ABS Expands the Mixer Range With a New Efficient Sludge Specialist

ABS Submersible Mixer RW 480

Reducing life cycle costs have been the development focus of the new ABS RW 480. The result is introduced in a mixer equipped with a special self-cleaning 2-blade propeller for blockage free mixing. A strong rotating turbulent flow is produced in radial and axial direction and the propellers combine all properties for the homogenization of sewage sludge which belongs to the intrinsic viscous substances.

The ABS RW 480 is designed for long operational life. The lubricated-for-life bearings has a calculated life of more than 100,000 operating hours and the high efficient gear box is built for continous operation.

Reduced energy costs are easily achieved with the high efficient 4-pole motor and the 1-stage helical gear box.

The reliability issues are further enhanced due to the highly efficient water pressure-tight encapsulated three-phase motor available with both 7.50 kW and 11.0 kW. The motor is equipped with a Thermo control system that protects the motor from overheat and automatically shutting it down before damage can occur.

The ABS submersible mixer RW 480 is used for mixing of viscous fluids containing solids in sewage treatment plants, biogas power plants, industry as well as agriculture.

A Peruvian mining company reuses process water as part of their iron ore processing. Until November 2019, however, this was made difficult by the fact that the medium, which is collected in a tank on site, has a very high solids content of 60 to 70 per cent. After an attempt to drain the water and remove the sediment in the tank with shovels had failed after four days, the owner decided to purchase a submersible pump with an agitator.
