Abstract
A baffle system is provided for insertion into a stirred vessel. In order to be able to be inserted through the relatively narrow orifice at the opening of the vessel, the baffle system is collapsible. Due to the structure of the baffle system, it may be inserted through the narrow orifice and then be manipulated, via articulated joints, such that it rests adjacent to the wider walls of the vessel.
