Used Agitator equipment

Agitators
Agitators are essential in a variety of industrial processes to mix liquids, enhance chemical reactions, or increase heat transfer via heating or cooling. Special Projects International offers several different categories of mixing equipment including clamp-on agitators, top mount agitators, side mount agitators, aerators, agitator shafts, and agitator blades (propeller, impeller, turbine, and dispersion blades). We offer quality used machines from manufacturers such as Chemineer, INDCO, Lightnin, Nettco, Philadelphia Mixing Solutions, SPX Flow, and more. The different types of agitators we offer are listed and described below.

Clamp-On Agitators
Clamp-on agitators are often used in smaller mixing vessels but can be used in tanks or kettles (less than 6 ft in diameter). The clamp-on agitator is either an electric or pneumatic portable mixing machine that can be easily transferred to different mixing vessels for various small batch processes via clamping mechanism.

Top Mount Agitators
Top mount agitators have similar functionality to clamp-on agitators except they can be permanently mounted on a vessel for a more continuous process.

Side Mount Agitators
Side mount agitators are often used in mixing vessels greater than 1000 gallons. The higher the capacity of a given mixing vessel, the more economical it is to use a side mounted agitator.

Aerators
Aerators are often used to reduce the carbon dioxide produced in a process. Additionally, aerators are used in water treatment processes to oxidize soluble iron and manganese into insoluble precipitates for easy extraction.

Agitator Shafts
Special Projects International offers a variety of used agitator shafts to best suit your agitation needs.

Agitator Blades
Special Projects International offers several different blade styles for your agitator. The types of blades we typically have in stock are propeller, impeller, turbine, and dispersion blades.
Propeller style: Propeller blades taper towards the shaft to minimize centrifugal force and produce maximum axial flow.
Impeller style: Impeller blades are designed to allow the mixer to break up agglomeration and impart solids effectively. These blades are effective in both low and high viscosity processes and are most suitable for mixing or reacting two liquids.
Turbine style: Turbine blades create a turbulent movement of fluid using the combination of centrifugal and rotational motion.
Dispersion style: Dispersion blades convert input energy primarily to shear which helps to turn pigments to paints, break down solids into liquids, and more.
