The Alfa Laval ALS side-mounted agitator consists of a drive unit with bearing frame, shaft with special shaft seal, and specially designed energy-saving impeller (EnSaFoil) with two or three blades. The complete Alfa Laval agitator range includes top-, bottom- and side-mounting models.

The Alfa Laval ALS side-mounted agitator has an electrical drive motor that transmits the energy required for mixing and blending, either directly or via a gearbox, to the agitator shaft. The shaft rotates, turning the EnSaFoil impeller. The impeller movement creates a high flow with low shear due to the highly effective axial pumping effect on the liquid in the tank. This results in effective mixing and blending of the entire contents of the tank.
