3. INTRODUCTION & PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The Magnetic Mixer disposable bag mixing system is based on a single-use mixing bag
containing a bottom mounted disposable magnetic impeller on a disposable bearing. The single-
use magnetic impeller includes a proprietary bearing assembly designed and composed to
control particulate generation. All the materials of the impeller/bearing assembly contacting the
fluid are non-metallic USP Class VI and ADCF.
The Magnetic Mixer disposable mixing system
consists of an interchangeable magnetic drive unit and proprietary magnetic impeller based
mixing bags fitted into retaining tanks on either a universal portable dolly (30L
– 500L) or a floor
mounted tank support (500L
– 2,000L). The magnetic Drive Motor is coupled with the mixing
bag through a proprietary interface. The activation of the motor induces rotation of the in-bag
impeller (0-300 RPM) resulting in the mixing action inside a hermetically sealed bag. The
coupling of the in-bag impeller with the Drive Motor is accomplished by magnetic forces only,
therefore no dynamic seals or shaft penetration inside the bag is required. The Drive Motor is
mounted on a portable cart that can be easily disconnected from the bag and reconnected to
another mixing bag thereby allowing mixing in multiple bags of various sizes with a single Drive
Motor.
The system hardware has 4 major components:
1. Drive motor with control box and rotational speed display
2. Stainless Steel Dolly/platform for supporting the tank and interfacing with the drive
3. Plastic/Steel retaining tank for use on a dolly/stand
4. Accessory kit for interfacing the drive with the tank and bag
The Magnetic Mixer reusable system can accommodate a variety of standard and custom-
designed disposable bags and tanks available from Pall
®
Lifesciences with a capacity range
from 30L to 2000L.
