SHEAR HOPPERS

HIGH SHEAR HOPPERS

The shear hopper diffuses additives into your materials by means of high velocity, suction, turbulence and recirculation. Additives can be added manually and liquids can be added from a drum or tank. It requires fewer polymer or surfactant and up to 50% less bentonite. The PSI shear mixer is both a radial premixer — eliminating clumping, fisheyes and microgel — and mixing eductor — providing vigorous mixing and robust shearing.

FEATURES

PSI Shear Mixers are designed to move large volumes of materials rapidly while drilling. They pump and introduce liquid and/or other additives into the materials, thereby sustaining high output.
