Introduction
Biological processes need care. In fermentation tanks, shear-sensitive organisms demand gentle handling. Excess agitation harms cell viability. But poor mixing leads to dead zones and low yield.
ProMixUSA offers side entry tank mixers designed to keep cultures alive and evenly distributed.
Balance Matters in Bioprocessing
Too much turbulence can kill cells. But too little motion causes clumping or oxygen depletion. Side entry mixers strike the balance between motion and gentleness.
Their angled impellers promote wide circulation with low energy input.
Maintain Temperature and Oxygen Control
Fermentation produces heat. You must remove that heat efficiently. Without mixing, hot spots form. This hurts microbe performance.
Side entry mixers maintain thermal uniformity. They also keep nutrients and gases evenly distributed. That improves cell growth and reaction consistency.
Low Shear, High Productivity
Top-entry mixers often create vortexes and high-shear zones. These damage yeast or bacteria. Side entry mixers operate gently. They reduce vertical shear forces and support long culture runs.
That means higher yield, better quality, and less stress on your process.
Easy Integration into Existing Tanks
Our mixers retrofit easily into most tanks. You don’t need major modifications. We help you select the right length, seal type, and impeller size.
You can also choose from standard alloys or high-performance materials for CIP environments.
Better Mixing with Lower Energy Use
Side entry mixers provide large-scale circulation with smaller motors. This keeps your energy costs down. It also helps meet regulatory limits on process heat and vibration.
ProMixUSA helps you match power to process volume for best results.
Designed for Cleanability
Clean-in-place systems rely on smooth surfaces and minimal dead zones. Our mixers feature hygienic seals and polished internals. They support sanitation protocols without disassembly.
This keeps your bioprocess safe, compliant, and efficient.
Final Thoughts
Fermentation requires precise control. ProMixUSA’s side entry mixers provide consistent, low-shear mixing for sensitive biological reactions. Upgrade your system today for higher yield and cleaner performance.
