Side Entry Agitators for FGD HWL
The EKATO HWL FGD side entry agitator was specially designed to be used in absorption towers of flue gas desulfurization plants. Agitators are designed and manufactured for fatigue resistance, based on the rated power of the motor and the maximum dynamic loads. The side entry HWL-FGD is the world’s best-selling side entry agitator for absorption towers in flue gas desulfurization plants. The reliability of these extremely robust agitators is proven by more than 1,500 FGD plants.
Different types of gearbox (trapezoidal, helical, conical belt …)
Mechanical Seal EKATO 42L: Lubricated single-acting mechanical seal for FGD agitators with side entry. This cartridge type mechanical seal is specifically designed for highly abrasive and corrosive media.
Closing device: The closing device allows maintenance of the mechanical seal, or even replace it completely, without closing or emptying the absorption tower.
EKATO Wingjet impeller: Developed specifically for use in absorbers for flue gas desulfurization. With its geometry optimized by CFD and its molded blades, this impeller offers the following advantages:
- Maximum efficiency
- Combined axial flow
- Increase in pumping capacity
- “Winglets” suppressing the tip vortex for reduced impact corrosion, longer operational life and reduced maintenance costs.
The impeller is built with Super Duplex materials, highly resistant to corrosion and abrasion.
Diameters available: 800 – 2000 mm
