Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1. How does the D500 high shear homogenizer work?
The D500 uses a rotating rotor inside a stationary stator. The resulting mechanical shear helps disperse and homogenize the sample.

Q2. What is the speed range of the D500?
The operating range is 10,000–30,000 rpm, with six selectable speed levels.

Q3. What sample volumes can the D500 process?
The published capacity is 10–40,000 mL. The suitable volume for a specific application depends on the dispersing head configuration, sample viscosity and vessel conditions.

Q4. Can the D500 process viscous samples?
The published maximum viscosity is 10,000 mPa·s. Processing performance depends on the formulation, volume and operating conditions.

Q5. What materials come into contact with the sample?
The dispersing assembly uses 316L stainless steel and PTFE components.

Q6. Can the dispersing components be removed for cleaning?
Yes. The rotor–stator components are detachable, making them easier to access for cleaning and maintenance. Sterilization procedures should follow the instructions for the selected assembly.

Q7. Is the D500 an ultrasonic homogenizer?
No. The D500 is a mechanical high shear rotor–stator homogenizer. Ultrasonic homogenizers use acoustic energy and are a different equipment category.

Q8. What information should I provide to request a quotation?
Please specify your sample type, processing volume, approximate viscosity, required voltage and intended application so BIOSTELLAR can review the suitable configuration.
