How we engineer the solution
From Process Data to Production Equipment
1. Define the Material
Characterize physical properties and process behavior.
2. Select the Mixing Action
Choose the appropriate agitator, vessel and energy input.
3. Validate the Process
Use calculations, experience and testing where needed.
4. Integrate the System
Controls, feeding, discharge, utilities and documentation.
Frequently asked questions
Engineering FAQ
Is every pressure-rated mixer ASME stamped?
No. Code requirements depend on jurisdiction, pressure, volume, fluid and customer specification. When ASME stamping is required, the system is engineered accordingly.
Can a pressure mixer also operate under vacuum?
Yes, when the vessel and connected components are designed for the full combined operating envelope.
Who defines the relief system?
The final protection philosophy is developed from the process hazards, governing code and customer or site requirements.
