2.2.2 Homogenising unit
The function of the Homogenising Unit is to homogenise the product, i.e. to reduce the size of the
particles, through high pressure applied by a specific valve.
The homogenising valve represents the fulcrum of the process. Thanks to this high pressure
adjustable valve, the liquid product is transformed by means of the combination of the following
effects:
- turbulence
- local cavitation
- cutting stress
- high speed
This guarantees the homogeneous granulometric distribution of the micronised particles thanks to
high pressure in continuous dynamic conditions.
To create the pressure, it is necessary to apply a force "F" in order to partially close the passage of
the flow of liquid through the homogenizing valve. The valve is never completely closed, but there is
always a gap to allow flow: in the same conditions of flow, the greater the pressure, the smaller the
gap will be.
NOTE:
The type of valve installed on the machine described in this manual is specified in detail in
the technical information sheet attached to chapter 11.
