BioMix-S Slow-Speed Mixer

Slow-speed submersible mixer for the homogenisation of closed sludge silos (> 300 m³).


Mélangeur immergé BIOMIX-S BIOTRADE pour l'homogénéisation des silos à boues fermés.

The BioMix-S is a slow-speed submersible mixer, specially designed by BIOTRADE to homogenise sludge in closed silos with volumes greater than 300 m³.

Unlike conventional systems, it rests at the bottom of the silo and remains stable under its own weight, ensuring optimal stability.

Its 304L stainless steel propeller and low-speed motor, with an output speed of 100 rpm, create a gentle but powerful upward flow, ensuring complete sludge homogenisation without the risk of sedimentation.

The BioMix-S is specially designed for sludge homogenisation in closed silos with volumes greater than 300 m³. BIOTRADE offers a complete range of power ratings to meet all requirements:

  • Available power: 2.2 kW to 15 kW, 4 models.
  • Target applications:
    • Municipal or industrial sludge silos,
    • Storage basins requiring constant homogenisation,

Treatment units where sedimentation must be prevented.

  • Submersible motor:
    • Power: 2.2 kW to 15 kW, 4 models available.
    • Motor speed: 1,400 to 1,450 rpm, reduced to 100 rpm at the output.
    • Class: insulation class B, 155°C, IP68, fully watertight, IE1.
    • Service factor: 2 to 4, depending on the model.
    • Thermal sensor: included on all models.
  • Propeller:
    • Material: 304L stainless steel, optimised for slow and efficient sludge mixing.
  • Frame and feet:
    • Painted steel, corrosion-resistant, with stabilising feet for direct installation at the bottom of the silo.
  • Power supply:
    • Voltage: 400 V three-phase.
    • Cable: standard adapted length, 10 m.

  • Uniform homogenisation: slow-speed rotation, 100 rpm, providing gentle yet effective mixing and preventing sedimentation.
  • Stable positioning: remains fixed at the bottom of the silo thanks to its weight and stabilising feet.
  • Suitable for closed silos: designed for inspection hatches ≥ 80 cm, ideal for municipal or industrial sludge silos.
  • Robust design: IP68 motor and stainless steel propeller for a long service life.
  • Quick installation: direct placement at the bottom of the silo.
  • Frequency inverter: adjusts the rotation speed according to the silo requirements.
  • Additional electrical cable: custom lengths over 10 m.

Can it be installed in an existing closed silo?

Yes, the BioMix-S is specially designed for closed silos with an inspection hatch of at least 80 cm, without requiring structural modifications.

What is the manufacturing lead time?

The manufacturing lead time is 12 weeks from order approval.

Should the BioMix-S be installed with a frequency inverter?

Yes, the frequency inverter is mandatory. It allows the rotation speed to be adjusted in order to optimise mixing according to the sludge viscosity.
