1.0 Safety
General safety rules and warnings

This manual contains important information concerning installation, operation, and proper
maintenance of your PSI Mud Agitator. To prevent injury to personnel or equipment
damage, this manual should be read by those responsible for the installation and
operation of the PSI Mud Agitator. In addition, the safety precautions below should be
followed at all times.

1. Follow your companies LOCK-OUT/TAG-OUT Procedures before performing any

maintenance.

2. Inspect equipment for damages, loose fittings, safety guards (if applicable), and
proper installation.

3. Wear proper PPE based on your companies Personal Protective Equipment and
Safety procedures.

4. When lifting equipment, ensure proper lift points are used. Use properly rated slings
that are capable of handling the equipment.

5. Do not use the equipment for anything but its intended use.

***NO ATTEMPT SHOULD BE MADE TO STOP A ROPE OR HOSE OR ANY

OTHER OBJECT ONCE IT HAS BEEN WRAPPED AROUND A MOVING SHAFT
AND/OR IMPELLER!!!

The gearbox on the Agitator has a pre-selected gear ratio to maximize the
suspension of solids in solution. This gear ratio provides an increase in torque that is
transmitted to the impeller. Any object that might fall into or be placed in the mud
tank runs the risk of being caught by and wrapped up by the agitator shaft or impeller
as they spin.

recipient thereof is a counterpart original copy thereof and is an “writing”, (b) an electronically stored
and reproduced copy of any such document shall be deemed to be legally sufficient evidence of the
terms of such document for all purposes.

Delivery; Risk of Loss

All sales are F.O.B. PSI’s plant or other point of shipment designated by PSI. Shipping dates are
estimates only which are not guaranteed and are based upon prompt receipt from Buyer of all
necessary shipping and other information. PSI reserves the right to make delivery in installments, all
installments to be separately invoice and paid for by Buyer when due per invoice, without regard to
subsequent deliveries. Delivery of equipment to a commercial carrier at PSI’s plant or other loading
pint shall constitute delivery to Buyer, and any risk of loss and further cost and responsibility thereafter
for claims, delivery, loss or damage, including, if applicable, placement and storage, shall be borne by
Buyer.

When equipment is delivered by PSI’s truck, unloading at Buyer’s dock shall constitute delivery to
Buyer. Claims for shortages or other errors in delivery must be made in writing to PSI within ten (10)
days after receipt of shipment and failure to give such notice shall constitute unqualified acceptance
and a waiver of all such claims by Buyer. Claims for loss or damage to equipment in transit by
common carrier must be made to the carrier and not to PSI. Freight and handling charges by PSI
may not reflect actual freight charges prepaid to the carrier by PSI due to incentive discounts earned
by PSI based upon PSI’s aggregate volume of freight tendered to a carrier or when a carrier must be
used which charges a rate which is different than the rate upon which PSI’s freight and handling
charges were based. When shipments are delivered in PSI’s private trucks, Buyer will be charged an
amount approximating the prevailing common carrier rate.

Excusable Delays; Force Majeure

PSI shall not be liable for any ordinary, incidental, or consequential loss or damage as a result of PSI’s
delay in or failure of delivery or installation due to (i) any cause beyond PSI’s reasonable control, (ii)
an act of God, act of the Buyer, embargo or other government act, authority, regulation or request,
fire, theft, accident, strike, slowdown, or other labor disturbance, war, riot, delay in transportation, or
(iii) inability to obtain necessary labor, material, components, or facilities.
Should any of the aforementioned events of force majeure occur, PSI, at its option, may cancel
Buyer’s order with respect to any undelivered equipment or extend the delivery date for a period equal
to the time lost because of delay. Notice of such election shall be given promptly to Buyer. In the
event PSI elects to so cancel the order, PSI shall be released of and from all liability for failure to
deliver the equipment, including, but not limited to, any and all claims on behalf of Buyer for lost
profits, or any other claim of any nature which Buyer might have.
If shipping or progress of the work is delayed or interrupted by Buyer, directly or indirectly, Buyer shall
pay PSI for all additional charges resulting therefrom.

3.0 Installation Procedure

Your companies LOCK-OUT/TAG-OUT Procedures should be followed before performing
any maintenance.

Dimensional Data
The weight data for all models of the Agitator is given in below. Again, the customer must
specify the “Tank Depth” in order to properly size the agitator shaft. Note that certified
drawings, if requested or required, provided with the equipment will take precedence over
any information in this manual. “Tank Depth” is obtained by measuring from the top of the
structure (beams, channels, etc.) on which the agitator base will be supported to the
bottom of the tank. Shaft length is typically sized to allow 3 inches of clearance from the
bottom of the tank to the bottom of the agitator shaft.

