2-blade impeller VISCOPROP

for agitatorsaxial-flow

The impeller multitalent with a high mixing efficiency. Thanks to different blade angles (standard versions 25° and 53°) and number of blades, this impeller can be universally used for versatile mixing tasks: Including suspension, blending, heat transfer and dispersion, of low- to highly viscous applications. The EKATO VISCOPROP is a universal impeller that closes the gap between axial pumping systems for turbulent, low-viscosity regimes and positive displacement mixing systems for laminar, high-viscosity regimes. Consequently, it is also used in multi-purpose equipment with frequent product changes. The EKATO VISCOPROP is not a purely axial-pumping mixing system. The standard versions have blade angles of 25° and 53°. A higher blade angle results in an increasingly radial pumping component in additional to the axial component. The VISCOPROP version with the smaller blade angle (25°) is used preferentially for low-viscosity blending and suspending tasks. The version with the higher blade angle produces a higher local energy input and a higher shear rate in the vicinity of the impeller blades. This enables homogenization of products with higher viscosities or non-Newtonian flow behavior. Features Thanks to its advanced hydrofoil technology, the multitalent EKATO VISCOPROP is an impeller that can be universally used for multi-purpose tasks, offering: • Outstanding mixing efficiency for low and medium viscous media • Excellent flow velocities on the vessel bottom for the suspension of solids • High axial flow velocities on the vessel wall for better heat transfer • Single / multistage impeller arrangement • Two, three or four bladed impeller design
