Impellers

The heart of the process design of agitators

Impeller Designs

In industrial process engineering, choosing the right agitator is crucial for the efficiency and quality of production processes. Whether homogenising, dispersing, suspending or heat transfer – each process places specific demands on the agitator used and its impellers.

Impellers have a significant influence on the flow behaviour, energy input and mixing quality within the fluid. They are therefore the central element in the design and optimisation of agitators in mixing technology. Precise coordination of the impellers with the respective process parameters is essential to ensure high process reliability, efficiency and product quality.

PRG's impeller designs are individually tailored to your specific requirements and adapted as necessary. This allows you to benefit from customised solutions based on state-of-the-art mixing technology and many years of experience in process engineering.

Put your trust in PRG – your partner for powerful, reliable and innovative agitators in industrial process engineering.

Very high local shear forces
Dispersion of solids
For low-viscosity to high-viscosity applications

Gentle product flow from top to bottom (axial)
Low shear possible, little product stress

Agitator close to the wall, good heat transfer from the tank wall into the product
For high-viscosity media
With and without wall and bottom scrapers
Special anchor shapes with additional product flow possible

Increase of the gas retention time in the product
Axial flow direction downwards
High pump volume flow with low product damage

Gentle product flow
For simple mixing tasks, keeping the product homogeneous
Adapts to the tank bottom to mix small residual quantities

Dipersion of gas bubbles
Radial flow direction
High power input
Enables high mass transfer rates

Very gentle axial flow – possible both upwards and downwards
Gentle mixing action for cell cultures

Axial direction of flow downwards
Installation position: from above
Good power input into the fluid with large tank volumes
Single-stage mixing system (near bottom)

Efficient power input into the fluid with large tank volumes
Mainly axial flow direction downwards
Multi-stage stirring system (2-5 stages)

Agitator close to the wall, good heat transfer from the container wall into the product
For high-viscous products
With and without wall and bottom scapers
