Sepor has a complete line of pilot plant size and small commercial size paddle agitators for slurry and liquid mixing applications for the mineral, chemical, environmental and other industries. Generally, paddle agitators are utilized where gentle mixing or storage of liquids, or slow settling slurries is required.

This type of agitator also has application where varying level tanks are involved, due to the fact that the paddle design provides homogeneous agitation to the lowest tank level. It further assures maximum solids removal from the tank in batch operations. Propeller type agitators normally have the propellers positioned off the tank bottom and do not agitate at the lower levels.

Applications include storage tanks for clay, lime, slime concentrates, etc., where minimum power input is required; precipitation or crystallization where process requires minimum degradation and holding tanks for pilot plant processes.
