3.5 MIXERS
Two mixers have been designed for use with the DuoFlow system: the MX-1 mixer and the higher capacity
Maximizer mixer. The mixers are shipped pre-assembled with their mixer barrel. The mixer barrel may be
removed or replaced increasing or decreasing the internal volume to provide the mixer capacity appropriate
to the flow rate. Refer to table 3.1 when selecting a mixer volume.
