Tank Mixing Eductors are used to agitate
or mix Liquids stored in tanks, pits, or sumps. They are Static Mixers
that can be used to mix
or blend different liquids together in a tank, or simply maintain a homogeneous mixture in a
tank.
They can also be used to mix or dissolve powders into liquids or
to keep solid particles in suspension.
Tank
Mixing Eductors can often replace motor-driven mechanical
agitators and avoid the maintenance associated with mechanical devices.
The motive fluid can also be air or other
gas to aerate or disperse gas into a liquid. When steam is the motive
fluid, the
TME becomes an effective heater.
OPERATION
Liquid discharges from the motive nozzle at a high velocity and
entrains the surrounding tank liquid into the suction inlet openings of
the
TME.
The mixed stream passes through the mixing venturi,
which provides a pressure to overcome the Static head of liquid in
the tank above the
TME, and a circulating flow pattern is established. |