Lifting the Agitator

Lift the agitator only at the lift points provided. Use properly rated slings capable of
handling the weight of the equipment. In most cases, the impeller shaft will be installed
after the agitator base has been lifted into the tank but before the base has been securely
mounted. If the agitator is lifted with the impeller shaft installed, make sure that the shaft
coupling has been completely tightened and that the shaft is securely attached before
lifting. It is always good practice to remove the impeller shaft before removing an existing
agitator.

Before Installing the Agitator

Before installing the agitator, care should be taken to ensure that the structure on which
the agitator will be mounted is capable of withstanding both the static load and the
dynamic loads that will be transferred to the tank structure.

Installing the Agitator

Typically, neither the shaft nor the impeller will be installed before lifting the unit into place.
Some conditions, like limited head room above the tank, may require that the shaft be
installed after the unit has been lifted in place. Anti-seize compound should be applied to
all threaded fasteners.

Lift the unit where indicated and place in position on the mud tank using blocks to provide
at least 18 inches of clearance between the bottom of the shaft and tank bottom.

Before removing the blocks and fastening the base to the tank structure, the impeller
must be installed.

KEEP IN MIND THAT PROPER ALIGNMENT IS NECESSARY BEFORE BOLTING THE

AGITATOR DOWN. MOTORS AND GEARBOXES MUST NOT BE FORCED INTO
ALIGNMENT USING THE BOLTS. USE SHIMS IF THERE IS A GAP, NOT DOING DO
MAY CAUSE THE EQUIPMENT TO BIND AND LEAK OIL LEAKS OR MAY CAUSE
OTHER MECHANICAL ISSUES

Using the QD bushing and the key that are attached to the impeller, install the key and the
QD bushing first.

Locate the key so that when the impeller is installed, the distance from the bottom of the
canted blades to the tank bottom is roughly ¾ of the impeller diameter.

Example, if the impeller diameter is 36”, then the distance from the bottom of the tank
should be 27” when installation is complete.

Do not install impeller upside down; the product flow or direction should be downward or
toward the bottom of the tank.

Once the impeller has been installed, the blocks can be removed and the agitator should
be secured to the mud tank using the mounting bolt hole pattern shown on the
dimensional drawing for the unit.

Alternately, the agitator base can be welded directly to the mud tank. Check impeller
height and adjust if necessary.

BE SURE TO INSTALL THE BREATHER/VENT PLUG THAT HAS BEEN PROVIDED

WITH THE EQUIPMENT. FAILURE TO DO WILL CAUSE THE GEARBOX TO BUILD
UP INTERNAL PRESSURE OVER TIME AND POSSIBLY RESULT IN A LEAK FROM
THE SEAL.

CTX Coupling Installation

Check to insure that all components are available: Two half sections; one threaded & one
counter bored with through drill holes, two lock rings, one key, and eight socket head cap
screws.

Check that the output shaft and the impeller shaft are the same diameter.

Check the diameter of the coupling to ensure it matches the shafts.

Coat the threads of the socket head cap screws with a lubricant for prevention of
corrosion and easier removal of the fasteners later as needed.

Install one lock ring on the impeller shaft and one lock ring on the output shaft of the gear
box. [Rings must be oriented so that profile matches machined section on coupling.]

Align the gap of the lock rings with the keyway in the shafts so a key can be inserted in
both shafts.

Align the keyways in the shafts so a key can be placed in the keyway.

The gap between the gear box output shaft and the impeller shaft should be less than
1/8”.

Place the key in the aligned keyway. Place half of the key in each shaft.

Place the coupling section with the keyway over the key in the shafts. The section should
50/50 between the two shafts.

Place the other section on the shafts and align the holes.

Install the socket head cap screws in the assembly.

Starting with the end socket head cap screws, tighten up the screws to a
snug fit.

Starting with the end socket head cap screws and working to the middle,
tighten up the screws bringing the torque on the screws to 77 pound-feet
[ 924 pound-inches].

Bushing and Rigid Coupling (if applicable) Installation

TO INSTALL BUSHING:
1. Clean shaft, bore and outside of bushing, and hub bore of all oil, paint and dirt. File away any burrs.
2. Insert bushing in hub. Match the hole pattern, not threaded holes (each hole will be threaded on
one side only).
3.”LIGHTLY” oil setscrews and thread into those half-threaded holes indicated by ⊚on above
diagram.
4. Alternately torque setscrews to recommended torque setting in Table 2.
5. To increase gripping force hammer face of bushing using drift or sleeve. (Do Not Hit Bushing
Directly With Hammer) Re-torque Screws After Hammering.
6. Recheck screw torque after initial run-in, and periodically thereafter. Repeat steps 4 & 5 if loose.
DO NOT USE WORN HEX KEY WRENCHES.

