Low energy agitators
March 1st 2008 Alfa Laval's
new range
of energy
saving tank
agitators has been
designed to provide
gentle product
treatment and low
energy usage in a wide range of
mixing and blending duties to
ensure product homogeneity,
maintain suspension and aid
fermentation and heat transfer.
Modular in design, the agitators
can be customised for specific
duties and either top-mounted,
bottom mounted or side mounted.
An assortment of propeller blades
keeps product moving to maintain
uniform temperature, thickness and
consistency. Care has been taken
to prevent product shear, to reduce
energy usage and to ensure rapid
clean-up during maintenance or
cleaning stops. The design also
ensures maximum pumping
efficiency for the lowest possible
energy input, thanks to the airfoil
blades which enable slower
rotation speeds to be used without
any loss of pumping power. More articles from Alfa Laval Limited: |
