SECTION 4. OPERATIONAL GUIDELINES
Regardless of which type of generator probe is being used, the following
factors can affect processing efficiency:
Size and Type of Material Being Processed:
Solid particles, in any dimension, should be no more than half the
diameter of the rotor-stator generator probe for optimal processing.
This is extremely important when using the Omni Tip™ disposable
generator probes. Stainless steel generator probes with extended
blades and/or wide windows are available for processing large, solid
samples.
Processing Speed:
Omni Tip Homogenizing Kits include a handheld Omni TH
Homogenizer with motor speeds up to 35,000rpm. Operating at
the top speed enhances processing efficiency of the generator probes
(both plastic and stainless steel) supplied with the Omni Tip™ Kits.
Container Geometry and Size:
Round vessels encourage swirling. Fluted or cornered vessels
disrupt flow patterns, allowing for more effective mixing/processing.
Should further information or assistance be required for using Omni Tip™
Homogenizing Kits, please contact Omni International, Inc.
