Are There Any Limitations to Using Anchor Agitators?
While anchor agitators offer numerous advantages, there are some limitations to consider:
Not Suitable for Low Viscosity Fluids: These agitators are less effective in low viscosity environments where other types of stirrers may be more appropriate. Higher Initial Cost: Anchor agitators can be more expensive to install compared to simpler mixing devices. Maintenance: The large blades may require more maintenance, particularly in processes involving abrasive materials.
