ky Alfa Laval LeviMag® Mixers Introduction The Alfa Laval LeviMag® is an aseptic magnetic mixer that uses a patented levitating impeller and advanced design to mix down to the last drop and maximize product yield. Compact, energy-efﬁcient and easy to maintain, it provides dry-running capabilities and efﬁcient mixing at low speeds, which ensures gentle product treatment, as well as at high speeds for high-intensity mixing. This provides greater process ﬂexibility to handle a wide range of ﬂuid types and mixing duties. Its open design and low-speed rotation during cleaning contribute to effective residue removal and minimize contamination risks from wear particles. All this contributes to fast return on investment and maximum product yield in tanks ranging in size between 30 litres and 40,000 litres. It is supplied with Alfa Laval Q-doc, a comprehensive documentation package that provides full transparency of the entire supply chain. . Applications Alfa Laval LeviMag magnetic mixer offers effective mixing for multiple processes in the dairy, food, beverage, biotechnology, pharmaceutical and other industries that have demanding requirements for sterile or aseptic storage or processing. . . Beneﬁts • Maximum process efﬁciency, minimal product loss • Optimal ﬂow with higher efﬁciency and less energy consumption • Mixing down to the last drop for maximum yield due to low agitation and dry-running capability • Optimized Cleaning-in-Place (CIP) due to full drainability • Minimized downtime due to ease of maintenance . Available versions • Impeller with male/female bearing • Impeller complete, with drive unit • ATEX version (Cat. II -/2G Ex h IIC T4 -/Gb) . Drive unit versions • Painted (fan ventilated) • Clean room ﬁnish, Sealed Surface Conversion Treatment (smooth, closed, none fan ventilated) • Extended console for insulated tanks Standard design The Alfa Laval LeviMag consists of a detachable drive unit, levitating impeller unit with radial blades, seals, ceramic bearings and magnetic coupling, weld plate and connections. It is available in ﬁve sizes, with mixing speeds ranging from 10 rpm up to 800 rpm. Motor efﬁciency • IE4 (standard) • Premium (CUS for US) Working principle An impeller with radial blades installed inside the tank rotates due to the torque from the magnetic coupling. The rotation of the impeller mixes the ﬂuid inside the tank. The unique design of the Alfa Laval magnetic coupling ensures the levitation of the impeller at all times. This enables dry-running and complete drainability of process ﬂuids from the tank possible. This ensures highly efﬁcient mixing down to the last drop and, subsequently, maximum yield. It also enables the free ﬂow of CIP liquid and steam around all parts of the mixer, thereby ensuring thorough cleaning. Impeller levitation also eliminates axial wear. Safety class • No requirements (IE4, Premium) • Eex-de IIC T4 (on ATEX version) • Class I div.I, group D T4
