Compressed Design Anticorrosion Vertical Drilling Mud Agitator

Vertical APMA Mud Agitators Compressed Design And Smoothly Operating

Vertical APMA series mud Agitator is part of the drilling fluids solids control equipment, which is mainly used to agitate and mix the drilling mud to prevent solids particles from depositing in the circulating tank and to stabilize the performance of drilling fluids. The motor and speed reducer, speed reducer and impeller shaft are connected by steel coupling.

Please check below technical specifications for your reference. And some configuration is customizable. Please contact us for more details.

In a complete mud system, how many sets of agitators do we need?

For oil and gas drilling, there are different configurations on tanks number, tanks size, so it's not easy to confirm. But we can take a system as an example. One mud system laying with 6 tanks, and tanks size are 9mX2.2mX2.3m. The normal proposal is 3 sets of agitator per tank. But there is a shaker tank, then we deduct 1 set. So, probably we need 17 sets of the agitator. And the agitators are APM7.5 driven by 7.5kw motor.

Vertical mud agitators main feature?

Vertical mud agitators' mainly benefit is save space of mud tank with same function of horizontal type agitators.

Is there any other configuration on the agitator type or drive system?

Yes. Some clients prefer the hydraulic drive for some specific use. Some clients prefer the stainless steel shaft and impeller. Different application and industry will request equipment much different If you have question or demand on mud mixers, please let us know and we'll help you to get the ideal solution

Moreover, the APMA series agitator is flexible on gearbox and motor configuration. Such as worm and worm wheel reducer, helical bevel reducer. The motor certified by IEC, ATEX, and so on

Mud Agitator Direction

The agitator direction is not very strict because both direction is workable, the right direction is good agitating performance but heavier load and wrong direction will reduced load and agitating performance is not that good. The right direction is to press the mud downwards instead of upwards. While the mud goes down wards, the settled solids will be flushed up to keep a good agitating performance.

Electrical Standard for Mud Agitator

Explosion proof agitator is required for oil & gas drilling site, coal seam bethane drilling or mining. The Ex standard is different depending on different countries regulation and drilling site. Non explosion proof agitator is good for other drilling site like horizontal directional drilling, water well drilling, micro tunneling, pilling, etc. Ex standard is a customized part will be done as per buyer’s request.