INSTALLATION ON SHAFT:
1. Read “To Install Bushing,” steps 1 thru 3. Mount the female flange on the shaft end having the least
length available. This leaves the longest shaft end for the male flange which requires more room to
tighten the bushing.
2. Locate large end of bushing in female flange flush with end of shaft. Tighten bushing per steps 4
thru 6 under “To Install Bushing.”
3. Mount male flange on the other shaft. Locate the small end of the bushing flush with the end of the
shaft. Tighten bushing per steps 4 thru 6 under “To Install Bushing.”
4. Locate and align shafts to bring coupling halves together. Pilot diameters and flange surfaces
should mate fully against each other before bolting the flanges together.
5. A gap between the mating surfaces anywhere around the flanges indicates angular misalignment.
Difficulty in mating the pilot diameter indicates parallel misalignment. Shafts should be aligned with a
dial indicator to eliminate misalignment.
6. Insert and tighten screws “A” to the recommended torque given in Table 1. The screws are supplied
with the male flange assembly. It is necessary that the shafts be free to move endwise when
tightening screws. Using the screw to pull the flange together or into alignment without end float may
pre-load the system and cause bearing problems or damage to the coupling.

TO REMOVE BUSHING:
1. Remove all setscrews.
2. Insert setscrews in holes indicated by • on Figure 2. Loosen bushing by alternately tightening
setscrews.
3. To reinstall, complete all six (6) installation steps.

Electrical Installation
TURN OFF. LOCK OUT AND TAG OUT the electrical power supply to the agitator before working on
the agitator or opening the motor starter or junction box on the side of the motor. A qualified electrician
should make electrical connections inside the junction box on the side of the motor. Care should be
taken to make sure that voltage and frequency of the power supply match the motor nameplate
voltage and frequency.

Checking Motor Rotation

BEFORE STARTING OR EVEN “BUMPING’” THE MOTOR, CHECK THE SIGHT GLASS TO
MAKE SURE THAT GEARBOX IS PROPERLY LUBRICATED AND CHECK TO SEE IF THE
“BREATHER” VENT PLUG IS PROPERLY INSTALLED.

The electrical installation is not complete until the motor rotation has been checked. Reversing any
two legs on a three-phase power will reverse direction of rotation if necessary.

Checking and Filling Oil

All Agitators are shipped from the factory filled with the proper type and quantity of gear oil.
Nonetheless, gear units must be checked for oil level before startup. Oil level should be checked
using the sight glass on the side of the gearbox housing. If the equipment requires additional oil, use
o o
ISO 220 Gear Oil to refill at an Ambient Temperature of 4 C-40 C. Outside of this temperature range,
contact the factory. When mounted level, the oil level should hit the mid-point to 3/4 on the sight glass.
In addition to oil level, check the drop bearing for grease. A grease gun can be used to pump grease
into the zerk and through the grease tube down to the lower bearing. Mobil CM-P is recommended.
However, if not available, a moly-fortified grease should be used. Other recommended grease
characteristics include: washout resistant, broad temperature range, ISO 320, NLGI Grade II, Lithium
based.
Low Profiles are lubricated at the factory.

4.0 Startup Procedure

Before proceeding, check all fasteners to make sure that they are tight and that all parts are
secure prior to continuing.

Once installation is complete and proper lubrication levels have been confirmed, pressing the
start button on the motor starter will start the unit.

Note that motor starters are NOT supplied with agitators unless they have been ordered
separately.

As is good practice with all rotating equipment, check for unusual noise or vibration upon start
up.

As with centrifugal pumps, agitators will consume more horsepower as mud weight increases.
There is no adjustment of the agitator that is required to compensate for changes in drilling
conditions. During drilling operations, mud agitators are kept running at all times.

***Aeration of the Suction Tank- Adjusting the height of the impellers in the suction tank is
very important to prevent the agitators from introducing air that can cause mud pump problems.
If air entrainment starts causing problems with the mud pump, while drilling with acceptable mud
volume, impeller height should be lowered at the next opportunity, to minimize aeration.
Temporarily increasing mud volume, to prevent aeration, can usually solve the problem.

5.0 Routine Maintenance

Use proper lock-out/tag-out precautions when performing maintenance.

Once the unit is placed into full operation, a Preventative Maintenance Program should begin.
This program should include regular inspection set up on a periodic basis.

The Preventive Maintenance Program should include a general inspection of:

 The primary maintenance item for the Agitator is a weekly check of lubrication levels.
 This includes the oil level coating the gearing and the grease in the lower bearing. The oil
level can be easily checked through the sight glass on the side of the gearing section.
 The design of the grease pocket allows for the “old” grease to be expunged out of the
lower seal.
 You have the ability to add as much grease as you wish, however, the more you add to
the lower bearing, an equal amount of grease that is pushed out.
 It is recommended, in a normal operating range of mud levels, (i.e. below the output shaft
of the agitator) during your weekly maintenance check of the agitator, you take the
opportunity to put 3 pumps of a grease gun into the zerk on the side of the housing.
 At no time, should anyone other than a FACTORY TRAINED individual attempt any repair
on the gearing section.

