The Basic Mikro Air Jet Sieve for 8in Test Sieves is an accurate and reliable single-sieve system for 10 to 100g samples of dry powders from No. 4 to No. 635 (4.75mm to 20μm). Operation is clean and quiet. A rotating slotted nozzle supplies positive air pressure to gently fluidize the sample in a covered test sieve. Exiting air is drawn downward with an external vacuum system, creating a negative pressure to carry undersize particles to a collection canister. Air Jet sieving action is gentle, effective, and especially useful for fragile or low specific gravity materials. Test times and vacuum/pressure settings are controlled through the integrated computer, with capacitive touch screen controls and display. Basic or Advanced versions are offered, each with separate models configured for use with ISO 200mm and older style Air Jet Test Sieves, or with ASTM 8in (203mm) diameter Test Sieves.
The Basic Mikro Air Jet Sieve for 8in Test Sieves is suitable for specific micron size evaluation. It consists of the base unit with a clear acrylic sieve cover, slotted brass air nozzle, electronic controls and integrated computer and touch screen display. The 15-Watt bevel-gear motor has lifetime lubricated bearings. The cast aluminum instrument housing features a built-in pressure differential gauge and has a baked enamel finish. An integral electrical outlet provides a convenient connection for the vacuum system, which is purchased separately. Vacuum is monitored at the housing outlet and has a control valve for adjustment.
The Basic Mikro Air Jet Sieve for 8in Test Sieves is configured for ASTM E11 8in (203mm) diameter Test Sieves.
A vacuum system is required for operation and purchased separately. The Vacuum System is recommended for best performance over a wide range of materials, including very fine and conductive specimens. The Standard Vacuum System has a low-noise 1,000-Watt motor and low-profile epoxy-lined steel filter canister with 4gal (15L) capacity. Note that the Standard Vacuum System is not designed for conductive materials or materials with high fines content.
The Cyclone Collector, used in conjunction with the vacuum systems, assures greatest recovery of sub-micron fines.
