FEATURES- Universal mixing impeller
for a wide viscosity range- Variable blade angles(standard versions with25° and 53°)

- Homogeneous suspension- Excellent axial pumping rates- High axial velocities can createa virtual draft tube by amultistage setup- Low shear mixing- Homogeneous energydissipation- Reliable suspending evenunder gassed conditions- High local shear rates- Combines strong radial andaxial flows- Very good gas dispersion- High flooding limit, stable
operation with respect topower consumption- Primary gas disperser withgas pipe or sparger ring
- Strong dispersion performanceeven at high gas flow rates- Almost no reduction of power
under gassing conditions- Self-induced gassing through- Homogeneous supension
hollow shaft- Homogeneous energy- Combined with PHASEJET ordistribution
VISCOPROP in high perfor- Gassing of non-Newtonian
mance gas-liquid reactors
fluids- Very high mass transfer- Complete conversion of the gas- Short mixing times for highviscous and non-Newtonian
fluids- Both pumping directions
possible- Ideal for mixing low to highviscous process stages- Ideal for multi-purpose plants- Highly flexible modular system- Complex mixing tasks- Blending and heat transfer in
non-Newtonian fluids- Application with draft tube
in the vessel- Efficient axial pumping- High circulation rates at low
power consumption
