Medium torque mixer for chemical processing

Achieve optimal mixing efficiency and process consistency in demanding applications with this medium torque top-entering mixer, perfectly suited for environments requiring robust agitation solutions.

Mixes and Blends Liquids and Slurries Efficiently

The Lightnin Compact Series Medium Torque Top Entering Mixer offers a reliable solution for water treatment, mining, and chemical processing. It features a streamlined design that reduces footprint and integrates seamlessly with existing setups, enhancing ease of installation. The mixer operates using Lightnin’s proprietary gearbox and impeller technology, delivering consistent mixing performance across a range of viscosities and product types, such as mineral slurries, chemical additives, and wastewater sludge.

This mixer supports applications requiring mixing, blending, and agitation, each tailored for continuous, high-torque operations. With power options ranging from 0.75kW to 55kW and variable shaft speeds between 13 rpm and 155 rpm, it adapts to various operational needs. The inclusion of IEC or NEMA flanged motors ensures compliance with regional standards, including ATEX or XP certifications.

Constructed for durability, the mixer is available in materials suitable for harsh chemical environments, offers simple maintenance due to its dry well design, and supports open tank mounting with standardized bolt patterns. Its simplistic yet robust engineering reduces maintenance requirements with features like an oversized fill hole for straightforward lubrication management. Customization options, such as mechanical seals for pressure containment, enhance its operational versatility.
