Abstract
A system that provides for simultaneous thermal regulation of both components of a two-component system, while maintaining their separation prior to introduction into a conventional static mixer element, in order to assure that the mixed fluid, when dispensed, is at the optimal temperature and viscosity. The thermal capacity can be adjusted by altering the configuration to increase or decrease the thermal transfer area as required for each specific application.
Claims20
A mixer manifold assembly comprising:
- a manifold body having at least one process material conveying conduit and at least one catalyst material conveying conduit defined therein, and having at least one thermal conditioning fluid conduit defined therein, the conduits each having at least one inlet and at least one outlet;
- at least one thermal fluid fitting adapter communicating with the at least one thermal fluid conditioning fluid conduit defined in the manifold body, the thermal fluid fitting adapter positioned at a location distal to the inlets of the respective process material conveying conduit and the catalyst material conveying conduit;
- and
- at least one thermal sensor in thermal contact with the process material in the process material conveying conduit;
- wherein the thermal fluid outlet is coaxially disposed to at least one inlet associated with either the to the process material conveying conduit or the catalyst material conveying conduit.
