Flex-Mix Static Mixer type TPX Application The static TPX mixer is used for continuous mixing of different combinations of liquids, gasses, and particles. It is also well suited for ensuring an equal mixing temperature by for example direct steam injection. The static mixer can be used for both pre-and post-mixing. It can be used for mixing of dairy products such as cream and milk by standardisation, starter culture and milk, and fat and recombined milk. The TPX static mixer is characterised by low energy consumption. Capacity Up to 110,000 l/hour. Standard specification • All parts in touch with the product are made of acid proof stainless steel AISI 316 L / DIN1.4404. • Contains of four helical mixing elements. If more mixing elements are required, more mixers can be serial connected. • Seal material in EPDM or FPM (Viton), FDA quality • Sanitary design: normal or 3A for CIP cleaning • Inlet/outlet fittings corresponding to DS/ISO, DIN and Clamp 3A Operation The mixer is an in-line mixer and has no moving parts. The static mixing element in the mixer housing ensures that the liquids are separated, spread, rotated, and whirled so that they are properly mixed. This takes place with a minimum of pressure loss. The liquid flow is ensured by either a pump or by gravitation. The mixing elements are twisted 180o to the left and right alternately and are adjacent in 90o angles to each other. The mixing takes place by either laminar or turbulent flow. For high viscosity products the aim is laminar flow, whereas mixing of low viscosity products is preferred by turbulent flow. For low viscosity products and turbulent flow four mixing elements will be sufficient to ensure a homogeneous mixture.
