ROSS recently designed a new skid system capable of mixing and pumping low to moderately viscous products. The Model VSL-400 design is a custom conical vessel on a movable skid with a progressive cavity pump rated for 10-30 gallons/minute. A 5HP inverter-duty motor drives a flange-mounted turbine mixer equipped with two axial flow impellers. The 34” diameter upper blade and 18" diameter lower blade maintain batch uniformity from start to finish of the pumping sequence. Both mixer and pump are controlled from a NEMA 4 weather-proof control panel which includes a thermal protection system that disengages the pump motor if a set temperature is exceeded.
