Lightnin 700/800

Lightnin 700/800 is used in large vessels, sludge, mineral processing, chemical production and other high-load mixing duties when very high torque, long shafts and large impellers are required to move difficult fluids or maintain suspension in large process vessels. For engineers, buyers and maintenance teams, the key question is not only mixer power but whether the selected drive, shaft, impeller and mounting arrangement will create the required circulation, shear, suspension or dispersion in the actual vessel.

The product is built around a heavy-duty high-torque mixer drive engineered for large top-entry installations, with robust bearings, gearing and structural support for continuous duty. This construction allows the mixer to be configured around vessel geometry, fluid properties, duty cycle and the process objective instead of treating all mixing duties as the same application.

ITT Flow Technologies currently highlights Lightnin Series 700/800 for high-torque water and wastewater duties such as sludge mixing and aeration, where long bearing life and robust operation are important. These verified characteristics should be used together with tank dimensions, liquid density and viscosity, solids or gas loading, operating temperature and required batch result when selecting the final configuration. AxFlow can help check the duty and identify the correct Lightnin configuration.

Heavy-duty construction is intended to protect uptime in high-value processes; correct duty sizing reduces structural overload, inefficient mixing and premature wear on shafts, bearings and gearing. Correct selection also supports predictable spare-parts planning and reduces the risk of downtime caused by under-sized mechanical components or an impeller that does not match the process.
