Tank Mixers

Tank mixers are crucial for maintaining consistency and ensuring optimal chemical reactions in metal finishing and industrial processes. These mixers effectively agitate solutions in plating tanks, mix large volumes in holding tanks for pH adjustment, and aid in the addition of flocculants during waste treatment. With options from leading manufacturers like Lightnin® and Brawn Mixer®, our tank mixers are built to handle a variety of applications, providing reliable performance and enhancing process efficiency.

When selecting a tank mixer, consider the following factors to ensure the best fit for your process:

  • Solution Description: Specify the type of solution to be mixed.
  • Tank Size: Provide dimensions and volume of the tank.
  • Operating Conditions: Consider operating temperature, pressure, and environmental factors.
  • Mounting and Drive Options: Choose between closed or open tank mounts, and direct, gear, or right-angle drives.
  • Motor Type: Determine if electric or air motors are needed for your application.
  • Impeller Type: Select from Square Pitch Prop, AF3 Hydrofoil, or custom designs.
  • Wetted Parts: Choose materials like 316SS, Hastelloy, Alloy 20, Titanium GR2, Duplex 2205, etc.
  • Number of Mixers Required: Specify the number of mixers needed.

Replacement Mixer Parts

To ensure the continued efficiency and reliability of your horizontal pumps, we provide a range of replacement parts tailored for these systems:

Impellers:

Essential for moving the solution through the pump. Regular replacement is necessary to maintain optimal performance.

Mechanical Seals:

These seals prevent leaks around the pump shaft, crucial for avoiding fluid loss and ensuring safe operation.

Pump Casings:

The outer shell of the pump, which protects the internal components. Replacement is needed if there are signs of wear, cracks, or corrosion.

Bearings:

Support the rotating shaft, reducing friction and wear. Worn-out bearings can lead to increased vibration and noise, indicating the need for replacement.

Shafts:

Connects the motor to the impeller. A worn or damaged shaft can significantly affect pump performance.

O-rings and Gaskets:

Provide sealing between various components to prevent leaks and maintain pressure. They should be replaced regularly to ensure the integrity of the pump.

Applications of Tank Mixers

Metal Finishing

In metal finishing, tank mixers ensure that plating solutions are uniformly agitated, maintaining consistent coating thickness and preventing defects. They are essential in both small plating baths and large holding tanks, where proper mixing is critical for process efficiency.

Waste Treatment

Tank mixers play a crucial role in waste treatment, mixing large volumes of liquid for pH adjustment, coagulant addition, and flocculation. These processes are vital for preparing waste streams for safe disposal or further treatment.

Chemical Processing

Tank mixers in chemical processing ensure that solutions are evenly mixed, which is essential for maintaining reaction consistency and product quality. These mixers are built to handle corrosive chemicals and high-viscosity fluids, delivering reliable performance in demanding applications.
