4.1. DESCRIPTION The range of the BFI agitators is vertical agitators with a direct motor-driven and a stainless steel base. Despite it being very compact, these agitators have bearing support independent of the motor. The shaft is guided for two bearings which support the axial and radial forces transmitted by the agitation element.
When receiving the agitator, check the packaging and its content to ensure that it matches the delivery note. INOXPA packs the agitator in their fully assembled form or disassembled on a case-by-case basis. Ensure that the agitator has not been damaged in any way. If it is not in good condition and/or any parts are missing, the carrier must submit a report as soon as possible.

The bearing houses are also cleaned and finally re-greased with 50% - 70% grease.
9. Place the O-rings (80A) on the propeller (02) and thread the propeller to the shaft (05). Add food grease in the threaded joint of the propeller and the shaft for a correct assemble. 10. Place the agitator on the tank. INOXPA S.A.U. 20.006.30.02EN · (0) 2021/09...
