The Mikro Air Jet Sieve is an accurate and reliable single-sieve system for 10–100g samples of dry powders from No.4 to 635 (4.75mm to 20μm). Operation is clean and quiet. A rotating slotted nozzle supplies positive air pressure to gently fluidize the sample in a covered test sieve. Exiting air is drawn downward with an external vacuum system, creating a negative pressure to carry undersize particles to a collection canister.
Air Jet sieving action is gentle, effective, and especially useful for fragile or low specific gravity materials. Vacuum pressure can be programmed in multiple units. Test times and vacuum/pressure settings are controlled through the integrated computer with capacitive touchscreen controls and display. USB ports are provided for external keyboard and mouse use. The unit has 20GB of internal storage.
Basic or advanced versions are offered, each with separate models configured for use with ISO 200mm and older style Air Jet Test Sieves, or with ASTM 8in test sieves. Contact us for parts to adapt either model to use alternate sieve sizes. All models include a polycarbonate sieve cover, plastic tapping hammer, and nylon cleaning brush.
The SSA-10 Sieve Seal Gasket is required for all sieves or replaces the original sealing gasket of Air Jet Sieves.
AJ-103 Basic Mikro Air Jet Sieve is suitable for specific micron size evaluation. It consists of the base unit with a clear acrylic sieve cover, slotted brass air nozzle, electronic controls, and integrated computer with touchscreen display. The 15 Watt bevel gear motor has lifetime lubricated bearings. The cast aluminum instrument housing features a built-in pressure differential gauge and has a baked enamel finish. An integral electrical outlet provides a convenient connection for the vacuum system, which is purchased separately. Vacuum is monitored at the housing outlet and has a control valve for adjustment.
AJ-103 accepts 200mm ISO test sieves or old style Air Jet test sieves. AJ-103B model is configured for ASTM E11 8in (203mm) test sieves.
AJ-105 Advanced Mikro Air Jet Sieve consists of the Basic Air Jet model with advanced menu-driven software. The software collects and calculates particle sizes from a number of test sieve screens then generates a distribution. The advanced model connects to compatible printers via USB, Wi-Fi, or CAT 5 cable and compatible balances via an RS-232 connection. Additional advanced model functionality includes comparative overlay of analyses, USB data backup, speed boost feature for deagglomeration of difficult samples, and data transfer to CSV file formatting for LIMS software. This model can be ordered directly or by purchasing a simple AJ-111 upgrade to unlock these features on an existing basic unit.
AJ-105 accepts 200mm ISO test sieves or older style Air Jet test sieves. AJ‑105B model is configured for ASTM E11 8in (203mm) test sieves. AJ-105 models or upgrades require an AJA-135 A&D Apollo Precision Balance, purchased separately. The balance has a capacity of 1,220g with a readability of 0.01g, and is supplied with a USB cable.
