Mixtec (Pty.) Ltd.

Heavy Duty Oil and Petro-Chemical Side Entry Mixers

The 5600 Series caters specifically for the oil and petro-chemical storage industry. Utilising Mixtec's HA711 impeller, we have the capability of mixing tanks well over 60m in diameter.

Applications suiting the 5600 Series include: Bottom Sludge and Water, Homogeneity, Fuel Blending up to 5cPs and Oil Blending Above 5cPs.

Swivel Mount 5600 Mixers: Used in Bottom Sludge and Water (BS&W) applications the swivel angle feature enables the side entry mixer to be moved 30 degrees to the left and right so that the flow from the impeller can be directed over a greater arc across the tank floor. This variation in fluid flow produces a greater swept volume, thereby reducing the amount of settled material on the tank floor. This ensures that the heavy solids, corrosive salts and water that accumulate over time on the tank floor are maintained in permanent suspension.

5600 BDS: The Series 5600 belt drive can either be oil resistant anti-static wedge “V” belts (VB) or a tooth belt (TB) design for longer life.

5600 GD: The Mixtec Side Entry Gear Drive is available in seven sizes from 4.0 kW up to 90 kW with torque capacity up to 50000 Nm and is more efficient than the 5600 BDS.
