TURBINE STIRRER

Product Information

A turbine stirrer, also known as an agitator, is an essential piece of equipment that is used in a range of industrial and scientific processes. It is designed to mix, blend, disperse or stir fluids, providing consistent and efficient mixtures. This device averts sedimentation of solid particles, evenly distributes heat, improves reaction kinetics, and reduces the propensity for bacterial growth in stagnant regions. Variable shapes and sizes of turbine stirrers cater to specific mixing requirements.

Turbine stirrers utilise an axial flow, propelling liquids in a downward direction with a strong stirring effect. This promotes thorough mixing suitable for large-scale industrial processes as well as delicate laboratory work. These devices vary in styles including common types such as rectangular turbine, curved blade turbine, and the high-efficiency patented P4 type. Vaned disc and unshrouded turbines are available for situations where low-torque operation and high-shear conditions exist, respectively. Turbine stirrers can be categorised according to the flow pattern they produce, the power required for operation, and their mixing performance.

In the UK, turbine stirrers have a wide range of applications. They are extensively used in the chemical industry for processes such as blending, heat transfer, solid suspension, extraction, and dispersion. In the food industry, they contribute to critical steps such as blending ingredients, intensifying heat transfer, and maintaining suspension of particles. Also, in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries, turbine stirrers are essential for mixing ingredients, creating emulsions and suspension. They are also seen in the water treatment industry to enhance gas-liquid contact in the reaction tank. Furthermore, the components of these stirrers in the UK comply with the essential sanitary and safety standards required for different industries. Ultimately, turbine stirrers play a significant role in optimising industrial and scientific processes, aiding in productivity and efficiency.
