LVSES Series
Generally, horsepower levels are proportional to process results for a given type of impeller and running speed. Horsepower requirements for a particular application depend on the following mixing variables:
• Blend time
• Tank height/diameter ratio and tank volume
• Viscosity
• Density difference
• Impeller orientation Motor horsepower is determined by applying the formula:
(Volume Factor)x(Time Factor) x (Viscosity Factor) x (Density Difference Factor)
Blend Time
Additional Considerations:
• Sizing strategy applies for most typical API tank configurations, limiting tank
heights to 15m to 18m.Within these heights, there is no Z/T correction. However, actual initial Z/T should be greater than 0.25. Otherwise, the required mixing flow pattern will not be properly developed.
• Use of LIGHTNIN’s high efficiency impellers can reduce power requirements or blend time by 40% or more.
• If conditions vary from those in this example, please consult
your LIGHTNIN sales engineer for mixer sizing and selection assistance.
