Surface to Surface Introduces Mixers
With its small footprint, the M-1500L was designed and manufactured as a narrower version of the M-1500 dual tank system that allows the HDD contractor two methods of mixing for Bentonite mud requirements.
This system allows the operator to mix 750 gallons of full yield mud in less than eight minutes, while holding 750 gallons of water reserve in the second tank for the next mix, or mix 1,500 gallons of full yield mud in less than 16 minutes, in one large batch. The operator controls the two methods of mixing by changing the direction of flows through the piping connections using the manual operated full flow valves.
The vacuum port located in the mixing tee has the ability to draw water from the second tank when being used as a reservoir and the drill fluid can then be sent to the drilling rig with-out the use of a second pump. 800.567.0978, stsmixers.com
