Wine tank rousers, agitators, mixers

Winegrowers Supplies - tank mixers (also known as rousers or agitators)

A tank mixer is an essential tool for professional winemaking; for sugar additions, blending, reducing CO₂ etc.

Except where stated, all models have 380 volt (3-phase) motors, although some motors can be re-wired to run from 230 volt 3-phase, or can be run via a simple 1-phase to 3-phase inverter. 3-phase mixer motors require the supply to have 5 wires: 3 phases + neutral + earth; not just 4 wires (3P + N) as some electricity supplies have.

The stainless steel shaft/propeller is withdrawn through the stainless steel pipe so that the pipe can be pushed through a Gr.37 Flap-valve (ZLK) and the collar tightened, the propeller/shaft is then pushed back into the tank and locked.

Some models are available with a fitting to go through a DN40 or DN50 ball-valve.

IND:

IND-0: 230 Volts (1-phase) or 380 Volts (3-phase), 0.37 kWatt, 1400 rpm, shaft 800 mm long / 15 mm diameter, 950 Euros
IND-V0: variable speed model (with frequency converter), 380 Volts (3-phase), 0.37 kWatt, 1695 Euros

IND-1: for tanks up to 10,000 litres, 380 Volts (3-phase), 0.55 kWatt, 1400 rpm, 1190 Euros
IND-V1: for tanks up to 10,000 litres, variable speed model (with frequency converter), 230 Volts (3-phase) or 380 Volts (3-phase), 0.55 kWatt, 1970 Euros

IND-V2: for tanks up to 15,000 litres, variable speed model (with frequency converter), 230 Volts (3-phase) or 380 Volts (3-phase), 0.75 kWatt, 2200 Euros

Available with interchangeable fittings: to go through a Gr.37 Flap-valve ('ZLK'), or a DN40 (or DN50) ball-valve; 180 Euros extra for each if required

On this mixer the stainless steel shaft is not pulled back through the motor. It is made of three parts:-
- a stainless steel fitting for a DN40 (or a DN50) ball-valve or a Gr.37 Flap-valve, shown in the middle of the photo,
- the shaft and propeller, right side in photo,
- and the motor, which is connected after the other parts have been installed.

The disadvantage of using it with DN40 ball-valves is that it has to be installed in an empty tank, whereas with Flap-valves it can be moved easily from tank to tank while the tanks are full.

Option: stainless steel 'leg', adjustable for height, for mounting on the motor, to support the weight, 155 Euros
