The agitator is designed for dry powders, granules, and other solid materials. It is not intended for liquids or high-moisture pastes. Material compatibility depends on the agitator's construction material (e.g., stainless steel for corrosive or food contact) and the operating temperature and pressure ranges.
Selection is based on the blender's working volume (100–10000 L), agitator diameter (300–2000 mm), and shaft diameter (50–300 mm). These must match the blender shell and drive system. Also consider motor power (2.2–75 kW) and ribbon pitch (100–500 mm) to achieve the desired mixing action. Always confirm with the manufacturer for your specific application.
Regular inspection of the shaft, ribbons, and welds for wear or fatigue is recommended. Check for unusual vibrations or noise, which may indicate imbalance or bearing issues. Ensure that the agitator is properly aligned and that seals are intact, especially if operating above 80°C or under pressure. Follow the manufacturer's maintenance schedule.
Yes, if constructed from stainless steel grade 316L (per ASTM A240) and with appropriate surface roughness (0.4–1.6 μm Ra) for sanitary requirements. However, compliance with specific food or pharmaceutical standards must be verified with the supplier, as the directory does not certify products.
