When a storage tank does not have adequate turnover to operate a passive mixer, use the powerMIX Storage Tank Mixing System. This electrically powered mixer will improve water quality in any tank, using an axial flow impeller to mix the water on demand. Passive mixing systems also complicate maintenance of the storage tank when it is necessary to renovate the coatings. The large amount of additional piping inside the tank adds complexity and cost to the renovation. The powerMIX is easily removed during renovations so it is not in the way.
The powerMIX System can be used in any tank geometry. The standard system works great in ground storage tanks and elevated tanks. When used in tanks with a deep water column (over 60′ depth), such as a standpipe, it is recommended that the EXT Package is used. This adds an additional flexible tube, available in any length, to the mixer which guarantees the mixer jet will reach the water surface.
The powerMIX System uses stainless steel for all metallic components ensuring a long service life. The system includes a NEMA 3R ground level control panel that allows for adjustable run times and features a soft start for increased motor life. Other systems have to run continuously to provide the same results. This causes the motor to burn out prematurely. The powerMIX is able to maintain tank mixing without needing to run continuously. Typical run times are set for 2 hours on and 4 hours off. These run times can be adjusted to match any tank.
