Prochem MD Series Mixers

Product catalog summary
Overview
Prochem side entering agitators are designed to meet critical mixing applications globally, offering reliable performance and dependability. These agitators are marketed under the Chemineer™ and Prochem™ brand names and are known for their innovative solutions that ensure consistent performance, minimize maintenance costs, and provide long service life.

Specifications and Features
Side entering agitators typically utilize higher horsepower at faster rotational speeds compared to top entering agitators. They are easily mounted to the side of a vessel and have shorter shaft lengths, making them lighter. The agitators offer application versatility with the proprietary ChemScale™ method for effective agitator selection and come in both gear or belt-driven configurations.

Drive Choices
The agitators are available in gear-driven and belt-driven designs, suitable for demanding applications in industries such as Pulp and Paper, Flue Gas Desulphurization, Biofuel, Petroleum Blending, and more. The HS agitators feature a spiral bevel gear-driven design, the PB agitators have a belt-driven design with a pillow block bearing configuration, and the MD agitators also have a belt-driven design with an innovative bearing cartridge configuration.

Design Parameters
Gear-driven agitators come in four standard sizes ranging from 1 to 75 HP, with custom designs available for higher HP applications. They feature hardened spiral bevel gearing for higher power transfer efficiency and long service life. Belt-driven agitators offer a standard belt drive service factor of 1.3, with options up to 2.0, and can handle up to 500 HP.

Advanced Impeller Technology
The WSE-3 impeller is the premier choice for side entering units, providing high pumping and low shear rates. It features a hydrodynamic design for greater cavitation resistance and bolted blade construction for easier maintenance. Other impeller options include the Mark III and HE-3S, each offering unique performance characteristics.

Aftermarket and Technical Support
An extensive network of factory-trained field sales representatives and in-house application engineers provide effective fluid mixing solutions. Superior field technical support and an extensive inventory of replacement parts are available, along with a 24/7 hotline for installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting support.
