4KW Hydraulic Lift High Shear Emulsifier Mixer for Xanthan Gum

When you\’re adding xanthan gum to a liquid stream, the last thing you want is fish eyes and agglomerates clogging your filters or ruining batch consistency. This electric hydraulic lifting high shear emulsifier mixer is built for those powder-into-liquid steps where ordinary agitators fall short. The hydraulic lift raises and lowers the mixing head, so you can position it over different vessels or move it around the plant on its casters.

We configure each unit around your process. Motor power ranges from 1.5 kW to 11 kW, and you can specify a VFD for variable speed control up to 3000 rpm. Voltage is set to your local supply—220V to 480V, single or three phase—confirmed at order. The mixing head combines high shear, dispersion, and emulsification, and it works well for incorporating powders like xanthan gum, stabilizers, or thickeners into water-based systems. Wetted parts are available in stainless steel and other materials to match your product. Ace Mixer manufactures these units to order, so you can specify the motor, controls, and contact parts.

Choosing the right batch high shear mixer means matching the equipment to your batch size and vessel dimensions. A 4 kW unit might handle 200–500 liters of low-viscosity product, but that changes quickly with viscosity. If you\’re processing creams or gels, you\’ll need more torque and a different head design. Tell us the product viscosity, solids content, and target batch time, and we\’ll recommend the motor and head combination. The right mixing head and materials depend on your specific product—viscosity, solids loading, and temperature all play a role. Also consider whether you need a mobile high shear mixer or a fixed installation—casters help when you\’re sharing one unit across multiple tanks, but check floor conditions and clearance.

These industrial high shear mixers are used in food and beverage plants for sauces, syrups, and stabilizer solutions; in cosmetics for emulsions and creams; in pharmaceutical compounding for ointments and suspensions; and in chemical processing for dispersion and emulsification. The same variable speed high shear mixer with VFD gives you flexibility across different products without changing equipment.

Common questions we hear: How do I know if I need a high shear mixer with VFD? If your product viscosity changes between batches, VFD lets you adjust speed without changing pulleys. What about stainless steel high shear mixer construction? We use 304 or 316L stainless steel for contact parts, depending on your hygiene requirements and chemical compatibility. Can this unit handle powder dispersion? Yes, the high shear head creates a vortex that draws powder into the liquid, but you\’ll need to feed powder at a controlled rate to avoid clogging. Do you offer explosion-proof motors? Not as standard, but we can discuss your classification needs.

To get a meaningful quote, send us your batch size, product viscosity and composition, target rpm, required motor power, and your local voltage/frequency/phase. We\’ll come back with a configuration that fits your line—not a generic catalog number.
