SLES, a widely used surfactant renowned for its foaming and cleansing properties, is a crucial ingredient in cosmetics and common household products such as soaps, detergents, shampoos and liquid body gels. Typically, SLES is purchased at a high viscosity concentration of 70%. However, to seamlessly integrate it into your process line, it needs to be diluted down to approximately 27%. Buying SLES at a 27% concentration can be a significant financial investment for companies. And manually mixing the 70% concentrate is time consuming, ineffective and inaccurate, often leading to affected end-product integrity.

With Tapflo UK’s SLES Mixing & Dilution Pump System, manufacturers gain complete control over the dilution process, ensuring a homogenous and stable SLES solution every time.

Our SLES Mixing & Dilution Pump System incorporates top-of-the-line components to ensure optimal performance and reliability:

Pumps:

  • Progressive Cavity Pump: perfect for feeding the highly viscous 70% SLES solution without compromising product integrity
  • Centrifugal Pump: ideal for mixing SLES with water and pumping the solution, generating internal turbulence for effective mixing during transfer

Control & Automation:

  • Control unit including PLC with touch screen for seamless operation
  • Pressure and temperature transmitters
  • Frequency inverters
  • Flow meters for precise monitoring and control
  • Valves with a dedicated control system for efficient regulation

Materials:

  • Piping: AISI 316 Stainless Steel for durability and resistance to corrosion
  • Frame: AISI 304 Stainless Steel for robust construction

  • Flow rate (SLES solution): up to 30m³/hr
  • Discharge pressure: up to 6 Bar
  • Concentration of final SLES solution: 0 – 27%
  • Dimensions of a 5m³/hr flow rate unit: 1500 x 910 x 2000

Features:

  • Continuous or batch supply of SLES solution at any given time
  • Immediate start of the mixing process for enhanced efficiency
  • Constant tracing and recording of operation parameters for accurate monitoring
  • Small in size, lightweight and meticulously crafted design for easy integration into your existing setup
  • Local or remote control over the system for convenience and flexibility
  • Possible extensions for dosing additional ingredients and direct feeding of 70% SLES solution from a road tanker

Benefits:

  • Independence from deliveries of readily diluted SLES, ensuring flexibility and continuity of production
  • Highest quality of the on-site prepared SLES solution, meeting your specific requirements
  • Significant reduction in costs associated with SLES purchase, transportation and storage
  • Additional savings on warehouse space for resource optimisation. Storing 27% SLES takes up valuable warehouse space versus minimal floor space occupation with the compact SLES Mixing & Dilution Pump System)
  • Simple and user-friendly control system for ease of operation
