LM™ (Linear Motion) Mixer

Source: Ovivo

LM mixers offer solutions to the challenges of mixing wastewater in both thin sludge and thick sludge applications. Independently run and reported full lithium chloride tracer test studies and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) analyses have shown that LM mixers provide homogeneous mixing by creating a turbulent liquid-core of micro and macro eddy currents.

LM mixers offer solutions to the challenges of mixing wastewater in both thin sludge and thick sludge applications. Independently run and reported full lithium chloride tracer test studies and Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) analyses have shown that LM mixers provide homogeneous mixing by creating a turbulent liquid-core of micro and macro eddy currents. These currents are accelerated rapidly through the central opening of an oscillating ring shaped hydro-disk. This disk moves up and down through the mixed liquid and creates the distinctive linear motion displacement-mixing action of the LM mixer.

LM™ Mixers Save Energy
LM mixers feature an innovatively engineered internal cam design, which helps to transmit energy from the drive motor to the liquid extremely efficiently. Unlike conventional mixers, which require large gear boxes or heavy balanced drive shafts, all LM mixers are designed to use available gear boxes with output speeds specific to each application. The LM mixer’s efficiency allows the use of smaller motors, significantly reducing annual energy usage and operating costs.
