Glossary
Certificate of decontamination
A certificate of decontamination certifies that
the submersible mixer has been properly
cleaned and decontaminated to eliminate any
environmental and health hazards arising from
components in contact with the fluid handled.
Fluid
In accordance with the intended use of the
submersible mixer, the term "fluid" (also
referred to as the fluid handled) refers to the
fluid the mixer is operated in, i.e. generally
municipal or industrial waste water and
sludges. The fluid is described in greater detail
by means of the gas and solids content, the
content and length of fibrous substances, its
chemical composition and temperature.
Submersible mixer
Submersible mixers are mixing units with open
axial propeller hydraulics and a dry submersible
motor.
