KEST MIXER, RM
For outstanding mixing performance in critical pharma and biotechnology applications.
KEST MIXER, RM
The Kest Mixer is a magnetic coupled mixer. With its aseptic design and excellent mixing performance it has become a popular choice for critical pharma and biotech applications. The Kest Mixer RM range is designed to incorporate more energy into the tank (eg., for dispersions) and covers mixing volumes up to 8000 litres. The Kest Mixer is designed for CIP/SIP applications.
Easy operator handling of the drive unit is secured by our patented Kest-Lock Connection. With our revolution counter you will be able to have control over your process. The Kest Mixer RM range can be customised to perfectly fit your needs. We can manufacture the parts that have media contact in specific materials, please contact your reseller for a quote.
Kest has developed several product lines for various mixing applications and clean room needs. The KM product line was developed for a large volume range and the KMS product line was developed for LAF applications. See separate data sheets on the other product lines in the Kest Mixer family or contact your reseller for more information.
The Kest Mixer is a magnetically coupled mixer containing 4 modules - Mixing head, Male Bearing, Tank plate and Drive Unit. To secure the integrity of the tank, the tank plate is welded into the tank, the mixing head and drive unit couple through magnetic forces. When installing the tank plate, make sure to use our welding tool and to follow the weldingguidelines. Select the appropriate model, download the Kest Mixer selection guide as a support. For complex mixing applications contact your reseller for consultation. Decide upon optional drive unit features like the Revolution counter, and you will find the order information, Ref. No., for each part in this data sheet.
PRODUCT KEY FEATURES
Perfect mixing result
After years of experience developing mixers this mixer will deliver a perfect mixing result over and over again.
Revolution counter
The mixer is equipped with a revolution counter that measures the speed of the mixer in order for you to control your process.
Full integrity of the tank
The magnetic coupling between the mixing head and drive unit ensures total integrity of the tank. All tank plates are FEM analyzed according to PED & ASME.
ZERO particle shedding
The robust bearing combination of Zirconium and Sic and the fine-tuned geometry, ensures no particle generation.
Mixing to the last drop
The wings fixed position close to the tank bottom and the possibility to run the mixer during emptying of the tank, ensures full product recovery.
Minimize downtime
The low weight of the drive unit and our patented Kest-Lock connection ensures quick disconnection from the tank plate during maintenance.
