ARROW MIXING PRODUCTS
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about ARROW MIXING PRODUCTS from 3G Electric.
What types of mixers does Arrow Mixing Products offer?
Arrow Mixing Products primarily offers air-powered propeller mixers, such as the Model A-12 laboratory mixer, which uses a 1/4-inch male NPT inlet and a 4-blade propeller. These mixers are designed for top-mounting via clamp or stand, making them suitable for laboratory and light industrial mixing tasks. The brand also provides electric-powered mixers in its broader catalog, though the focus is on air-driven units for environments requiring spark-free operation.
Are Arrow Mixing Products replacement shafts compatible with other brands?
Arrow Mixing Products replacement shafts, like the Model S-316-18 stainless steel stirrer shaft, are designed to fit Arrow mixers and may be compatible with other brands that use similar shaft diameters and mounting systems. The shaft has an 18-inch length and 3/8-inch diameter, which is a common size for laboratory mixers. However, compatibility should be verified by checking the shaft dimensions and chuck type against the existing equipment.
What materials are Arrow Mixing Products propellers made from?
Arrow Mixing Products propellers, such as the VPP-316-47, VPP-316-26, and VPP-316-52 models, are made from stainless steel. This material provides corrosion resistance and durability, making the propellers suitable for mixing chemicals, solvents, and other fluids in laboratory and industrial settings. The stainless steel construction also allows for easy cleaning and maintenance.
Can I use Arrow Mixing Products keyless chucks with other mixer brands?
Arrow Mixing Products keyless chucks, including models KLC50-375, KLC50-500, and NYLEX-375, are designed to fit Arrow mixers, specifically those compatible with Grainger part numbers like 806U20 and 806U24. These chucks allow for tool-free shaft changes. While they may fit other brands with similar shaft diameters, it is recommended to confirm the chuck's compatibility with the mixer's spindle size and thread type.
What is the typical application for Arrow Mixing Products laboratory mixers?
Arrow Mixing Products laboratory mixers, such as the Model A-12, are used for mixing small volumes of liquids, suspensions, or emulsions in research labs, quality control, and pilot plants. The air-powered design is advantageous in environments where electrical sparks could ignite flammable vapors. The clamp or stand mounting allows for flexible positioning over beakers, flasks, or small tanks.
Does Arrow Mixing Products provide complete mixer systems or just components?
Arrow Mixing Products supplies both complete mixer systems, like the air-powered laboratory mixer, and individual components such as replacement shafts, propellers, and chucks. This allows users to either purchase a new mixer or replace worn parts on existing units. The component approach supports maintenance and repair, reducing downtime for mixing equipment.
