Union Process, Inc., known globally as a manufacturer of particle size reduction and dispersing equipment, as well as a supplier of grinding media and materials characterization services for a broad range of research and industrial applications, has manufactured a new mobile premix tank with a pump assembly.
 
The 5-gallon, PT5 premix tank is constructed of 304SS with a carbon steel jacket for cooling. The tank includes a sealed cover assembly for low vacuum and a gauge. A sight glass and ¾” product inlet allow for the user to monitor the slurry inside the tank. The cover and drive assembly are fastened to the premix tank with simple-to-use hand knobs. The tank and drive are mounted on a specially designed mobile cart with two locking swivel casters and two fixed casters.
 
The associated Seepex pump assembly is an eccentric screw type with a DC motor operated through a DC drive with input power of 115v/1PH/60Hz. The drive is housed in a NEMA4 wash down enclosure. Similar to the tank, the pump assembly is attached to a mobile cart. Both carts have drip pans with drain plugs.
 
Said Sales Manager Chuck Major: “The real advantage to the customer here is the mobility this system offers. The ability to easily transport the tank/pump system to anywhere in the plant is a huge benefit to many of our customers.”
