Description

PBM-100 PLANETARY BALL MILL 100L 11KW SOIL GRINDER HEAVY METAL ANALYSIS

LABORATORY GRADE EQUIPMENT

Product Overview
The ATOMFAIR PBM-100 is a Planetary Ball Mill Soil Grinder designed for heavy metal analysis in soil, featuring PBM-100 11KW 100L 4-jar heavy metal analysis with a 326 mm jar holder inner diameter and Φ578 mm revolution diameter at a transmission ratio of 1:1.5. The sealing pressure of the grinding jars is adjustable via a graduated scale. The grinding jars rotate reversely around their own axes while revolving around the turntable axis, causing samples inside to collide and rub against each other at high speed to achieve sample crushing, grinding, mixing, and dispersion. Purpose-built for soil sample preparation ultrafine grinding, this machine delivers output particle sizes as fine as 0.1 μm from soil feed ≤10 mm. The system supports 48-hour continuous operation electric screener at full load, with an electric screener capable of holding seven layers of 200 mm diameter sieves across a 20–200 mesh (20 micron) screening range with digital display and 1400 rpm vibration frequency. Dry grinding, wet grinding, and vacuum grinding modes are all supported. Two or four grinding jars can operate simultaneously. This listing is priced for the main unit only; grinding jars and grinding balls are ordered separately. The PBM series spans from 0.2 L mini models to 200 L production units.

The PBM-100 requires a dedicated 220V AC grounded circuit and must not be operated with unsecured or improperly sealed grinding jars. Continuous operation beyond 48 hours may cause overheating; the unit should be placed on a stable, level surface to avoid imbalance during high-speed rotation.

  • Electrical Safety: Ensure the electrical supply is dedicated and grounded, with a circuit breaker rated for the 11KW motor load.
  • Jar Sealing: Gradually tighten the jar sealing screws using the graduated scale to achieve uniform pressure; overtightening may damage the jar threads.
  • Vibration Monitoring: Monitor the mill's vibration during startup; excessive vibration indicates unbalanced load or loose jar mounting.
  • Cooling and Ventilation: Provide at least 30 cm clearance around the motor housing for heat dissipation during prolonged operation.
  • Emergency Stop: Verify the emergency stop button is accessible and functional before each use.

Follow these steps to initialize the mill and perform a grinding run safely. Proper jar sealing and electrical checks must be completed before starting the motor.

Required Equipment: PBM-100 Main Unit, Grinding Jars (25L, appropriate material), Grinding Balls (40% jar volume), Electric Screener (included)

  1. Inspect the Unit
    Inspect the main unit for any visible damage or loose components before connecting power.
  2. Secure the Grinding Jars
    Place the grinding jars onto the jar holders and secure them using the graduated scale adjustment mechanism.
  3. Load Media and Sample
    Fill each jar with grinding balls to approximately 40% of its volume and add the sample material.
  4. Close and Seal Jars
    Close the jar lids and tighten the sealing screws evenly to the torque indicated on the graduated scale.
  5. Set Operating Parameters
    Set the desired revolution speed and continuous operation timer on the variable frequency controller panel.
  6. Start and Monitor Operation
    Press the start button and observe the mill for abnormal noise or vibration during the first minute of operation.
  7. Stop and Cool Down
    After grinding completes, stop the mill and allow the jars to cool before opening to prevent pressure release.

What is the minimum achievable particle size for soil samples in the PBM-100 and what operational parameters enable this performance?

The PBM-100 can grind soil samples from ≤10 mm feed to an output as fine as 0.1 μm. This is enabled by a planetary drive with jar rotation speed of 70–670 r/min and revolution of 35–335 r/min, a transmission ratio of 1:1.5, and adjustable jar sealing pressure via a graduated scale, combined with an 11KW motor supporting 48-hour continuous full-load operation.

Can the PBM-100 handle materials other than soil, and what are the feed size and jar material constraints to avoid cross-contamination?

Yes, the PBM-100 can grind other materials, but feed size must be ≤3 mm (compared to ≤10 mm for soil). To avoid cross-contamination in heavy metal analysis, jar and ball materials must be carefully selected; available options include WC-Co, Al₂O₃, Agate (natural SiO₂ for zero-metal analysis), YSZ, SS, PU, Ceramic, and Nylon, all ordered separately. Dry, wet, and vacuum grinding modes are supported.

What are the weight, dimensions, and electrical requirements for installing the PBM-100 main unit, and what consumables must be ordered separately?

The PBM-100 main unit weighs 1300 kg and measures 1750×1140×1330 mm. It requires an 11KW motor with variable frequency controller. The standard configuration includes the mill, an electric screener, and a complete set of round frame sieves (20–200 mesh) with base, but 4 pcs of 25 L grinding jars and grinding balls (at 40% of jar capacity) must be ordered separately in the appropriate material for the application.

The PBM-100 is a heavy-duty 100-liter planetary ball mill with integrated electric screener, designed for soil sample preparation in heavy metal analysis. Its 11 kW motor enables 48-hour continuous operation and sub-micron grinding, but requires separate purchase of jars and media as well as substantial laboratory infrastructure.

Positive

  • Integrated Grinding and Screening System: Includes a planetary ball mill and a seven-layer electric screener with sieves from 20 to 200 mesh, enabling sequential grinding and particle size analysis for heavy metal soil testing.
  • Ultrafine Output Down to 0.1 μm: Capable of reducing soil feed up to 10 mm to sub-micron particles (0.1 μm) via high-energy planetary impact, essential for heavy metal analysis preparation.

Trade-offs

  • Jars and Media Ordered Separately: Grinding jars (4×25 L) and media must be purchased separately, requiring additional material compatibility assessment to avoid cross-contamination during heavy metal analysis.
  • Large Footprint and Power Requirements: Weighing 1300 kg and requiring 11 kW, 220 VAC supply, the PBM-100 demands dedicated floor space and electrical infrastructure, limiting placement to well-equipped laboratories.
