Kest ProFlow Mixer
The best mixer we ever built for critical pharma and biotechnology applications.
KEST PROFLOW MIXER
The Kest ProFlow Mixer line is a new generation of aseptic magnetic coupled mixers. With its state of the art mixing performance and ability to mix to the last drop, it is a perfect choice for critical pharma and biotech applications. The Kest ProFlow range covers mixing volumes up to 1200 liters and is designed for CIP/SIP applications. With our advanced Speed Sensor technology, you will have a reliable process control with real time monitoring. The Drive Unit is fan-less and totally enclosed in a hygienic cover - perfectly adapted to a clean room environment.
The ProFlow DC motor has an efficiency of >95% thanks to an advanced integrated control circuit. The Pro Flow will minimize energy consumption and save both money and the environment. The unique brushless DC motor eliminates the need for a frequency converter to control the motor speed. The Kest ProFlow range can be customised to perfectly fit your needs. We offer a wide range of materials and retrofit options, 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 Rapid Motion (RM) line for medium shear force generation. See separate data sheets on the other product lines in the Kest Mixer family or contact your reseller for more information. The Kest ProFlow Mixer is a magnetically coupled mixer containing 4 modules, Mixing head, Male Post, 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 are coupledthrough the wall of the tank plate with magnetic forces. Welding tools and a welding guideline is available for easy and safe installation of the tank plate. To select the appropriate model, use the selection guide in this datasheet. For complex mixing applications contact your reseller for consultation. The Power and Logic box contains the logic unit safely mounted in a cabinet. The box comes in sizes 20/70 and 70/120, the smaller units have the logic integrated in the drive unit.
PRODUCT KEY FEATURES
Perfect mixing result
After years of experience developing mixers this mixer will deliver a perfect mixing result over and over again.
ZERO particle shedding
The robust bearing combination of Zirconium and Sic and the fine-tuned geometry, ensures no particle generation.
Sustainable
The advanced motor boosts an impressive energy efficiency of >95%. While saving money, it also helps to reduce your carbon footprint significantly and due to low heat generation there is no need for compensating cooling - you can call it - Green Mixing.
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
Enhance your workplace
Due to the design of the drive unit it is extremely silent during operation enhancing the environment for the operators.
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.
Cleanroom optimized
The drive unit does not contain any fans that will interfere with your laminar air flow. It is totally capsuled in a smooth hygienic cover that that is easy to keep clean.
Minimal heat transfer
Thanks to the advanced drive unit, the energy is converted to rotation speed and a minimum result in heat. This prevents that heat is transferred into your application.

Minimize downtime
The low weight of the drive unit and our patented Kest-Lock connection ensures quick disconnection from the tank plate during maintenance.