The gears sets are so exactly positioned that without the proper tools and presses, it is
discouraged to attempt any field repair. If any field attempt is made to repair the gearing
section of the MAX2000® Gearbox, any warranty either implied or express is voided,
IMMEDIATELY. Please advise any and all personnel to observe this important statement.

Whining noise -Check the motor bearings -Replace the motor
Random noise (gear box) -Contamination in oil -Drain and replace oil
Rhythmic noise (Gear box) -Possible bur on the gear set -See next line...
A bur on a gear set has a tendency to correct itself over time. In the event that the noise is overly
obtrusive, remove gearbox and return to factory for evaluation.
Vibration -Assembly loose -Tighten all bolts
-Broken Weld (tank base) -Re-weld base to tank

6.0 Shutdown and Storage

6.1 Short Term Shutdown

Units may be deactivated and left on line for up to four months without special precautions.

1. LOCKOUT/TAGOUT ALL POWER.

2. Inspect all components for damage or wear.

6.2 Long Term Shutdown

1. Inspect all components for damage or wear.
2. Remove the breather/vent plug and place a set screw in its place. This keeps
condensation out of the gearbox.
3. If the agitator has been in operation for longer than 6 months, then drain the oil from the
gearbox and replace with fresh oil.
4. If possible keep the equipment covered to help protect against weathering.
5. Spray down any non-painted metal, such as shafts and couplings with a rust protectant.

7.0 Technical Manual Contents

7.1 General Description

Agitators or “mud mixers” serve an important role in the surface treatment of drilling fluids.
Using an impeller that promotes both axial and radial flow will lower mud costs and improve
mud properties. Unlike centrifugal pumps or sub-guns, impeller mixers are relatively low shear
and low energy devices making them easy to maintain and inexpensive to operate. Using low
shear mixers to suspend and mix mud additives minimizes particle size degradation and
polymer shear.

Properly sized agitators serve three purposes:

1. Mixers ensure that mud additives are homogeneously mixed. This prevents spot over
treatment of chemicals, dilution water or weighting agents.
2. Agitators keep the active mud system moving when the mud pumps are disengaged and
will prevent the pits from “gelling”.
3. When drilling with weighted mud, properly selected agitators will keep the weighting agents
in suspension and minimize any tendencies for solids to settle in corners or dead spots.

When deciding which Impeller and Gearbox to use, the following diagram can be used.

GEARBOX
A rugged cast iron gearbox houses either a double or triple reduction helical bevel gearing set that is
so precisely ground that there is a minimal amount of back lash in the gear sets. Vertical units are
double reduction inline helical and Right angle units are triple reduction helical-bevel. This feature
eliminates a “slamming” effect of the gears at start up, promoting longer life. Each gear set is 98%
o
efficient. The internal gears are lubricated with oil. For ambient temperatures below –23 F or above
o
140 F a synthetic lubricant should be substituted. A unique feature of the MAX2000® Agitator is the
greased lower bearing. This lower bearing can be maintained, greased, from the topside of the tank,
eliminating the need for in-tank inspections of the lower bearing. This design feature provides a barrier
layer of grease that can be expunged out the lower seal; which allows the lower bearing to be in
contact with good, uncontaminated lubricant at all times. The lower seals are arranged to
accommodate the grease pocket and makes for a four-tier layer of protection for the gearing. All four
of these levels must be breeched prior to the gearbox losing its oil:

1. Lower seal-drop bearing

2. Grease pocket
3. Upper seal-drop bearing
4. Lower seal in gearbox

An external oil sight glass has been provided so that the oil level can be checked at a single glance.
Vent plugs are supplied, installed in the gearbox housing, to maintain a homeostatic internal pressure,
preventing a pressure build up that could blow out an oil seal.

MOTORS
Explosion proof motors are designed to withstand pressure washing and exposure to corrosive fluids
without bearing contamination. Motors are available with either a foot mount design or a NEMA C-face
input. The foot mount or “T” frame motors are mounted using flexible coupling between the motor and
gearbox, for ease of alignment. The NEMA C motors bolt to the gearbox housing and no alignment
issues are seen.

IMPELLERS
Impellers create optimal suspension and mixing results from the axial and radial flow patterns. Using a
0 0
60 , 45 , an axial or a hydrofoil impeller the optimal situation can be created for your application. In
addition to the standard welded impeller, the MAX2000® Agitator is offered with a “bolt-on” design
blade in carbon steel and the 310 series stainless. On the welded impellers a QD bushing is provided
to allow for adjustment of the height of the impeller.
