Sterility and cleanability with new food mixer

Designed for food processing applications requiring exemplary standards in sterility and cleanability, Chemineer has launched an ASME-BPE-compliant Static Mixer.

Designed for food processing applications requiring exemplary standards in sterility and cleanability, Chemineer has launched an ASME-BPE-compliant Static Mixer, which benefits from electropolished as well as a fully passivated housing and elements. The new Kenics ASME-BPE Static Mixer utilises standard design helical mixing elements with food-grade stainless steel housing and a complete documentation package that includes material certificates. This latest in-line addition to the Chemineer range uses both radial mixing and flow division to achieve the desired mixture quality.

The result is near plug-flow characteristics, which eliminate radial gradients in temperature, velocity and material composition.

The Kenics ASME-BPE Static Mixer can handle both high and low viscosity fluids, with low pressure drop in just a short length of pipe.

For industrial duties, Kenics mixers are also available in a wide range of materials, including PTFE, PVC, FRP, and Hastelloy.

In addition, Chemineer also design and manufactures a wide range of proven, hygienic agitators.
