MAP Mix Provectus
The revolutionary MAP Mix Provectus uses an entirely new mixing principle that gives high levels of mix accuracy even at low inlet pressures ( 2-10 bar ). One mixer suitable for both flow & buffer tank applications and with 30 – 1000L/min. range. Monitors & displays current gas flow, gas consumption over time and gas mix. Intuitive touch screen for set-up & operation. Can be fully integrated with new MAP Check 3.
The revolutionary MAP Mix Provectus uses an entirely new operating principle to advance the accuracy, operation and appearance of the gas mixer. Simple to use, highly reliable and rich in data, this mixer gives vital feedback on information such as current gas flow, total gas consumption and actual gas mix at any time.
Operation decisions are simple – do you need to mix two or three gasses? Everything else gets set up on the intuitive touch screen when the unit is powered up for the first time. Small in size, the MAP Mix Provectus delivers an outstanding flow of up to 1,500 l/min – and if that’s not enough, up to three mixers can be bridged to triple the capacity.
The MAP Mix Provectus replaces the MAP Mix 8000 + high capacity MAP Mix 9001 and when the MAP Mix Provectus is combined with the
MAP Check 3 they together supersede the TGC-2.
Benefits
- Mixes oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide
- Expand mixing capacity without having to change mixers – tandem an extremely small mixer with a large 1500L/min capacity
- Gives a high level of flexibility – the same mixer can be used on both buffer tank & flow packaging machines
- Avoids issues caused by low & fluctuating gas input pressures – the quality of gas mix is independent of input pressures
- Constant data logging of consumption, date, time and gas mix for accurate and better control of the packaging process and to cut expensive waste
- Connectivity & traceability of gas mix & consumption data via data ports
- Very low pressure drop over the mixer, making it suitable for working with nitrogen and oxygen generators
- USB, ethernet (LAN), RS232, Modbus TCP connections for data logging and control
Features
- Intuitive touch screen for easy set-up and operation
- Meets traceability requirements by storing accurate information about current gas flow consumption over time and gas mix
- Integrates fully with the MAP Check 3 gas analyser for ultimate effectiveness
- Helps reduce gas cos on flow packaging machines when used in combination with MAP Check 3
