Should the mixing motor for the reaction vessel be horizontal type B or vertical type V?

2017-12-19View Original

Thread Content

Most of the stirrer motors found in reaction vessels are horizontal type B series motors mounted vertically; vertical type V series motors are rarely used. The main difference between vertical and horizontal types lies in the lubrication and cooling of the motor bearings. Theoretically, vertical V-series motors are better, but in practice, horizontal B-series motors installed in a vertical configuration have also functioned without any problems. Experts, how do you use it where you are?

We have both horizontal and vertical types available; the choice depends first on the power level required, and second on the customer’s requirements

Based on actual usage, a vertical design is still better

Both forms are available, with the vertical type being more common!

Our company offers many vertical mixer tank reducer motors; it depends on the customer’s requirements and the available installation space

Our polymerization reactors and agitators are all vertical

Both forms are available; the vertical type is generally used, while the horizontal type is used when there is insufficient installation space.

Surely the vertical type is simpler; the transmission direction of the horizontal type is 90 degrees different.

The vertical installation format is commonly used. In addition to gear reducers, there are also cycloidal reducers that are relatively inexpensive and suitable for situations where the operating conditions are not very demanding. Horizontal installation is generally chosen only due to height constraints; after all, the center of gravity is off-center, so it is used less frequently in reaction vessels.
