A submersible mixer is a type of mixing equipment used in various industries for blending, agitation, and homogenization of liquids or slurry. Unlike conventional mixers that operate from the top of the tank or vessel, submersible mixers are submerged directly into the substance being mixed. This design allows for efficient mixing without the need for complex mechanical structures above the liquid surface.
1. Motor: Submersible mixers are equipped with an electric motor capable of operating underwater. The motor is usually sealed to prevent water from entering and damaging its internal components.
2. Impeller: The impeller is the rotating component responsible for creating fluid motion and mixing. It may come in various designs depending on the application requirements, such as propeller-type, axial-flow, or radial-flow impellers.
3. Shaft: The shaft connects the motor to the impeller and transmits the rotational motion generated by the motor to the impeller.
4. Seals: Seals are essential to prevent leakage of the liquid into the motor and electrical components. They ensure the submersible mixer operates safely and efficiently in submerged conditions.
5. Housing: The housing encases the motor and provides structural support for the mixer. It is typically made of corrosion-resistant materials such as stainless steel or reinforced plastics.
6. Mounting: Submersible mixers can be mounted in various ways depending on the application. They may be suspended from above using chains or brackets, or they may be installed on the tank bottom using specialized mounting systems.
Submersible mixers find applications in wastewater treatment plants, chemical processing, food and beverage production, and other industries where mixing of liquids or slurry is required. They offer advantages such as efficient mixing, compact design, and the ability to operate in challenging environments. Additionally, they can be easily installed and maintained compared to some other types of mixers.
