Rotary jet mixers Modern mixing efficiency Alfa Laval’s rotary jet mixers are based on a revolutionary patented technology that mixes liquids faster and more effectively than conventional methods. Equipped with two or four rotating nozzles, the Alfa Laval Rotary Jet Mixer is positioned below the surface of the liquid in the tank. Liquid is withdrawn from the tank outlet by a pump and circulated via an external loop to the rotary jet mixer. It is then injected into the liquid by powerful rotating jet nozzles, ensuring coverage of the entire tank, including hard-to-reach corners. The result...

Magnetic mixers Friction-free operation Alfa Laval’s magnetic mixers feature a patented design that delivers friction-free mixing. The impeller levitates on a powerful magnetic field at all times, whether at standstill or in motion, so there is no direct contact between bearing surfaces. That, in turn, means the impeller can run dry and as a result mix effecively t until all product is drained while ensuring minimal wear and maintenance. Wide range of speeds The levitation of the impeller and the eight-wing design make it possible to mix at various velocities. This flexibility enables the...

Why a technology shift pays off When tank cleaning machines are in place, it’s often hard to imagine making a switch. But there are com elling reasons to p upgrade traditional static spray balls to rotary jet heads. Although the initial investment cost of a rotary jet head is much higher than a static spray ball, the rotary jet head delivers substantial long-term savings that continue to accrue after realizing full return on investment, which often occurs within less than a year. Replacing static spray balls with rotary jet heads cuts cleaning costs and cleaning time. A brewery, for...
