Mud agitator is a part of solid control system of mud tank, which is mainly used in agitating and blending drilling fluid so as to control the depositions of solid particles in its tank cycling system and keep the mud property of circulation stable and mixture uniform.
Mud agitator features
1. The reducer adopts a cylindrical worm with an axial section of circular acre. The circular acre teeth of impeller wheel are conjugated with the worm, which provide good convexo-concave engagement, high efficiency transmission, strong agitating ability and compact structure.
2. The reducer combines with anti-explosion motor, which is suit for rough operation condition in field, and can be repaired conveniently.
3. New up-down structural agitating impeller wheels have a two-layers structure, which can be used as one-layer and dual-layer one.
4. The strong agitation, broad conformance and low starting moment of resistance are provided.
5. Level – placed motor is easy for installation, adjustment and replacement.
Mud agitator maintenance
1. Lift the agitator horizontally and stably, put it in the desired position. After coaxial degree adjusted <0.39, weld four M16 seats to tank and screw up tightly the fix bolts.
2. Spring Washers must be added to the bolts of the rigid shaft adapter and be tightened unless the impeller shaft will deflect, resulting in severe reducer wear.
3. Abnormal sound, sticking and over temperature should not happen unless shut – down trouble – shooting must be given.
4. The oil level of the reducers should be kept in the middle position of oil window and often feed during operation. 120# gear oil is recommended for the reducer. When no supply in field, other lubricants with appropriate viscosity can be applied.
