    Product InformationM10320 R2

    IntroductionHMA series agitators are heavy-duty mechanical mixers for viscous fluids speciallydesigned for seal type tanks. Several models are available to meet a variety of mixingneeds.

    The naming convention for these models is:

    HMA-X

    where X = the horsepower of the unit. For example, HMA-20 is the 20 hp mud agitatorfor seal type tanks.

    Each HMA series agitator uses a pipe-spool shaft and impeller(s) to maintain ahomogeneous mixture of liquids and solids within a tank. Impellers have contourblades (axial flow), and may be installed in multiple configurations to provide the

    desired results. The impeller shaft is suspended from and attached to the output shaftof the low-profile, skid-mounted gearbox. The gearbox uses a worm-worm gear drivesystem to reduce the rotational speed of the explosion-proof motor to drive theimpeller(s).

    HMA series agitators are available in models ranging from 25 to 40 horsepower, andcan be seal base unit or shaft seal units. Impellers range from 54 inches (1372 mm)diameter to 84 inches (2134 mm) diameter.

    Unit description

    General description

    Each HMA consists of a shaft-mounted impeller, motor, gearbox, and mounting base.Electrical controls, special coatings, custom bases, and other options are available.

    Motor

    The motors used on Brandt mud agitators are explosion proof, T-frame, three-phaseelectric motors directly coupled to the gearbox using a flexible coupling with a solidsteel guard. Motors are available for most voltage/frequency requirements. Otherelectrical code styles and temperature ratings are also available.

    M10320 R2Product Information

    Gearbox

    The gearbox is a triple reduction worm-worm gear drive, reducing the motor speed(900 rpm @ 60 Hz) to the agitator speed (30 rpm) in a single 30:1 reduction. Thegearbox contains an output shaft, two seals, and four to six bearings in addition to theworm-worm gear. The bearings are spaced to minimize shaft vibration and deflection,and seals are readily obtainable standard sizes. Unlike many competing agitators,Brandt’s gearbox requires no manual lubrication of the bottom output bearing.

    Mounting base

    The motor and gearbox are assembled on a common base with heavy gradefasteners. The base is sand blasted to white metal, primed with zinc, and finish coatedwith urethane. Special coatings are available as an option.

    ImpellerImpellers are contour blade style, and may be installed in multiple configurations toprovide the desired results.

    Impellers range from 54 inches (1372 mm) to 84 inches (2134 mm) in diameter.

    Larger custom-designed blades and mixing systems are also available. See Chapter8 to find the Brandt office nearest you.

    Impeller speed is 30 rpm for 60 Hz applications.

    Contour-blade impellers

    On contour blade impellers ( Figure 2-1 ), the blades are designed with a variable pitchreducing the horsepower requirements and inducing less shear to the mud. Contour

    blades move liquid downward to the bottom of the tank, along the tank bottom towardthe tank walls, and then up the tank wall. All fluid in the tank is mixed continuously,and the same consistency is maintained in all parts of the tank.

    Field experience has confirmed that this design provides the most homogeneousmixture in the widest range of installations. Fluid agitation minimizes fluid controlproblems caused by inconsistent mixtures.

    Figure 2-1. Contour blade impellers promote axial

    flow with less shear to the mud.

    Impeller placement

    Contour blade impellers should be placed on the shaft so that the distance betweenthe bottom of the tank and the lower edge of the blades is equal to .75 times thediameter of the impeller.

    Impeller shaft

    HMA standard impeller shafts are manufactured of eight-inch pipe spools. Theimpeller shaft is coupled to the gearbox with a rigid coupling.

    Shaft length is determined by tank depth. When ordering impellershafts, always specify the actual tank depth. Tank depth is defined asthe distance from the bottom of the tank to where the agitator ismounted.

    Bottom shaft stabilizer

    A bottom shaft stabilizer is required to reduce side loading on the gearbox bearings.The stabilizer also protects the agitator shaft and impeller when auxiliary equipment iscarried inside the mud tank during rig moves.

    Options

    There are several options available for HMA-series units. Popular options includespecial paint finishes, remote starters, other electrical controls, and special dutymotors. Contact your Brandt sales representative to discuss which options may beright for your application. See Chapter 8 to find the Brandt office nearest you.

    InstallationM10320 R2

    Installation

    Proper mounting location

    Be sure the mounting location is level, free from obstructions, and will provide a stableplatform for the unit during normal operation.

    Mounting fasteners

    Attach the unit to its mounting surface with heavy-duty threaded fasteners, one ateach corner of the base. As an option, the base may be welded directly to themounting surface.

    Proper electrical serviceCheck all electrical components for proper voltage, frequency, duty rating, andadherence to applicable electrical codes.

