Description
316 SS Drum Mixer – 14 GPM Flow, Suspends Solids through 2″ Bung Opening
This high-performance drum mixer is engineered for industrial and laboratory applications where efficient mixing and suspension of settled materials are crucial. Designed to fit through just a 2″ NPS bung opening on a 55‑gallon drum, this mixer delivers powerful performance in a compact package. The mixer’s four internal turbine blades iterate an aggressive mixing pattern: drawing liquid in and blasting it straight down at a robust 14 gallons per minute (GPM), actively uplifting solids and re‑dissolving settled particulates for uniform consistency...
Constructed entirely with 316 stainless steel wetted parts—including shafts, turbine blades, and housing—this mixer offers superior resistance to corrosion and chemical attack. Static and dynamic sealing is handled via graphite‑filled PTFE seals, ensuring reliable leak‑free operation even with viscous fluids up to 1,000 centipoise (cps). Its compact footprint and sealed integrity make it ideal for aggressive chemicals, viscous resins, coatings, adhesives, or pigment suspensions....
You can choose from three versatile motor options to suit your facility’s environment:
TEFC (Totally Enclosed Fan Cooled) Motor, 3/4 HP, 1‑phase, 115 V, supplied with an 8 ft cord and 3‑prong plug—perfect for general indoor use when explosion risk is low...
Explosion‑Proof (EP) Motor, 3/4 HP, 1‑phase, 115 V, Class 1 Group D, supplied with 8 ft cord (plug not included)—designed for hazardous‑location environments. Must be wired per local electrical codes...
Air Motor option, delivering approximately 25 CFM at 100 PSI, with built‑in speed control and muffler, suitable for locations where electrical power isn’t available or sparks must be avoided...
The mixer weighs just 17 pounds, making it easily handled for drum insertion and removal. The turbine blade assembly and motor coupling are modular for easy cleaning and maintenance. Overall, this system blends portability, power, and precision engineering—tying together high‑viscosity mixing capability, chemical durability, and compliance with industrial safety standards...
Whether you’re processing thick coatings, pigments, slurries, or suspended solids, this drum mixer reliably restores homogeneity with minimal downtime. The turbine design actively engages settled materials at the drum bottom and walls, minimizing manual re‑agitation efforts. The 14 GPM flow rate balances power and control to avoid agitation that may introduce excessive air or destructive shear on sensitive materials..
This mixer is optimized for viscous industrial liquids, with a precise turbine‑blade design engineered to draw settled solids upward and re‑incorporate them into the fluid stream. The 14 GPM flow rate delivers enough shear and turbulence to suspend materials without over‑aerating or over‑shearing sensitive formulations. The 4‑blade turbine accelerates fluid directly downward, creating a vortical motion within the drum that prevents dead zones and ensures rapid homogenization...
Material selection is premium: 316 stainless steel guarantees excellent resistance to chlorides and acids, while graphite‑filled PTFE seals offer low friction and high chemical inertness. With wetted parts fully isolated from the motor, the mixer performs reliably even in aggressive solvents or coatings..
Your choice of motor configuration enables deployment in many environments. The TEFC motor is ready to use with a standard plug. The Explosion‑Proof version, rated for Class 1, Group D hazardous areas, helps maintain compliance in flammable‑dust or vapor zones. The Air motor, meanwhile, is perfect where electrical motors are prohibited or pneumatic systems are preferred; adjustable speed and muffler provide process control and operator comfort...
At just 17 lb, the unit can be easily loaded into and extracted from drums without heavy lifting tools. Maintenance is simplified by a modular design: the motor section disconnects from the shaft and turbine assembly for cleaning or inspection. Overall, this mixer offers a blend of power, portability, chemical resilience, and safety compliance tailored to industrial mixing operations..
