Dual-Shaft Mixers from Ross, Charles & Son are suitable for mixing 50-, 100-, and 200-gallon batches.

Dual-Shaft Mixers from Ross, Charles & Son are suitable for mixing 50-, 100-, and 200-gallon batches. The Models CDA-50, CDA-100, and CDA-200 are equipped with two independently driven, variable-speed agitators: a high-speed disperser and a two-wing anchor. The agitators work in combination to provide adjustable shear and efficient turnover of low- to high-viscosity materials including pastes, gels, suspensions, slurries, and fine dispersions up to several hundred thousand centipoise.

The CDA models come standard with an air/oil hydraulic lift, vacuum capability, jacketed mix vessel, stainless steel wetted parts, and inverter-duty motors. The mixers also include options for rotor/stator assembly in lieu of the disperser, sidewall and bottom scrapers on the anchor agitator, thermoprobe, spray balls, pneumatic discharge valve, and pre-wired controls.
