Sample Splitters RT 6.5 - RT 75

RETSCH sample splitters are used for the simple dividing and reduction of bulk materials of all kinds. Sample Splitters are ideal for the on-site reduction of sample material. They are easy to use, easy to clean and do not need an electrical power supply.

Application Examples

cement clinker, chemicals, coffee, construction materials, fertilizers, fillers, flours, grains, metals powders, minerals, nuts, sand, seeds, soils, washing powder, ...

Product Advantages
  • usable in the laboratory and on-site
  • high-precision manual dividing process
  • simple and quick to clean
  • dividing process to DIN 51701, Part 4
  • inexpensive
  • available in 6 sizes

Function Principle
With sample splitters, one of the receptacles is used to pour a well mixed sample evenly into the dividing head. The material runs through the alternately arranged passages in the opposite direction into the two collecting receptacles under the dividing head outlets. With every operation the feed sample is halved. This can be repeated as many times as necessary until the required dividing quantity has been obtained.
