PIXL: Agitator Maintenance Made Easy – Without Vessel Entry
Why PIXL?
The PIXL system is designed to simplify maintenance and improve safety. By enabling external access to the agitator head, technicians can perform servicing tasks without climbing into the vessel saving time, reducing risk, and ensuring compliance with hygiene standards.
Just like the standard Plug-In Flange, the PIXL maintains a hermetical seal between the vessel interior and exterior using a reliable O-ring system. This ensures process integrity while offering greater flexibility in handling.
Compatible and versatile
PIXL is available for all ZETA agitator heads, making it a versatile upgrade for a wide range of applications, including:
- Large substrate tanks
- Mobile vessels
- Buffer vessels
- Feed vessels
- Storage tanks
Whether stationary or mobile, PIXL brings convenience and control to your mixing setup.
More safety, more efficiency, more flexibility
The Plug-In Flange XL (PIXL) is more than just a mechanical upgrade – it’s a strategic enhancement for process safety, efficiency, and flexibility. Whether you’re dealing with large tanks or mobile vessels, PIXL helps you stay ahead with smarter maintenance and reliable performance.
Success story: BMRT retrofit with PIXL
One customer faced recurring issues with their existing magnetic agitator:
- Unstable performance and frequent bushing failures after short operating periods
- Delayed troubleshooting led to increasing batch losses
ZETA stepped in with a robust solution: a BMRT retrofit using PIXL. The existing welded flange was removed and replaced with a new ZETA PIXL flange. This upgrade enabled:
- Simplified maintenance and installation without vessel entry
- Bottom-side removal of the agitator head for fast servicing
- Improved process reliability and reduced downtime
The result? A stable, easy-to-maintain system that restored confidence in production and eliminated batch losses.
