FAQs

A: Yes. Because Static Mixers offer efficient mixing, that and high mixture quality reduces the consumption of dosed chemicals by eliminating the need to overdose to compensate for poor mixing. This means you use less chemicals and therefore save money.

A: Yes. Highly efficient mixing in Statiflo Static Mixers results in low energy consumption – low pressure drop in pipes or low head loss in channels. Statiflo Static Mixers will typically reduce power consumption by 90% when compared with dynamic mixers in stirred tanks.

A: Unlike dynamic mixers, Statiflo Static Mixers have no moving parts and are virtually maintenance free.

A: The energy required for mixing is efficiently extracted as pressure drop from the fluid flow through the elements. No electric motors or other external power inputs are required.

A: Not in most cases – Most mixing objectives can be achieved inline within the pipe or in the channel without the additional requirement for tanks. Short circuiting, commonly associated with tanks, is avoided.

A: Yes. No special skills are required other than normal engineering pipework skills.

A: No. Statiflo Static Mixers are both compact and efficient and, within reason, can be installed in the most restricted of spaces, including in bends in some cases.

A: Yes. Statiflo Static Mixers for pipe systems are totally enclosed and without the need for shaft seals necessary on stirred tanks. This virtually eliminates the risk of contamination both from and into the system. This feature is especially important when mixing in the food and pharmaceutical industries where any amount of contamination cannot be tolerated.

A: Yes. Statiflo Static Mixers are available in all standard pipe sizes and, in the case of open channel designs, are available in any size with no upper limit.

A: Yes. Statiflo Static Mixers are available in all commercially available materials of construction.
