AGITATORS TYPE PPR

The PPR-Type agitator has a retractable paddle turbine attached to the shaft end and is driven by a socket system mounted directly to the gear shaft.

The impeller profi le is specially engineered to open out automatically when the shaft begins to turn and fold back when the agitator is switched off . The impeller section can be passed through a bung diameter of just 115 mm. PPR agitators have a turbine up to 500 mm in diameter, and can also be secured by a mounting plate or a bridge mount with handles for IBCs. We supply with three-phase 50 Hertz tropicalized motors as standard. The standard impeller shaft is made from 316L stainless steel. The PPR agitator is available with multiple options.

AGITATORS TYPE F

The F-Type agitator has a shaft-welded impeller and is driven by a socket system mounted directly to the gear shaft.

The F-Type is designed for fl occulation. It operates at low speed to avoid breaking up the fl ocs while ensuring extremely high fl occulation performance. This fl occulator is available with 250 to 1,000 mm diameter impellers and includes a mounting plate. We supply with three-phase 50 Hertz tropicalized motors as standard. The standard impeller shaft is made from 316L stainless steel. The F-Type agitator is often ordered with the optional variable frequency drive. This fl occulator can be fi tted with one or two impellers and off ers a range of options.

AGITATORS TYPE P

The P agitator has a shaft-welded turbine and is driven by a socket system mounted directly to the gear shaft.

The type of agitator is determined by the required application: reagent preparations, homogenisation, polyelectrolyte preparation, etc P agitators have a 250 or 700 diameter turbine, and can also be secured by a mounting plate or screw-clamp system. We supply with three-phase 50 Hertz tropicalized motors as standard. The standard impeller shaft is made from 316l stainless steel. The P agitator can be fi tted with one or two turbines, and is available with multiple options.

AGITATORS TYPE AFS

The twin paddles on the drum agitator fold back to fit through the bung on standard containers.

TMI recommends this type of appliance for small volumes and simple mixing applications. The type of agitator is determined by the required application. We supply with three-phase 50 Hertz tropicalized motors as standard. The standard impeller shaft is made from 316L stainless steel. The agitator can be inserted through a 60 mm or wider bung opening for greater versatility if required.

AGITATORS TYPE AB

The AB agitator has a shaft-welded impeller driven by a socket system mounted directly to the motor shaft.

TMI recommends this type of appliance for small volumes and simple mixing applications. Agitation is determined by the required application. AB agitators have a 120 or 160 diameter turbine, and can also be secured by a mounting plate or screw-clamp system. We supply with three-phase 50 Hertz tropicalized motors as standard. The standard impeller shaft is made from 316L stainless steel.

OPTIONAL MOUNTING FRAME

The optional mounting frame off ers a signifi cant benefi t when installing and servicing an aerator.

With a mounting frame, the aerator can be fi tted and removed in one piece and in one operation, without having to be disassembled. On a normal aerator, the relatively large moving mixing section requires the turbine to be disassembled and the gear motor and mounting parts to be individually removed, followed by the moving section from underneath. Our frame is wider than the diameter of the aerator, which allows the entire unit to be lifted by the four corner-mounted lifting lugs.

NOISE CONTROL COVER/SPRAY COVER

A noise control cover mounted around the motor unit significantly reduces the audible noise level.

Its open-top design ensures that the motor unit remains properly vented, removing the need for a fan. The surface aerator sprays are hooded for two main reasons:

HIGH-SPEED AERATORS

High-speed aerators diff er from low-speed versions in that they are mainly used for processes in which the oxygen transfer rate is not a crucial factor (under 1.1 kg of O2/kW/h).

They consist of a high-rpm turbine inside a pipe. The pumpimpeller assembly is mounted on a polyester fl oat. The motor used is determined by the power supply characteristics.

FLOATING AERATORS

Floating aerators from TMI are primarily used on lagoons where civil engineering works would be very costly or unfeasible.

These fl oating aerators share the same design characteristics as fi xed aerators, in which a gear motor with a high AGMA rating drives a surface turbine at low rpm. The only diff erence is in the installation: these aerators sit atop a floating frame mounted on three fl oats to prevent any risk of leaks. They are attached to threaded rods to enable fine adjustments.

AERATORS AVL2

Our AVL 2 aerators consist of a drive unit and a low-rpm, surface-level turbine.

The thin-blade, hub-welded turbines are designed to ensure a high oxygen transfer rate and to effectively keep the sludge in suspension. These low-speed aerators are available in 5.5 kW to 75 kW versions. The turbines are available in 1,220 to 2,800 mm diameter, 3- to 18-blade versions.
