A310/A510
Impeller Overview
 3 bladed hydrofoil design. The basis for the
industry standard
 One piece “Casting” design (as shown) or
bolted blade design
 Tip Chord Angle Varies from 12 to 32 degrees
on A510 to give flexibility in sizing/selection

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Mostly used on gear driven portables
and on all heavy products
 Used for low viscosity blending and
solids suspension applications

All Products

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 28


A312
Impeller Overview
 3 bladed hydrofoil design. The blades are wider
than the A310/A510.
 Typically bolted on blades are used.
 Higher blade solidity improves operation in
tough side entry applications (e.g. pulp and
paper)
 Can also be used in demanding draft tube
applications
Primary Product Use Typical Applications
 Mostly used on side entry agitators
 Used in pulp and paper blending, FGD
applications (Flue Gas) and industrial
blending applications
 Plenty Forward Rake Propeller also
used in these applications
Side Entry Agitators

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 29


A200
Impeller Overview
 4 bladed straight blade design. Typically 45
degree tip chord angle for blade.
 Typically bolted on blades are used.
 Was the precursor to the hydrofoil impeller
(first axial flow type impeller)

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Can be used in all applications.
 Typically requires more power and
more torque than a hydrofoil impeller.
 A good impeller selection for medium
viscosity applications (>10000 cps)

Medium to Large Top Entry Agitators

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 30


A315/A320
Impeller Overview
 A315 is 4 bladed; A320 is 3 bladed
 High solidity impeller with good axial flow
characteristics
 Blades are typically bolted

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Gassing applications where solids
suspension is important
 Can be paired with radial flow
impellers (like R100/R130/R135) to
improve blending/solids suspensions
in gassed applications
Medium to Large Top Entry Agitators  A320 with 3 blades can be used for
lower gas rates and also high
viscosity blending applications
(>10000 cps)
COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 31
R100
Impeller Overview
 Radial Flow – Flat Blade Impeller
 Typically 6 blades but can have 4, 6, or 8 blades
of varying dimensions to suit the application
 First impeller developed for fluid mixing in
1940’s/1950’s
 Blades are typically bolted construction

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Gassing applications where a high
power input is required (e.g.
Fermentation and Mining Autoclaves)
 Not a good choice for solids
suspension applications
 Works well with other impellers (A510
Medium to Large Top Entry Agitators / A315) paired with it

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 32


R130
Impeller Overview
 Radial Flow – Half Pipe Style Blades
 Typically 6 blades
 Half the power number of an R100 (less torque)
 Blades are typically bolted construction

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Gassing applications where a high
power input is required (e.g.
Fermentation and Mining Autoclaves)
 Handles gas more efficiently than
R100 (less likely to flood)
 Still can be paired with axial flow style
Medium to Large Top Entry Agitators impellers (A510, A315)

COMPANY CONFIDENTIAL July 9, 2014 33


R500/R510
Impeller Overview
 R500 - Also known as Sawtooth Impeller
 R510 – Also known as Bar Turbine (lower right
R500 photo)
 Typically one piece design for smaller tanks
(impeller diameters less than 30” typically)
 Designed to operate at high tip speeds (>2000
fpm)

Primary Product Use Typical Applications


 Used for high shear applications
where physical break up of mixed
material is important (pigment
dispersion)
 R510 produces more flow and thus
can be used alone. R500 typically
All Products needs another impeller (like A510)
with it to work well in a tank)
 Limited applications
