Vaughan Chopper Pumps – ROTAMIX Mechanical Hydraulic Mixing

Vaughan’s Rotamix® System is today’s most cost effective means of mechanical hydraulic mixing, consisting of an engineered arrangement of floor-mounted nozzles fed by a Vaughan® Chopper Pump. Using custom engineering software, each application is analyzed and sized by Vaughan® in order to achieve the desired mixing effect. The Rotamix® system may be applied in circular, rectangular, oval tanks and basins and other unique process configurations such as egg-shaped digesters, CSO tunnels and pump stations.

The Rotamix® System incorporates several basic principles of physics and hydraulics, including uniform field of flow, vortical field of flow, induced flow and surface contact. Combined together, this unique mixing system optimizes solids and bacteria contact while creating an even distribution of mixing energy.
