The MAX2000® Agitator features a rugged cast iron gearbox that houses helical bevel gearing. The gear sets are precisely ground to prevent all but the slightest amount of backlash in the gear sets. This feature promotes longer life by eliminating the high impact forces generated when the unit is energized at start-up. Each helical bevel gear stage is 98% efficient. A typical worm gear set is only 85% efficient, since it loses most of its efficiency through the generation of heat.

Internal gears and bearings are lubricated with mineral oil. When the ambient temperature drops below 23ºF or rises above 140ºF, a synthetic lubricant should be substituted. A unique feature of the MAX2000® Agitator is the lower bearing, which can be maintained from the top of the tank. This feature eliminates the need for in-tank inspections of the lower bearing, and also provides a barrier of grease that can be expunged out the lower seal. The lower seals are arranged to accommodate the grease pocket and make for a four-tier layer of protection for the gearing. The end result means the lower bearing stays in contact with good, uncontaminated lubricant at all times. All four of these levels must be breached prior to loss of oil in the gearbox.

The 6" Mud Hopper by VIDA BEM is a rugged low-pressure, high-volume unit that makes it easy to accurately mix solid additives into drilling fluids. Driven at 40-60 PSI by the mud system’s centrifugal pumps, drilling fluid is forced through the hopper jet at a rate of 1100-1400 GPM. An integrated sack table gives handlers a safe, stable platform for easier pours into the hopper’s receiving basin. A 6" butterfly valve allows adjustable feed rates of 400-600 lbs of solids per minute.

The Mud Hopper and base plate are constructed of high quality plate steel. All surfaces are painted with industrial-grade epoxy to resist wear and corrosion. A second coat of UV-resistant polyurethane is then added in the color of your choice. The unit is delivered fully assembled with sack table, receiving basin, jet nozzle, venturi and adjusting valve for a quick and easy installation.