    Oil fill breather

    The HMA ships with the oil fill breather cap installed on the gearbox.

    Impeller rotation

    The impeller should rotate clockwise when viewed from above.

    If the impeller rotates in the wrong direction, switch any two lead wires at the startercontrols or at the motor. To switch wires at the motor, refer to the wiring diagram onthe HMA name plate or inside the junction box cover.

    Disconnect power to the electrical circuit before beginning anywork on the electrical controls or motor rotation.Failure to do so may result in severe personal injury or death!

    M10320 R2Installation

    Impeller shaft alignment

    Check the impeller shaft coupling regularly for proper alignment. As shown in Figure3-2 , the impeller shaft should not touch any portion of the stabilizer (if installed) whenthe HMA is not running.

    Figure 3-2. Impeller shaft alignment

    Long term storageStore the HMA in a cool, dry place.

    The equipment is packaged to prevent corrosion for a period of twelve (12) months ifstored indoors. During shipping, all openings are covered or capped to protect theinside from dust, rust and moisture. Threaded connections, couplings and shafts arecoated with corrosion inhibitor.

    If the equipment is to be subjected to prolonged shutdown or storage, the followingsteps should be taken to ensure that the unit does not degrade during storage.

    Motors are shipped from the factory pre-lubricated. Rotate the shafts thirty (30)revolutions once per month to keep the bearings in the motor and speedreducer lubricated.

    Place protective caps over all threads to further guard against contamination.

    Keep temperature as consistent as possible to prevent condensation.

    If the motor is equipped with space heaters, connect them to the appropriatevoltage and hertz power.

    If unit is stored for more than one (1) year, add grease before start-up.

    Some contact between shaft and stabilizer is normal duringoperation, but immediately correct any hard striking.

    Inspection

    The performance of a parallel helical gear drive reducer depends on the quality oflubricating oil.

    Component Check

    Gearbox temperature The performance of a worm gear drive reducer depends onthe quality of lubricating oil. A worm gear runs hot duringthe first days of operation. During normal operation, there isno cause for alarm unless the temperature exceeds 200°F

    (93°C) or 100°F above ambient temperature.

    Oil level Check oil level at the oil level plug located on the side of thegear reducer.See Figure 6-1 on page 6-4 to locate the plug.

    Check oil level with the unit off. Oil should be level with thebottom of the oil level plug-hole.See Figure 6-1 on page 6-4 to locate the plug.

    Oil fill breather Visually check that oil fill breather is free from any mud orother material.See Figure 6-1 on page 6-4 to locate the plug.

    Oil seals Visually check for signs of leaks or visible damage.

    Motor Visually check condition of fan guard.

    Be sure that motor cooling fins are clear and free of mud orother material.

    Impeller shaft coupling Visually check to ensure coupling is tight and all fastenersare in place.

    Impeller Check condition of impeller for bent, damaged, or wornblades.

    Periodically check keyed coupling to ensure it is tight andall fasteners are in place.

    Bottom shaft stabilizer(if installed)

    Visually inspect condition of stabilizer for wear or otherdamage.

    Motor/reducer coupling Visually inspect coupling, coupling insert, and couplingguard for damage.

    Bearing Lubrication

    Grease the gearbox top bearing every 100 operating hours with recommendedbearing grease. About a 3/8 in (9mm) ball of grease is sufficient.

    Grease the motor every three months.

    The greases shown in this manual are given as examples of appropriate greases. Anyother grease that meets the standards of the National Lubricating Grease Institute(NLGI) is acceptable.

    Oil changes

    The initial oil fill should be changed after 100 operating hours (approximately twoweeks) and then at 1800-hour intervals. In practice, change every 6-12 monthsdepending on operating conditions. The companies and oil shown below are typical.Any other oil that meets the standards of the American Gear ManufacturersAssociation (AGMA) 7C and 8C is acceptable.

    If you use synthetic oils, you may double the operating hours between changes.

    Do not over grease.

    To change the gearbox oil

    Verify location of the oil drain plug, oil fill breather cap, and the oil level indicator foryour HMA-series model in Figure 6-1 .

    1. Switch the unit off.

    2. Remove the oil drain plug.

    3. Drain the used oil into a suitable container and replace the oil drain plug.

    4. Remove the oil breather.

    5. Fill the gearbox with the correct amount of acceptable oil. The gear reducer isproperly filled when oil just begins to flow out of the oil level hole.

    6. Replace the oil breather.

    Figure 6-1. Location of plugs

    Gear reducer oil capacity

    Gear reducer capacity is 16 gallons (61 liters).

    Gear oil is extremely slippery and sticky. Gear reducers are mosteasily filled using a pump or pressurized lubrication gun. Be sure todispose of used oil properly and clean area of any spilled oil aftercompleting this procedure.
