Revolutionizing Industrial Mixing with Advanced Side-Entry Solutions
SPX FLOW has launched an updated version of its renowned TM and STM Series Heavy-Duty Side-Entry Mixers, tailored for industries demanding high reliability and efficiency. These mixers are engineered to excel in challenging environments, including oil and gas, biofuels, and chemical processing.
Enhancements and Features of the TM and STM Series
The latest iterations of the TM and STM series incorporate innovative features that ensure optimal performance even in the toughest conditions. Customers around the world have relied on these mixers for decades, recognizing their energy-efficient, safe, and low-maintenance operation.
Efficiency and Performance
At the heart of these mixers are high-efficiency impellers combined with a robust belt drive system. This configuration not only minimizes energy consumption but also enhances fluid movement, essential for effective mixing applications. With built-in durable seals, long-lasting bearings, and a practical tank shut-off mechanism, maintenance is greatly reduced.
Versatile Applications
One of the standout features of the TM and STM series is their versatility. These mixers can be configured in either fixed or swivel-angle designs, enabling them to effectively manage various mixing requirements, including sludge suspension, blending, and heat transfer.
Innovative Design for Enhanced Usability
The updated mixers feature a redesigned frame and sling that simplifies installation and maintenance. By eliminating the round body design, SPX FLOW has increased the seal cavity size and added a viewport, thereby enhancing access during service. The new sling design allows for the accommodation of larger, high-efficiency motor frames, further optimizing performance.
Extended Shafts and Safety Features
With elongated shafts designed to fit bigger motors without additional spacers, the mixers are more adaptable than ever. The novel belt guard design not only accommodates the shaft extension but also includes slotted mounting for easier motor plate rotation. Furthermore, these mixers come equipped with advanced safety features, fulfilling industry regulations, including mechanical seal leak detection and the use of corrosion-resistant materials.
