EnSaLine™ bottom mounted agitators are fit-for-purpose in food, dairy, beverage, pharmaceutical, and home and personal care industries. EnSaLine agitators comply with the strictest hygienic requirements. EnSaLine agitators are 3A certified. All non-metallic parts are FDA-compliant. Cleaning in place can be carried out while the agitator remains in operation. EnSaline bottom mounted agitators are available in diameters from ø250 to 1900 mm.
How do EnSaline bottom mounted agitators work?
Engineered for efficiency
EnSaLine bottom mounted agitators redefine mixer performance. Power from the motor – direct or via gearbox – drives the shaft, rotating impellers for optimal mixing and low energy consumption.
Superior mixing and blending
The unique EnSaFoil two or three blade impellers generate strong axial flow with minimal shear, ensuring uniform mixing and blending throughout the tank. The high mixing efficiency cuts energy consumption by up to 80% and limits heat transfer to the product, lowering cooling requirements.
Easy and safe maintenance
EnSaLine bottom mounted agitators are carefully engineered for rapid and tool-free access, allowing only one technician to complete service in under 30 minutes. During maintenance, the shaft remains securely fixed and there is no need for the technician to enter the tank. Sealings and O-rings can be replaced from the outside.
Ready for connectivity
EnSaLine bottom mounted agitators are prepared for wireless condition monitoring, providing full control, effortless operation and enabling predictive maintenance.

Effortless efficiency
EnSaLine agitators deliver exceptional efficiency, reducing processing time and costs. EnSaFoil impellers deliver higher efficiency than comparable equipment, reducing processing time and increasing productivity. At a dairy facility, EnSaLine has demonstrated its high efficiency by reducing energy consumption in the agitation process to less than one-quarter of previous levels. At the same time, its hygienic design and superior cleanability ensure uncompromised product safety.
Effortless maintenance
The innovative, easy-to-access drive unit allows you to safely carry out inspections and maintenance in minutes rather than hours. No hoist is needed and no need to enter the tank. In addition, the unique Alfa Laval shaft seal assembly requires a minimal number of spare parts. Tailormade service tools prepacked in one suitcase allow for easy maintenance.
Effortless connectivity
EnSaLine agitators are prepared for industrial connectivity – enabling remote monitoring and support as well as remote control and automation.

Effortless configuration
Designed for simplified configuration, easy access to parts, and speedy installation, EnSaLine empowers integrators and tank builders to meet customer demands with more efficiency and flexibility than ever.
Special EnSaFerm agitator for fermentation
The EnSaFerm agitator ensures the highest standards of hygiene and maximum efficiency in dairy fermentation processes. The vertical blades of the impeller create radial flow that greatly improves coagulum breaking and reduces heat transfer.
Effortless upgrades
Existing agitators can easily be upgraded to EnSaLine for improved hygiene, easier maintenance and lower energy consumption. Modular seals provide flexibility. The cartridge can easily be replaced for different applications or different process properties, ensuring long service life of the agitator.
Latest customer success stories
FAQs on how the EnSaLine agitators and mixer improve energy efficiency and ensure reliable operation
Q. Is it possible to upgrade existing old agitators and gain benefits from EnSaLine?
A. Yes! It is easy. We just need some information on your existing flange diameter and then we can make a tailormade upgrade solution for you.
Q. How do I design my tanks with lifting lugs to incorporate service/maintenance on the agitators?
A. You don’t need any lifting lugs or special devices, because the EnSaLine agitators are fully serviceable from the outside using only a few basic tools—no drive‑unit dismantling required during maintenance.
Q. My welding flange is distorted during welding on my current design. How can I avoid this?
A. Our design significantly reduces this risk, and the lateral sealing system can handle far greater deviation than conventional solutions.
Q. How do the EnSaLine agitators improve efficiency?
A. By evaluating the entire mixing process and incorporating our EnSaFoil impeller into the technical proposal, we can guarantee measurable energy savings compared to existing solutions.
Q. How can I handle an unexpected equipment failure late at night when only one service technician is on site?
A. With a spare cartridge that includes the complete sealing arrangement, your technician can replace the entire unit in under 30 minutes and resume operation immediately afterward.
Q. How can I service the problematic O‑ring located between the mounting flange and the welding flange?
A. There’s no need for service at all, as this component has been completely eliminated from the design.
