Tank Mixer for Product Blending

The Jensen Series 600 with its exclusive Pitch-Adjusted propeller — ensuring uniform product gravity, viscosity and temperature for accurate sampling and delivery.

The Jensen Series 600 for Tank Blending

The Jensen Mixer Series 600 with its exclusive Pitch-Adjusted propeller is the right tank mixer for blending applications. Blending includes the prevention of stratification in blended products, elimination of solidification and crusting at the product surface, heat transfer for uniform product temperature and blending of two miscible fluids.

Proper product blending ensures that the product leaving the tank has a uniform gravity, viscosity and temperature. This is crucial for ensuring that accurate sampling can be accomplished, since the tank cannot be emptied until an accurate sample has been obtained.

Blending Applications

Prevention of stratification in blended products
Elimination of solidification and crusting at the product surface
Heat transfer for uniform product temperature
Blending of two miscible fluids
Ensuring uniform gravity throughout the tank
Enabling accurate product sampling before delivery

Mixer Configurations

Single Mixer

Suitable for smaller tanks or lower viscosity products requiring basic blending.

Two Mixers

Provides improved coverage for medium-sized tanks with more demanding blending requirements.

3–5 Mixers

For large tanks requiring thorough blending across the full tank volume.

Installation & Flow Pattern

Optimal Flow Pattern

The most desirable flow pattern in blending operations is a slight horizontal "swirl" combined with considerable vertical turnover.

Mixer Angle

The mixer is installed at a slight angle with respect to the tank center line — varying from 10° in large tanks to 7° in small tanks.

Recommended Location

In most cases it is desirable to locate the mixer close to and clockwise from the fill line.

The Pitch-Adjusted Propeller Advantage

Tank mixer performance is dependent upon propeller design and efficiency. The exclusive Jensen propeller is Pitch-Adjusted — a highly efficient, three blade, marine type propeller precision set and permanently fixed at our factory to assure superior mixing performance in each individual application.
