New design for mini mill
The MC One, claimed to be the smallest fluid jet mill on the market, is now available in a new version complete with miniaturised feeder and glove box.
Jetpharma Group says the MC One in Glove Box, which incorporates the new nanofeeder, is not just an MC One in an adapted glove box but a tailor-made piece of equipment offering a specific solution for the requirements of a fluid jet mill. To protect the operator, all the glove boxes have to work in negative pressure, while the fluid jet mills work at a positive pressure of 12 bar. For this reason, multi-purpose isolators or glove boxes are not suitable, says Jetpharma, but the design concept of the MC One in Glove Box guarantees an OEL of less than 1µm/m3. The new model is said to offer a number of advanced technical features. The replacement of the HEPA filter can be carried out in complete safety with a "bag-in" system. The micronised product, as well as the introduced parts, have to come in through a pre-chamber which works at a -200 Pa, and is also equipped with HEPA filter, while the micronised product, as well the used spare parts, go out through an Alpha-Beta connection.
