Product Description
Neptune JG Mixer
The Neptune JG Mixer is a heavy-duty gear-drive mixer for demanding industrial blending applications. Moreover, Neptune identifies the JG Series as its most powerful gear-driven mixer range.
The mixer handles liquid viscosities from 100 to 25,000 cP. In addition, suitable configurations can mix batches up to 5,000 gallons or 18,927 litres.
Therefore, the Neptune JG Mixer suits large chemical tanks, treatment systems and industrial process vessels where high torque and dependable circulation are essential.
Heavy Helical Gear Drive
The JG Series uses a heavy helical gear drive operating at approximately 350 rpm. Consequently, it produces greater mixing torque than a high-speed direct-drive mixer.
The lower output speed supports viscous liquids and demanding batch conditions. Moreover, the helical gear arrangement provides smooth power transmission.
As a result, the mixer can maintain effective circulation without relying on belts or clutches. In fact, Neptune specifically designs the drive without clutches that can slip, wear or require replacement.
Key Benefits of the Neptune JG Mixer
- Handles viscosities from 100 to 25,000 cP
- Supports tanks up to 5,000 gallons
- Heavy helical gear drive
- Standard operating speed of approximately 350 rpm
- Variable-speed options from 35 to 350 rpm
- Grease-filled gearbox
- No gearbox oil seal
- Permanently lubricated shaft bearings
- No drive clutches to slip or wear
- 316 stainless-steel shaft and propeller
- Optional rubber or PVC coatings
- Cast-aluminium housing
- Vibration-absorbing mounting pad
- Adjustable clamp-mount angle
- Cup-plate, flange and angle-riser options
- TEFC, explosion-proof and air motors
- Single or dual propeller arrangements
Together, these features support reliable mixing in demanding industrial environments. Moreover, the broad range of mounting and motor options simplifies integration with new or existing tanks.
Grease-Filled Gearbox
The gearbox contains grease rather than circulating oil. Therefore, the design eliminates a gearbox oil seal and reduces the risk of oil entering the process liquid.
In addition, the mixer uses sealed and pre-greased ball bearings. Consequently, these bearings do not require routine relubrication during their normal service life.
However, the gearbox itself is not completely maintenance-free. Neptune recommends replacing its grease annually. Therefore, regular inspection and scheduled grease maintenance remain important for long-term reliability.
Shaft and Propeller Options
Neptune supplies 316 stainless-steel shafts and propellers as standard. Moreover, optional rubber or PVC coatings are available for compatible corrosive services.
Available shaft lengths range from approximately:
- 48 inches or 1,219 mm
- Up to 72 inches or 1,829 mm
Meanwhile, available shaft diameters range from:
- ¾ inch or 19 mm
- Up to 1¼ inches or 32 mm
Propeller diameters range from approximately 10 to 16 inches, depending on the selected configuration. Therefore, users can match the shaft and impeller dimensions with the tank size and mixing duty.
Efficient Marine Propellers
The JG Series uses square-pitch marine propellers with a 1:1 pitch ratio. Consequently, the impeller generates strong axial liquid movement and effective top-to-bottom turnover.
Moreover, Neptune states that the propeller’s flow and power characteristics compare with efficient hydrofoil-style impellers.
Single or dual propellers are available. Therefore, larger or deeper tanks can use multiple impellers to improve circulation throughout the vessel.
Flexible Mounting Options
The standard JG Series supports clamp or cup-plate mounting.
Adjustable Clamp Mount
The clamp uses an indexed ball-and-socket arrangement. Therefore, operators can adjust the mixer’s angle of entry to improve the mixing pattern and reduce excessive vortexing.
Cup-Plate Mount
A fixed cup-plate mount provides a stable option for suitable tank structures. Moreover, it is standard on larger models and optional on selected lower-powered units.
Flange and Angle-Riser Mounts
The JGF Series provides flange mounting. Meanwhile, the JGR Series uses a fixed 10-degree angle-riser mount.
Consequently, users can select a mounting system that suits the tank opening, vessel design and required shaft position.
Motor and Speed Options
Available motor configurations include:
- Totally enclosed fan-cooled motors
- Explosion-proof Class I, Group D motors
- Air motors
- Variable-speed electric drives
Standard gear-driven models operate at approximately 350 rpm. Alternatively, variable-speed models operate from approximately 35 to 350 rpm.
Therefore, operators can adjust mixing intensity for changing liquid levels, viscosities or batch conditions.
Neptune JG Mixer Applications in the UAE
The Neptune JG Mixer suits:
- Water and wastewater treatment
