Sharpe Mixers Featured in Chemical Engineering

Check out Joy LePree's article on mixing efficiency in Chemical Engineering magazine.  It features the Sharpe Mixers folding HYF-218 hydrofoil style impeller.  This impeller features a four-blade design that folds for easy installation through small openings, eliminating the need for personnel to enter the tank.  The blades open with centrifugal force and lock in place when fully open.

Our Hyflo impellers are among the most energy efficient in the industry, and when combined with premium efficient motors and higher efficiency gearboxes, can offer a sizeable cost savings - often saving thousands of dollars in operation costs and improving the payback period of the new capital equipment.

Need a Large Mixer Fast? Let Us Help!

One of the downsides of custom build equipment can be the lead time.  Traditionally, the equipment has to be sized specifically for the application, engineering has to be completed and reviewed, raw materials and components have to be procured, and then, finally, production can begin.  It can be a daunting schedule when you are in a hurry to be up and running.

That's about to change.

Introducing the Sharpe Mixers Quick N program.  We now stock parts on the shelf for 2 hp or 3 hp N-Series plate mounted mixers!  These include 2.38" dia. x 20' long shafts, which can be cut to length, and both 40" and 46" split-hub HYF-218 impellers.

These mixers can work in 5,000 and up to 20,000 gallon mixer applications (process dependent).

Best of all?  These mixers can be shipped from our facility in as little as 2-3 weeks.

Contact us for details.  Let's get your project up and running!
