Product information "IKA S 25 KD - 18 G Dispersing Tool, Ø 18 mm, Ball Bearings, for T 25, 0020002971"
The IKA S 25 KD - 18 G has ball bearings, whilst the S 25 N - 18 G, which is the same size, has a PTFE split-ring bearing. The shaft runs in the ball bearing with a PTFE seal and an FFKM O-ring, which allows the tool to operate under a vacuum of up to 100 mbar. The stator, rotor and gap (18 mm, 12.7 mm, 0.3 mm) correspond to those of the plain bearing model.
Vacuum, temperature and media
The working range is 10 millilitres to 1.5 l, with an immersion depth of 40 to 165 millimetres and an installation length of 194 millimetres. Speeds of up to 25,000 rpm are permitted, corresponding to a circumferential speed of 16.6 metres per second. The maximum operating temperature is 150 degrees Celsius, the pH range is 2 to 13, and solvents are permitted. IKA specifies the final fineness as 10 to 50 micrometres for suspensions and 1 to 10 micrometres for emulsions.
Materials and Sterilisation
Materials in contact with the product are AISI 316L, PTFE and FFKM. The unit is FDA-compliant. It may be sterilised using all methods except hot air. It weighs 336 grams.
Drives
Suitable drives are the T 25 digital, T 25 easy clean digital, T 25 easy clean control and T 25 mini control.
Typical applications
- Dispersing and emulsifying in volumes from 10 ml to 1.5 l
- Working under vacuum down to 100 mbar
- Solutions containing solvents in the pH range 2 to 13

Same size, different version
With a PTFE split ring bearing instead of a ball bearing, the same size is available as the S 25 N - 18 G. As an ST version with a rotor diameter of 13.4 millimetres and a narrower gap of 0.25 millimetres, the S 25 KD - 18 G ST is available. The 25-millimetre version with ball bearings is the S 25 KD - 25 G.
