Powder Liquid Mixer: Series 620
The Series 620 is a high shear powder liquid mixer designed to deliver agglomerate‐free, efficient mixing for industries that demand precise dispersion of powders into liquids. As a liquid powder mixer and powder liquid mixer, the Series 620 overcomes common challenges such as clumping, floating and dusting. Unlike traditional mixers, this high shear powder liquid mixer drives the powder directly into the liquid stream rather than using a vacuum. This unique approach makes it an effective powder to liquid mixer for high‐viscosity products and varying temperature conditions, ensuring a consistent result every time.
How the powder to liquid mixer operates
The Series 620 employs a three‐stage process to achieve thorough mixing:
Stage 1 – High‐Velocity Recirculation
A self‐pumping design recirculates liquid from the process vessel at high speed through the workhead. This step prepares the liquid for rapid dispersion, setting the stage for a smooth integration of powder.
Stage 2 – Powder Introduction
Once the powder is loaded through a funnel, a valve opens to allow the powder to be drawn into the mixing chamber. In this stage the liquid powder mixer begins to work by incorporating the powder into the liquid stream quickly and effectively.
Stage 3 – High Shear Dispersion
The mixture is then forced through the high shear workhead. Here, intense mechanical and hydraulic forces break down any remaining agglomerates. The result is a uniform dispersion that exemplifies the performance of a powder and liquid mixer. This stage confirms the Series 620’s ability as a high shear powder liquid mixer to rapidly and thoroughly combine powders with liquids.

How It Works
- STAGE 1
The self-pumping mixer recirculates liquid from the process vessel through the workhead at a high velocity.
- STAGE 2
After the powder is added in the funnel, the valve under the funnel is opened and the materials are drawn into the mixing chamber and subjected to intense mixing in the chamber by the high-speed rotor.
- STAGE 3
The powder and liquid components are forced through the high shear work head and are instantly combined as they are subjected to intense mechanical and hydraulic shear. The resultant mix is pumped into a vessel.
