1 Features

Wamix is a manufacturer of vacuum mixers used not only for mixing all kinds of plasters,

embedding media and silicones, but also designed for specialised dental procedures and

for vacuum-rinsing of prostheses.

When mixing silicones, make sure that the beaker is only filled to the max. height for

silicone. Otherwise, silicone could penetrate the interior of the unit itself.

Units have separate drives for vacuum generation and for the mixing mechanism. The

mixer in the Wamix-Classic and -Injector IV versions can be switched on and off at any

time by pressing a button, without interruption of vacuum.

Until changed, the current preset mixing time (up to 999 sec.) becomes the default for

subsequent use. An audible signal (approx. 5 sec.) indicates the end of the mixing

process, time display flashes.

The vacuum is guaranteed because the beaker on the Wamix-Classic and -Injector IV is

held to the flange by the vacuum. Mixers are supplied as wall units, but can be converted

for tabletop use at any time. (For accessories, see 8.5)

• compact vacuum stirrers with powerful, maintenance-free motors

5 Application

Wamix equipment is used for mixing all kinds of plasters, embedding media and silicones

under vacuum.

The vacuum can be as high as approx. 900 - 950 mbar.

This unit is also suitable for vacuum rinsing of models for special dental procedures. The

insulating layer between the model and the prosthesis cannot separate prematurely

because the model remains moister in the pressure-embedding unit than when water is

used.

Only use the device for this type of application.
