Side entry mixer for industrial tank applications
In industrial operations, mixing large volumes within tanks can be challenging due to the need for optimal fluid dynamics and easy maintenance. Engineers often face issues with bearing corrosion and fluid contamination, which can affect the lifespan of the equipment and require frequent maintenance interruptions.
Enhance fluid mixing and reduce maintenance
The RSE – Gear Drive Side Entering Mixer by SPX Flow is specifically designed to address these challenges in industrial tank applications. The rugged shaft support design ensures it can withstand all fluid dynamic forces, providing reliable performance. This mixer features bearings that significantly exceed AGMA requirements for durability, contributing to longer service life and reduced maintenance concerns. Additionally, the shaft bearings are located outside the tank to prevent corrosion and contamination. Installation is straightforward, minimizing start-up expenses and reducing the need for multiple manholes per tank. The mixer offers options for replaceable cartridge seals or a stuffing box with standard Buna N seals, and optional Teflon and Viton A seals for different operational requirements.
Benefits
- Long-lasting durability due to robust shaft support
- Reduced maintenance with external shaft bearings
- Easy installation cuts down on start-up costs
- Customizable sealing options for diverse applications
- Fewer manholes needed per tank, simplifying tank design
