The PFT Powder Flow Tester delivers quick and easy analysis of powder flow behavior in industrial processing equipment. It is ideal for manufacturers who process powders daily and want to minimize or eliminate downtime and expense that can occur when hoppers discharge erratically or fail to discharge altogether.

The Brookfield Powder Flow Tester is the simple answer to industry needs:

• A competent lab technician can run tests and collect data within minutes, eliminating the need for a powder specialist.
• The automated analysis provided by the Powder Flow Pro software calculates various properties of the powder, including the critical dimensions for reliable powder flow out of the hoppers, feeders, bins and silos.
• The Wolfson Center for Bulk Solids Handling Technology at the University of Greenwich, England, has worked closely with Brookfield to design the Powder Flow Tester, thereby ensuring its suitability for practical industrial use.
• The competitive purchase price is a small fraction of comparable devices available in the powder flow market.

Analysis of the “Flow Function” leads to calculation of the critical outlet dimensions of feeders, hoppers, etc., through which the powder will flow.
Comparing the “Flow Function”, or these critical dimensions, allows powders to be benchmarked, ranked and compared against one another for flowability.
The dimensions can also be used to determine whether a particular powder will flow through an existing plant or process, or to determine what the geometry should be if purchasing new solids handling equipment.

Applications include but are not limited to R&D, Incoming Materials Inspection, New Product Formulation, Quality Control, Process Plant Design.

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Tests powders for formulation, characterization and QA/QC
• Quickly and easily develop product SOP
• Minimize or eliminate production downtime and expense
• Compact design - easily fits on a workbench
• Easy to use and intuitive Powder Flow Pro software included
• Full Flow Function Test in 25 minutes
• Bulk Density (Fill and Final)
• Time Consolidation Test with Full Flow Function data
• Wall Friction
• Flow Index
• Arching Dimensions
• Rat-hole Diameter
• Hopper Half Angle
• Gravity Chute Angle
• Compressibility (Carr) Index
• Compressibility (Hausner) Ratio
• Choice of faster Flow Function Tests for QA/QC
• Data Output to Excel
• Comprehensive report generation
  

Advanced Helipath Testing when it is used with a suitable AMETEK Brookfield Viscometer/Rheometer fitted with a unique T-bar type spindle, the HPQA will permit viscosity/consistency measurements in relative centipoise values for materials having characteristics similar to paste, putty, cream, gelatin, or wax. The helical test action also allows measurement of paints, dyes, lithographic inks, and many other thixotropic substances, demonstrating a viscosity drop as the material is sheared.

HPQA slowly lowers or raises the AMETEK Brookfield Viscometer/Rheometer so that its rotating T-bar spindle will describe a helical path through the test sample. The problem of channeling or separating is eliminated by constantly cutting into fresh material for meaningful viscosity/consistency measurements.

Quick Action Operations:

Motorized capabilities bring the HPQA to the next level. The control system with the integrated interface, joystick, and motor simplifies and expands laboratory and testing capabilities, making it the modern choice.

The HPQA features a variable-speed motor, allowing high-speed travel up with the integrated joystick to 40mm/s. Users can set up standard viscosity tests quickly and accurately with traditional spindles. Eliminating manual adjustment efforts, the touchscreen interface allows the user to create programmable height locations to perform repetitive testing quickly and efficiently. The one-touch Home button allows the stand to automatically drive to the top (Home) position for easy spindle cleanup and sample change.

Programmable height locations, one touch movements, DVPlus Integrations, and a user-friendly interface allow users to more efficiently and repeatably set up and execute tests.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

• Designed for viscosity/consistency measurement of materials that are sometimes difficult to measure, such as gels, pastes, creams, putty, gelatin, and other non-flowing substances
• Variable, high-speed travel up to 40 mm/s with joystick: Ideal for Quick Action operations and standard viscosity tests
• Touchscreen interface with physical joystick for easy programming and precise control
• Home and programmable test positions allow quick one-touch stand movements for easy cleaning and preparation for the next test
• Excellent choice for end-of-line quality tests to be sure product is consistent
• Simple to set up and clean
• Available with Magnetic Spindle Coupling Option, allowing spindles to be quickly attached and removed while preventing damage during frequent spindle changes
• Compatible with all AMETEK Brookfield Viscometers and DVNext Rheometers
• Integrates directly with DVPlus for seamless operation and automated movements.

Included:

• HPQA Drive Assembly and Lab Stand Extrusion
• Coupling
• Base
• Spindle Case
• Six T-bar Spindles (magnetic, threaded or none), please specify when ordering.
  

MAGNETIC SPINDLE COUPLING OPTION**

The HPQA is available to purchase with a Magnetic Spindle Coupling Option. This option allows spindles to be quickly attached and removed and may also help prevent damage from frequent spindle changes or multiple users. A special coupling adapter can allow the use of magnetic spindles.

**Note: The Magnetic Spindle Coupling Option must be purchased with all Viscometers/Rheometers with a magnetic spindle coupling.
