signs of excessive stress, e.g. due to the repeated preparation of ointments over a
short period of time and in large UNGUATOR
®
Jars. Should this occur, we recommend
switching off the UNGUATOR ® e/s using the power switch or pulling the power plug.
Wait 30 minutes before switching the machine back on.
