About this machine

This Alfa mixer and blender — also commonly referred to as a mixing vessel or stirring vessel — is a closed, paddle-agitated tank designed for blending, homogenising, or processing liquid and semi-liquid materials in industrial or food-grade environments. Alfa produces mixing and processing equipment built to withstand demanding hygienic and chemical-process applications across a range of industries.

Dating from 1982 and located in Barneveld, Netherlands, this used unit carries internal reference number PH 139576 and is designated type TV. It is constructed from two grades of stainless steel: 1.4301 (AISI 304) for general structural components and the more corrosion-resistant 1.4571 (AISI 316Ti) where enhanced chemical resistance is required, making it suitable for a broad range of process media.

The vessel has a working capacity of 400 litres and measures 1,000 mm in diameter by 1,200 mm in height. The bottom is conical and the top side is dished, a configuration that promotes complete drainage and efficient mixing while minimising dead zones. The vessel is fully enclosed and fitted with a cover. Access for inspection, cleaning, or product loading is provided by a 420 mm diameter manhole on the top. Three top connections of 50 mm diameter serve for additional inlets, instruments, or venting, and a single 80 mm diameter outlet handles discharge.

Agitation is provided by a paddle stirrer driven by a 0.55 kW motor rated at 220/380 V and 1,380 rpm, with the mixing shaft turning at 102 rpm — a moderate, controlled speed appropriate for gentle blending or thorough homogenisation without excessive shear. The vessel stands on legs, giving a floor footprint of 1.3 × 1.2 m and a total installed height of 1.8 m, making it compact enough for integration into existing process lines or standalone use in limited floor space.
