SONIMIX 3030
Gas Mixer with the unique sonic nozzle technology
The SONIMIX 3030 is a 1-point dilution system designed for gas calibration and testing applications. Based on the principle of sonic nozzles with back pressure compensation, it ensures highly accurate and stable flow without the need for electronic regulation.
The unit is equipped with two manual 2/2 valves at the inlet and operates through a purely mechanical process, making it reliable and completely independent from ambient pressure or temperature variations.
This model has been designed for applications that request only 1 concentration. The advantage is being the use of high concentration cylinders (pure, in %, ppm or ppb) and dilute it up to 1/1000.
This method will increase the gas stability and save the consumption of the expensive gas.

Calibrator or gas mixer: which one should you choose based on your application?
The term “calibrator” is often used when the primary application is the calibration of a gas analyzer or sensor. The term “gas mixer” is more commonly used when the objective is to generate a specific gas mixture.
Generating a gas mixture can serve different purposes, such as supplying an instrument, simulating a process gas, or calibrating an analyzer or sensor. In many cases, a gas mixer and a calibrator are essentially the same device, with the terminology depending mainly on the intended application.
Is it suitable for audit or official regulatory inspection environments?
Yes, all systems can be linked to the national standards.
Does the system require periodic maintenance or frequent recalibration?
The Sonic Nozzle technology provides unmatched stability, resulting in minimal drift and a recommended service interval of two years.
Does the system reduce logistics and gas storage costs?
Yes, our gas mixer helps reduce the number of gas cylinders required. Using a single high-concentration gas cylinder, the gas mixer can generate multiple concentration levels by dilution with a carrier gas.
This reduces the number of cylinders needed, lowers costs, and simplifies the associated logistics and cylinder management.
Can the system operate in continuous mode (24/7)?
Some customer are running our system in their production (24/7), no problem.
