Philadelphia Mixing Solutions announces enhancements to its Cutlass side-entry mixers to include the BSE-R fixed-angle and the BSE-R swivel models. The progression of these mixers answers the call to recent changes in industry standards and creates a solution specialized for prevalent concerns in the petroleum market. This development in mixer technology was specifically designed for maintenance, reliability and operations and promoting energy conservation.

The Cutlass BSE-R mixer design advancements feature a cartridge-style mechanical seal, allowing more room to access and maintain bearings and seals. The shaft is precision-machined to reduce vibration and to increase bearing life. Vibration and temperature sensors can be mounted on pads cast into the housing to monitor the unit while in operation. The drive is protected by a rigid belt cover with quick-release captive fasteners and a polycarbonate viewing window for checking the belt.
