Installation Types of the Oil Drilling Fluids Mud Agitator in Solids Control

Oct 22, 2013

In a mud mixing tank, we will always see mud agitator, mud gun, mixing pump and a venturi hopper. Mud agitator and mud gun are the indispensable devices for drilling mud solids control system.

Mud agitator is used in surface mud system to suspend solids and maintain homogeneous mixture through the system. KOSUN Mud Agitator is a mechanical agitator driven by an explosion-proof motor, coupled to a gear box that drives the impeller shaft. KOSUN Mud Agitator mixes the suspended solids using both axial and radial flows, and by utilizing low shear mixers to suspend and mix mud additives particle size degradation and polymer shear unlike centrifugal pumps or mud guns. KOSUN Mud Agitator is relatively low shear and low energy device.

A mud agitator is used in surface mud systems to suspend solids and maintain homogeneous mixture throughout the system. A mechanical agitator is driven by an explosion-proof motor, coupled to a gear box that drives the impeller shaft. The impellers ( turbines ) transform mechanical power into fluid circulation or agitation. The objective is to obtain a uniform suspension of all solids.

Installation Types

The mud agitator is available in both horizontal mud agitator and vertical mud agitator according to the installation type you required, some clients will need it to save the place to choose a vertical type to save space – sizes range from 5 to 30 HP. KOSUN Mud Agitator carries a one-year warranty.
