Disperser & Homogenizer
Proven and precise technology for homogenizing
The IKA range of dispersers are used for volumes ranging from 0.5 to 50,000 ml (H2O) and come equipped with a digital display. These homogenizers offer a wide speed range up to 30,000 rpm that enables users to work at high circumferential speeds even with small rotor diameters. The high performance drive ensures immense speed stability. Due to their broad spectrum of dispersing tools, IKA dispersers are highly effective for a variety of uses.

The IKA T-series, globally renowned by the trade name ULTRA-TURRAX, has more than 70 years of history. The T-series range from the handheld T 10 basic to the flagship benchtop T 25 series and right to the floor-standing T 65 series.
The IKA homogenizers use the principle of the rotor-stator where the shaft comprises of two components, the internal rotor which rotates at very high speeds during the operation of the disperser surrounded by the stationary stator. This results in an extremely high shearing effect as the sample passes through the rotor-stator head and the product can be sheared to very small particle sizes (min: 1 micron).

BRUSHLESS MOTOR TECHNOLOGY
To meet the growing and ever-evolving demands of different industries, IKA has introduced a new technology for our flagship benchtop dispersers using the brushless motor technology. Some advantages of these include:
- Quieter operation to protect user hearing
- Suitable for use in cleanroom environments
- Improved motor lifetime
Some additional features offered by these models include:
- Timer function for unattended operation
- Counter function for method development in R&D
- USB interface for data logging and automation
Our high-end T 25 mini control and T 25 easy clean control also offer even more features:
- Patented temperature sensing feature to protect heat-sensitive samples
- RFID tool detection to ensure safe operation
- Increased interfaces for communication and automation
MINI DISPERSERS
Compact but powerful — the ideal dispersers for operating under tight space constraints with low-viscosity mediums. The mini dispersers now feature a larger illuminated display, timer/counter functions, and even offer the possibility to automate the homogenisation process.The T 25 mini control, in particular, features a complete suite of interfaces for automation and data logging, allowing compatible communication to a wide range of systems — making it the smartest disperser in its class.

DISPERSING TOOLS
IKA dispersing technology works by using the rotor-stator principle. The system consists of a rotor within a stationary stator. Due to the high circumferential speed, the medium to be processed is drawn axially into the dispersion head and then forced radially through the slots in the rotor-stator arrangement. The high speed and minimal gap between the rotor and stator produces extremely strong shear forces, resulting in better dispersion within a very short time frame.
A wide variety of rotor-stator configurations and seals are required to process different mediums. To adapt the device to specific needs, two dispersing tools are sometimes necessary for achieving coarse to fine particle size reduction. The quick-connect coupling facilitates easy exchange of dispersing tools.
