IBC MIXERS AND AGITATORS

IBC agitators are an ideal solution for products that require mixing before use in order to achieve a uniform consistency. They are particularly effective for liquids prone to separation, ensuring efficient and even preparation for further use.

ADVANTAGES

  • the agitator is made of 316Ti stainless steel approved for food contact,
  • the design is equipped with forklift pockets for easy transport and handling,
  • available in versions with either electric or pneumatic drive,
  • optional inverter-based variable speed control in versions with an electric motor.
 

    USE

    • The mixers are designed for 1000 litres containers with DN 150 opening or bigger.
    • Used for mixing, homogenizing and dissolving.
    • ATEX explosion-proof version for zone 1 (option).

    MIXER DRIVE

    An angular (worm) gear with an electric motor is used as a standard. The motor parameters, i.e. torque, power supply and rpm are selected individually, depending on the type of fluids used.

    BODY (TRAVERSE)

    It is made of St3 steel, powder coated. A stainless steel version is possible. The body of the mixer is equipped with handles which enable manual pulling the mixer out of the tank. The mixer also has special handles to allow the use of a forklift for pulling out. It is also possible to make a handle for hanging the mixer on the winch.

    ELECTRIC CONTROL

    Allows the device to work safely. In accordance with the applicable standards. At the customer's request, a mixer can be made with smooth speed control using an an inverter.

    FOLDING MIXER

    Adapted to openings in tank. Minimum size of opening is DN 150. The mixer blades automatically unfold under the centrifugal force and the liquid resistance. The mixer stirrer is made of acid-resistant steel.

    In response to rapid technological development, we have expanded our mixer range with an additional feature — full device control via mobile devices.

    e - Mixer

    Key features:

    • ability to define automatic mixer start and stop times,
    • ability to set mixing sequences, for example 10 minutes of operation / 1 hour of standby,
    • remote configuration of mixing parameters, including device start and stop, via the plant LAN network from office-based PCs,
    • integration with higher-level visualisation and control systems such as SCADA,
    • configuration of mixing parameters using a smartphone via the built-in web server or a dedicated application,
    • integrated mini computer enabling the implementation of standard PC functions, such as running office applications or an internet browser.

    Additional features:

    • collection, visualisation and archiving of process data such as agitator speed, operating time and, optionally, medium temperature,
    • possibility to expand the agitator with additional input devices, such as temperature sensors, and output components, such as valves for supplying and discharging the mixed medium,
    • user login options with dedicated settings for specific user groups, such as maintenance staff, process engineers or team leaders,
    • extensive possibilities for adapting the agitator’s functions to the individual needs of the client,
    • the detailed scope of functionality is defined at the ordering stage.
