Laboratory Homogenizers
PANDA® X LAB HOMOGENIZER
ATEX-compliant table-top unit combining high pressure performance with industry leading safety standards. The ideal solution for research and small-scale production needs.
Safety, versatility and performance even in hazardous environments
This ATEX-compliant table-top unit is engineered for safe and continuous operation at high pressure in environments where explosive atmospheres may be present. It is designed to meet the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU, ensuring it is proper for use in Zone 2 hazardous areas.
The Panda® X is designed with research flexibility in mind, allowing users to run tests with small sample volumes while ensuring smooth scalability to industrial homogenizers. This makes it an essential tool for optimized product formulation from early experimentation through to production scale‑up.
The compact design of Panda® X Lab homogenizer offers easy installation, use and maintenance and it is suitable for CIP (Cleaning In Place) and SIP (Sterilization In Place, only if performed in safe non-ATEX areas).
The trusted compact design, now with broader capabilities
True to the Panda® family, the Panda® X maintains the same compact footprint while supporting a wide variety of applications – from nanoparticles and cell disruption to food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic and chemical products. With its high-wear resistant material and liquid end design, it is also suitable for abrasive and viscous products.
Two models available: Panda® X 1000 and Panda® X 2000
