How to Select the Right Top Entry Mixer for Industrial Tanks

KEHENG provides engineering-based top entry mixer selection and customized tank mixing solutions        for chemical, petrochemical, wastewater, food, and industrial applications.

What is a Top Entry Mixer?

A top entry mixer is an industrial tank agitator installed on the top of a vessel to create efficient liquid circulation, blending, suspension and heat transfer. It is widely used in large storage tanks, reaction vessels and process equipment where reliable mixing performance is required.

Selecting a suitable top entry mixer requires comprehensive consideration of tank dimensions, liquid properties, mixing objectives, installation conditions and operating requirements.

Factors Affecting Top Entry Mixer Selection

1. Tank Information

  • Tank diameter

  • Tank height

  • Working volume

  • Tank structure

  • Installation position

Tank geometry determines the required circulation pattern and mixer configuration.

2. Liquid Properties

  • Density

  • Viscosity

  • Solid content

  • Temperature

Higher viscosity liquids usually require higher torque and specially designed impellers.

3. Mixing Purpose

  • Blending

  • Suspension

  • Heat transfer

  • Gas-liquid mixing

Different mixing objectives require different flow patterns and impeller designs.

4. Operating Conditions

  • Continuous operation

  • Explosion-proof requirements

  • Corrosive environment

  • Hygienic requirements

Top Entry Mixer Selection Process
