The circulation of the Massecuit in the pan during cooking plays a major role in the correct growth of the crystals and the exhaustion of the molasses. Top mounted mechanical circulator greatly improves cooking and improves the quality of the product. It allows a valuable gain in the purity of the molasses and allows to work with a closer load.

Hydro dynamically designed impeller ensures the best-fit calculations at lowest power consumption. Galaxy Industrial Equipments designed impeller has high Flow number with optimized Power number, which means it gives maximum circulation with lowest power consumption. It provides the option of achieving an acceptable heat transfer with temperature difference as low as 20°C, compare to at least 45-50°C in the absence of stirrer. The use of low-pressure steam reduces the plant’s steam demand.

Top mounted mechanical Agitator stirrer consisting of:

• An agitator carrying vanes or other propelling means
• Shaft connecting the impeller to the driving system. The shaft is supported on
• bearings and is guided by central bush.
• A driving system consisting of electric motor and gearbox.

The drive supporting arrangement is carefully designed to be rugged and is free of vibrations. The overall system is optimized for low cost and premium efficiency. The load/thrust of the shaft is carried by the bearings provided in an enclosed housing. Carefully selected and specially designed gland packing at the entry of shaft at the top of Pan ensures zero vacuum leakage.

Galaxy Industrial Equipments supplies Top Mounted agitator stirrer, Mechanical Circulator is the robust, trouble-free and cost optimized solution for increasing the efficiency of the Pan.
