Helical bevel gearing mud agitator compared to worm gearing ones,
it runs more smoothly, more efficient operation, and longer life. The unit’s unique lower
bearing configuration allows maintenance from to top of the tank,
eliminating the need for in-tank inspections. Lower bearing seals
are arranged to maintain a grease pocket supplemented by four rings
that ensure the gears are continually bathed in uncontaminated
lubricant.
Mud agitator is a vital important equipment for drilling mud tank,
that is used to keep solids in drilling fluids suspending, no
deposit in the mud tank bottom. AIPU solids control manufactures
different power agitators for oil and gas customers. The agitator
is produced according to API standards.
Usually, the agitator is worked with a mud gun can achieve better
mixing performance.

Impeller | Dual impellers |
Motor | Explosion proof |
Usage | Drilling mud system |
There are different models APMA3, APMA7.5, APMA11, APMA15,
PMA18,PMA22,etcetera. Presently, the helical bevel geared ones are
usually APMA7.5. While the APMA15 is geared with a helical worm
reducer. For mud agitators, we produce gearbox driven by 5.5kw,
7.5kw, 11kw, 15kw, 18.5kw, 22kw, and 30kw motors.
And the agitators can be the horizontal type or the vertical type.
According to users’ preferences, we’ll provide different
customization services. The impellers can be a single layer or
double layer. The blades are the canted type for better agitation
performance.
Drilling mud agitators are popular auxiliary equipment used in
drilling mud system. In oilfield, mud tanks are the platform for a
whole solids control system. On tanks, there are shakers, mud
cleaner, centrifuge, pumps, agitators, and so on
Mud tanks are used to reserve drilling fluids. During whole well
drilling, we need drilling mud and we maintain and process drilling
mud for a better property and save drilling cost. Mud agitators
will help us to mix or agitate the drilling fluids. Under the
impellers’ rotation, the useful solids will suspend without
sediment
We know the agitator is consisting of motor and reducer. Combining
them together will get a proper turn speed. Under proper TOR the
drilling fluids will be at a high property for better circulation
throughout mud system

Horizontal worm gear type agitator, this is the most popular
agitator used in oil and gas mud tank because it’s cost effective.
There is coupler options for agitator to protect gear or options
without coupler for saving cost.
Horizontal bevel gear type agitator, this is a very good option for
larger torque and minimum footprint. The bevel gear is much higher
torque compares worm gear. Better performance, higher cost.
Vertical agitator, this is well used for vertical tank with small
footprint but higher height.
AIPU supply mud agitator for above options as per buyer’s request
and cost budget. Other than agitator, AIPU supply a series
equipment for mud tank or a whole tank with all tank attachment.
According to mud tank specification and drilling mud
property(volume, dimension, SG)
Confirm the exact model and quantity we need (usually 3 meters per
set)
Confirm the detail specs of impeller and shaft per tank size(tank
height/depth)
To check which type reducer you prefer(Helical worm, helical bevel)
Other special requirements (Reduce ratio, installation position,
color)
At AIPU you can get many flexible configuration and solution on the
equipment/system. Besides above listed information, some
configuration is customizable. For any question or demand, just
feel free to contact us.
