Amamix/Amaprop – Submersible Mixers
Efficient Design Evolution
Increasing European energy costs in 1980’s spurred evolution towards large blade mixers; which have been European standard since the mid 90’s
Submersible mixers were first manufactured in early 1960’s and were quickly implemented in WWTP’s
