Blender Provides Low-Impact Mixing for Diverse Mixtures
The V-Cone blender (VCB)-10 provides gentle, consistent mixing for materials, ensuring even exposure and particle distribution. It features a 7.5 hp totally enclosed, fan-cooled (TEFC) motor that rotates a V-shaped vessel, which is useful for properly mixing friable ingredients, trace components, or materials with different densities. User safety is prioritized through the mixer’s safety rail assembly, which prevents unintended contact with the rotating parts. This setup includes a front gate with limit and safety interlock switches, as well as a fixed guard rail. A cycle timer, emergency stop button, and touchscreen all improve ease of use. This blender is useful in numerous industries, including coatings, food, and composites.

Dip Probe Measures a Wide Array of Ultraviolet Path Lengths
The Variprobe adjustable path-length dip probe provides accurate ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopy measurements for enhanced in situ dissolution analysis. With a single probe, users can select among four reproducible path lengths — 2, 5, 10, and 20 mm — to accommodate different concentrations without the need for multiple probes or interchangeable tips. This unit has been designed to be used with the manufacturer’s Opt-Diss 410 and Opt-Diss 405 in situ fiber optic UV system. The Variprobe product line includes probe tips and probe tip spacers, and all components in the product line are serialized for easier product management and quality assurance.

Alkaline Degreaser Cleans Versatile Surfaces
MARVELLA is a concentrated alkaline degreaser fit for unusual and complicated cleaning situations. Its robust solvency and water-softening properties make it ideal for tough oil and grease removal. The solution can be used in diverse applications, including in food and beverage plants, steam or mechanical cleaning devices, or engines. MARVELLA should be used in concentrations of 1–20% by volume with either cold or warm water, depending on soil loading, and surfaces should be thoroughly rinsed with water after cleaning. If desired, technical representatives are available to help determine dilution rates, contact times, and temperature requirements, based on the application.

Synthetic Fluids Portfolio Includes Three High-Performance Lubricants
The Synthetic-EF portfolio comprises three saturated synthetic polyol esters: the Synthetic-EF 5, 15, and 22. These lubricants meet the industry’s evolving environmental requirements without compromising quality or performance. The lubricants are fit for various applications; the Synthetic-EF 5 is biodegradable and engineered for demanding, low-temperature applications, while the Synthetic-EF 15 is designed for safety, with a high flash point and thermal and oxidation stability. The Synthetic-EF 22 is best for applications with a wide temperature range and boasts a high viscosity index and low acid number. The portfolio meets industry standards, including Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) biodegradability standards, and will soon be listed on the Lubricant Substance Classification List (LuSC) that complies with European Union (EU) Ecolabel standards.
