Series 600 — Petroleum Service Mixers

Model Specifications

Standard Materials

Jensen standard materials offer optimum performance in any hydrocarbon application.

Gearbox Features

• Maximum gear loading is 54% of rated capacity.
• The lower flexible coupling half provides rain and dirt protection for the upper pinion bearing.
• Internal air volume has been reduced to eliminate condensate problems in tropical and coastal areas.
• Gearcase parts are cast of high strength, 356-T6 heat treated aluminum alloy.
• The body is of heat resistant steel to assure positive protection against product leakage under conditions of high temperature.
• The gearbox may be removed as a unit for shop maintenance without disturbing motor mount alignment or moving coupling halves.
• Gear inspection is simplified by the cartridge type pinion assembly which may be inspected without re-adjustment.
• All moving parts are completely enclosed by protective covers.
• Housings have rabbeted joints for positive alignment and are O-ring sealed.
• Gearbox housings form a protective enclosure around the mechanical seal, eliminating exposure to the elements and resulting in longer seal life.

Mechanical Seal — Type F

The Jensen Type "F" mechanical seal is an integral part of every Series 600 Mixer. It is designed for long life at low cost. Materials of construction are selected to suit petroleum applications. Both sealing members are extra heavy to prevent face distortion. If seal replacement is necessary, wearing parts may be purchased separately, cutting replacement cost in half.

Seal Protection

When the mechanical seal is replaced, the shaft is sealed at two points. In addition to the front locking seal, an O-Ring Seal (A) is brought in from the seal as engaged. This secondary shaft seal minimizes product loss during seal change and acts as a back-up for the main locking seal. A sight glass (B) is provided for seal leak detection.

Seal Replacement Procedure

1. 1Remove yoke bolts and bearing cap.
2. 2Pull shaft back and rotate ¼ turn counter clockwise until lock engages and shaft stops.
3. 3Remove the shaft bolt, thrust bearing assembly, and the key and yoke.
4. 4Remove the seal by carefully sliding it off the shaft.
5. 5True cartridge design simplifies removal and insures positive seal face protection during change-out.

Mixer Selection

Coupling Features

The design simplicity of the Jensen non-lubricated coupling guarantees maximum life even under the most severe conditions. The tough, multi-ply flexible nylon and rubber element permits angular and parallel misalignment in excess of other couplings. Removal of the driver gearbox or flexible element can be accomplished without moving hubs on their shaft.

The flexible "Tors" element is a patented product of The Falk Corporation.

Vari-Angle Features

The Jensen Vari-Angle mixer features a precision, ball-type stuffing box allowing up to 60 degrees of angular movement. Sealing of the VA ball is accomplished by Jensen's innovative ferrule seal backed by Teflon impregnated non-asbestos packing which is fully adjustable, eliminating leaks. Mixer weight is supported entirely by two heavy-duty, pin-type hinges.

Angle changes can be made easily by one person or automatically controlled by the optional Mechanical Actuator. As with all Jensen Mixers — no turn-buckles, no tie rods, no bases, no other extra supports required.
