TANK-MOUNT
Mixers & Dispersers

Schold mixing and dispersing equipment can be manufactured as tank-mounted models. Instead of having a leg or post to secure the dispersing head, all components are mounted directly on top of the process tank/vessel. Tank-mount mixers (or tank mixers) are ideal when the tank/vessel is stationary. For post-mounted designs, check out the VHS High-Speed Disperser and VLS Low-Speed Mixer.

  • Saves space in tight factories
  • Fewer mechanical parts mean less maintenance
  • Flange and bridge mount configurations available based on your application

Need the tank and/or additional process equipment? We can engineer and supply tanks along with supporting equipment, such as entry feed systems, inert gas blanketing, vacuum systems, and more to complete your process. Contact us to determine the optimal solution for your operation.

Description

Bridge-Mount Tank Mixer

Standard design for applications that do not require pressure or vacuum. Common in many industries and effective for a variety of applications.

Flange-Mount Tank Mixer

Ideal for applications when pressure or vacuum is required. The mixer is mounted on a stub with a heavy-duty flange and O-ring for an air-tight seal.

How Does Tank-Mount Mixing Work?

Tank-mount mixers are designed to integrate directly with the process tank or vessel, eliminating the need for a separate stand or post. All components of the mixer are mounted on top of the tank, allowing the mixing head to operate within the vessel itself. This configuration is ideal for operations where the tank remains stationary, offering efficient mixing and dispersing without taking up additional floor space. Depending on your needs, Schold offers flange-mount and bridge-mount configurations. Flange-mount mixers integrate into a dome-topped tank lid, suitable for pressure or vacuum conditions, while bridge-mount mixers work well in open-top, ambient environments.

Motor and Horsepower Options

Tank-Mount Mixers are available in standard (TEFC) or explosion-proof (XP) configurations, with 2, 3, or 5 HP options.

Shaft Design

The direct-coupled shaft design enables efficient torque transfer, ensuring optimal power delivery and mixing performance.

Custom Configurations

Various blade options are available, including high-shear, helical/ribbon, axial-flow, multi-shaft designs, and more to suit mixing requirements. Additionally, pre-mix equipment, entry feed systems, inert gas blanketing, vacuum systems, pumps, etc. can be included to complete your mixing process.

Is a Tank-Mount Mixer Right for Your Operation?

A tank-mount mixer is an excellent choice for operations with space constraints or where a stationary tank setup is required. These mixers are perfect for facilities that need to maximize floor space while minimizing maintenance. With fewer mechanical parts, tank-mount mixers offer a streamlined solution that reduces downtime and maintenance costs. Schold’s tank-mount mixers can be customized to your specific application, whether you need a particular blade configuration, such as multi-blade, dual shaft, or axial-flow, or additional equipment like entry feed systems, inert gas blanketing, or vacuum systems. Contact Schold to determine if a tank-mount mixer is the right fit for your operation and to explore our full range of custom-engineered solutions.
