Milton Roy Mixing has successfully developed two ranges of floating agitators, Helifloat® and Turboxal®, which work effectively for the suspension and homogenization of solid particles in water treatment basins or tanks.
These agitators offer numerous advantages, including:
- Installation without the need to lay a specific structure for the agitator
- Light equipment with easy handling and quick installation
- Operation at variable levels with the same efficiency
- Minimal maintenance due to standard parts
- Wide treatment area (approx. 12 m diameter)
Main application of the Helifloat agitator
Helifloat efficiently holds solid particles in suspension in basins or water treatment tanks.
Operating principles
Helifloat’s high-power propeller (SABRE) channels the liquid jet toward the bottom of the basin, up to 7 m deep.
Setup of the agitator
Some basins do not allow the adaptation of a vertical agitator due to large size. Since it is floating, the Helifloat agitator does not require a mounting device. Several Helifloat agitators can be implemented in large-dimension basins.
Fixation is performed using simple cables to avoid gyration of the equipment.
Helifloat is a floating agitator that includes:
- A geared motor group
- Parts that protect moving parts from foreign matter
- One hydrofoil (SABRE) propeller
Main application of the Turboxal agitator
Turboxal improves the efficiency of injecting pure oxygen into aeration basins of shallow water (less than 5 m) or aerated lagoons, or in pools in which the installation of submersible equipment is difficult.
Process of the agitator
Patented jointly with Air Liquide, Turboxal increases the capacity of treatment, improves sludge settling, reduces formation odors, and homogenizes mixing.
Widely used in water treatment, Turboxal is also used in paper, food processing, and chemical industries.
Turboxal enables operation with low oxygen requirements, minimizing consumption of pure oxygen and operating costs.
Turboxal is a floating oxygenator that includes:
- A geared motor group
- Three unsinkable floating components that protect moving parts from foreign matter
- An impeller utilizing a vertical shaft
- A part to protect the structure, guiding the flow depth
