The rod agitator FTX easily masters substrates with a high dry matter content up to 15 % due to its remarkable thrust of 6.5 kN.
The FTX has a motor power of 15.0 kW. An energy-efficient IE4 motor with a very high efficiency of 93.3 % provides the required power while ensuring energy-saving operation.
In addition to energy efficiency, the design of the agitator was focused on maximum durability. The tube-in-tube technology makes the agitator extremely robust. Installation up to 8 m below the filling level can be realized.
The long-axis agitator is available in four lengths of 4.0/ 5.0 / 5.5 and 6.0 meters. This means that the FTX can be used for almost any container shape. The vertical inclination adjustment of + 5° / - 30° by means of a hydraulic cylinder also leaves nothing to be desired in terms of flexibility in use.
SUMA relies on the proven 3-blade high efficiency propeller XT 1200, which has already proven its strengths on other SUMA agitators. With a speed of 135 rpm the FTX is one of the slow running mixers in SUMA's wide range of products.
