Details of equipment: Vertical mixer drive Details of original drive: Eurodrive type vertical gearmotor with solid output shaft using rigid coupling to interface the drive to the mixer’s impeller shaft. Assorted sizes ranging from 5 HP through 25 HP motors, all with 25:1 ratio gearing and Class II Service Factor. Details of Dorris replacement drive: Modified 315SM25 SMR with vertical ‘p’ face input and vertical hollow output shaft which "swallows" the mixer’s impeller shaft. Drive is equipped with true dry well construction to prevent possibility of oil leakage down the output shaft and oil level switch to shut down motor in case of low oil condition. How has the Dorris drive performed, enhanced, simplified, condensed, etc. the customer’s overall drive package? One drive fits all motor sizes. Performs superbly and eliminates the very expensive LSS rigid coupling which had been used to interface the drive to the impeller shaft. The dry well also makes the drive leak proof which was not available in vertical gearmotor type drives. The drive and application is a real good match. Why did Dorris get the order? Superior design
