Bottom Side Entry Agitators for great performance
SKYR & SKYM Bottom Side Entry Agitators are highly suitable for maintaining and mixing products in medium and large volume vessels.
This models are installed in the bottom of the vessel, slanted to obtain the optimum mix ratio. The shaft length, diameter and propeller type are selected with this same purpose. All this, along with the mechanical sealing system in the shaft, allows these agitators to offer high performance and durability.

Application
The side entry agitators are used in process and storage tanks in the applications of the food-procesing industry.
The main application is the agitation of low viscosity products like wine, oil, milk, beer, alcohol, etc. in large volume tanks
Operation
These Bottom Side Entry Agitators are installed in a inclined position. The rotation of the propeller creates a flow that impales the product to the bottom of the tank and then raises up to the surface along the wall opposite to the agitator. The effect is promoted if the bottom is curved. The agitator is installed decentralized to enhance the circular flow. Thus a complete homogenization of the product is achieved.

Propeller Type

The design of the propeller have a decisive influence on the process engineering and mechanical properties.
Thanks to specific design of HighFlow propeller , it can be used when the tank volume is bigger thank 200 m3. Compared to other conventional propeller , it pumps more flow and delivers more energy to fluid with low power consumption. Bottom Side Entry Agitators
