Key Features
- Corrosion-Proof Components: FRP shafts and bearings eliminate corrosion issues common with metal agitators
- Variety of Impellers: Turbine, propeller, paddle, or anchor blades in FRP allow customization for specific mixing tasks
- Variable Speed Drives: Matching motor and gearbox configurations for different power requirements
- Splash-Resistant Sealing: Special seals (PTFE or ceramic) protect the drive mechanism from corrosive fluids
Benefits
- Chemical Compatibility: No contamination or deterioration when handling acids, alkalis, or solvents
- Reduced Maintenance: FRP parts do not rust or pit, extending equipment life
- Energy Efficient: FRP impellers are lighter, reducing energy consumption
Applications
- Chemical Processing: Agitation in reactors, neutralization tanks, electroplating baths
