This Bartels & Lüders 6500 Ltr is a mixer and blender — also referred to as a mixing vessel or blending tank — used for stirring, blending, and processing liquid or semi-liquid products under controlled temperature and pressure conditions. Bartels & Lüders is a German manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for producing industrial process vessels and mixing equipment, serving food, dairy, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries.
This is a closed stirring vessel with a working capacity of 6,500 litres, featuring a cylindrical body with a dished bottom and dished top, giving it the robust geometry suited to pressure and temperature process applications. The vessel measures 2,000 mm in diameter and 2,200 mm in height, with a total installed height of 3.1 metres and a floor footprint of 2.6 × 2.6 metres. Access for inspection or cleaning is provided by a 500 mm diameter manhole, and the top of the vessel is fitted with eleven connections for inlets, sensors, or ancillary pipework. The outlet has a diameter of 65 mm.
The vessel is constructed entirely in stainless steel and is equipped with a jacket, allowing for heating or cooling of the contents via a secondary medium. The internal working pressure is rated at 1 bar, while the jacket is rated to a higher working pressure of 4 bar. The maximum operating temperature is 150 °C, making this unit suitable for thermally demanding processes.
Mixing is performed by a paddle stirrer driven by a 2.5 kW electric motor rated for 220/380 volt supply. The mixing shaft operates across a variable speed range of 8.7 to 43 RPM, allowing the agitation intensity to be matched to the product and process requirements.
The vessel dates from 1963, is offered in used condition, and is located in Barneveld, Netherlands.
