FAQ's

  • What is an IBC mixer used for?

    An IBC mixer is used for mixing products directly inside Intermediate Bulk Containers (IBCs). It is ideal for liquid-to-liquid mixing, oil-to-oil blending, and dissolving free-flowing powders into liquids without transferring product to a separate vessel. 

  • What size IBC is this mixer designed for?

    The mixer is engineered for standard 1000-litre IBCs fitted with a 150mm screw cap and metal outer cage. 
     

  • What is the maximum product viscosity it can handle?

    The mixer is suitable for products up to 700 cP (mPas), covering a wide range of low- to medium-viscosity applications. 

  • Does the mixer have variable speed control?

    Yes. The mixer features variable speed control from 420 rpm to 1400 rpm, allowing optimisation of mixing performance for different products and formulations. 

  • Is the IBC mixer supplied ready to use?

    Yes. The unit is fully factory wired and tested, allowing quick installation and minimal commissioning time.
