Rapidex™

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Rapidex is a low shear agitator featuring marine type propeller blades designed for cavitation-free operation and intense agitation. It is available in diameters ranging from 110mm to 800mm and is suitable for sanitary applications due to its smooth shape and finish. Operating at low tip speeds, it consumes minimal power.
Applications and Industries: The Rapidex is utilized in various industries such as food, beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, chemical/coatings, and wastewater treatment. It is ideal for high viscosities up to 25,000 cps, mixing miscible liquids, dissolving non-agglomerating solids, preventing sedimentation, and enhancing heat transfer.
Engineering and Design: The agitator is engineered for long-term, trouble-free operation with components like the shaft, ball bearings, coupling, and motor designed for maximum load stability and minimal maintenance. It offers flexibility with four drive principles: direct motor power, variable frequency converter speed, gear drive motor, and belt drive.
Power Consumption: Power consumption is influenced by mix viscosity, specific gravity, impeller diameter, RPM, and power number. The impeller's design ensures high circulation with low energy use by drawing fluid away quickly without generating turbulence.
Customization and Support: Admix offers customized solutions based on specific viscosities, densities, ingredients, and batch sizes, ensuring optimal configuration. The shafts are built with high strength and precision to counteract wear and tear.
Technical Data: A table illustrates how tip speed affects power consumption, showing that lower tip speeds significantly reduce energy use while maintaining flow rate.
Contact Information: Admix, Inc. is located in Londonderry, NH, USA, with contact numbers and a European branch in Denmark.

Rapidex™-1

Highly Effective Propeller Agitator Rapidex delivers intense agitation & low power consumption The Rapidex is a low shear agitator with uniquely designed marine type propeller blades that ensure a cavitation-free operation while providing extremely intense agitation. Available from 110mm – 800mm diameters, the smooth shape and finish of the Rapidex impeller blade make it very suitable for sanitary applications. The Rapidex operates at a low tip speed and consumes very little power. Applications and Industries The Rapidex is used across many industries including food, beverage, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, chemical/coatings, and wastewater treatment. Ideal for high viscosities up to 25,000 cps, the Rapidex is perfect for mixing miscible liquids, dissolving of solids that are unlikely to agglomerate, as well as preventing sedimentation and improve heat transfer. Reliable Engineering The Rapidex is engineered for trouble-free agitating year after year. All components including the shaft, ball bearings, coupling and motor are designed to withstand maximum loads while delivering stability and minimal need for service. Your Mixing Technology Partner
