Product Description

MRC Impeller No. 17

is a 50 mm (1.97 in.) two-blade pitched paddle impeller designed to produce axial circulation with localized turbulence for liquid blending, powder distribution, and other low-to-moderate-viscosity mixing applications.

Applications

General Liquid Blending

Provides axial circulation and direct agitation for combining low-and-moderate-viscosity liquids during dilution, reagent preparation, pH adjustment, sample preparation, and routine laboratory mixing.

Powder and Additive Distribution

The broad angled blades can assist with drawing readily dispersible powders, salts, catalysts, fine particles, and formulation additives into the circulating liquid.

Reaction and Formulation Work

Suitable for small chemical-reaction batches, cleaning solutions, simple coatings, laboratory formulations, and quality-control samples that require general-purpose agitation.

Laboratory Mixing Studies

A practical option for comparative stirring trials, sample preparation, method development, and other work where a compact two-blade mixing element is required.

Features

• Two broad opposing blades that are slightly pitched to add axial pumping to the paddle-style design.
• Simple open construction supports general-purpose laboratory agitation.
• Shallow blade pitch produces axial circulation with localized turbulence near the impeller.
• Compact 50 mm (1.97 in.) diameter is suited to small vessels and benchtop mixing trials.
• Broad blade faces can assist with blending and distribution of readily dispersible ingredients.

FAQs

What type of impeller is the MRC Impeller No. 17?

It is a 50 mm (1.97 in.) two-blade pitched paddle impeller.

Can this impeller create a surface vortex?

Yes. Centered operation at high speed in an unbaffled vessel may create bulk rotation and a surface vortex. Lower speed, deeper immersion, off-center placement, shaft tilt, or vessel baffles may help reduce vortexing.

Warranty

The MRC Impeller No. 17 is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and service. For warranty assistance, replacement parts, product support, or application guidance, contact LabGear USA technical support. Warranty valid for 12 months.
