Top Entry Open Tank Mixers

The Mixtec 1000 series is a versatile, medium-duty range of Mixers and Agitators that consist of a Motor, Gearbox, and Baseplate and is used for open tank applications and require base-plate mounting.

The 1000 series is suitable for tanks that are too large to use direct drive (Series 250) mixers. The 1000 Series can be used for any open tank application with various mounting options available, including: Standard Flat Baseplate, Raised Baseplate (Often used in the water treatment industry) and Angle Riser (Mixer mounts at 10 Degrees)

The 1000 Series can be mounted in the tank center when used with tank baffles, off-centre without baffles, in vessels with conical, dished or flat bottoms. During the quotation stage Mixtec issues a General Arrangement Drawing which includes the Live Loads the Mixer will exert, this will allow you to design a support structure capable of handling the loads produced. Mounting Structures need to be rigid and robustly designed to prevent any flexing or twisting caused by the Mixer, weak structures can lead to premature gearbox failure.
