Jet Pump & Tank Eductor Sizing Experience
More than 50 years of hands-on experience sizing and locating jet pumps and tank eductors for industrial applications worldwide.
Why Experience Matters
Does talking to most suppliers of jet pumps and/or tank mixing equipment leave you frustrated? A good portion of the available product literature they provide offers faulty or misleading suggestions for sizing jet pumps and/or tank mixing eductors.
An offer based on inexperience could result in a project designed to fail from the very beginning, ultimately leading to more time and money devoted to troubleshooting your new installation instead of moving onto the next project.
"Sizing a tank eductor is only half the battle — location is equally important."
Because there are so many different types of tank mixing applications, we don't attempt to follow the competition with their "one size fits all" mentality — it absolutely does not work. Each tank eductor application requires a review to ensure the correct selection of equipment and the correct location of that equipment.
Our Expertise
More than 50 years of experience in tank mixing applications
Tanks in sizes up to one million barrel (42 million gallons) capacity
Tank mixing eductors discharge five times the motive flow — vs. four times for most competitors
Manifold design capability for optimal eductor placement
Detailed drawings and bills of material for eductor manifolds
Time is money.
Our eductors will do the job faster using less power than our competition, providing significant long-term cost effects.
What We Need to Size Your Application
1Sizing Parameters
In order to properly size a tank eductor application we will need:
- •Tank shape: cylindrical, rectangular, and bottom style
- •Tank dimensions
- •Purpose: blending, solids suspension, steam heating, or other
- •Tank contents: specific gravity & viscosity of the components
- •Operation: batch or continuous
- •Blend cycle time required (defined as three turnovers)
2Location & Installation
Equally important is the installed location(s). It is also critical to correctly locate the eductors according to the application. Northeast Controls, Inc. offers manifold design capability to achieve this goal.
We can provide the detailed drawings and bills of material for the eductor manifold and define the positioning of the manifold within the tank to optimize the eductor(s) performance.
We also offer a line of Side Entry Mixers
Our side entry tank mixers feature a low overhang design that makes them self-supporting on the tank man-way. No tie-rods, base plates, or foundation supports are required — greatly simplifying installation while providing a very low vibration unit.
