TheX series industrial gear units are ideal for heavy duty applications and are typically used in production processes. The robust and universal gear unit series can be optimally adjusted to the relevant application conditions thanks to finely stepped torque ratings. The universal modular system sets standards for availability and ensures an extremely broad range of application options. The accessories and the agitator drive's special equipment features guarantee the functionality and reliability of the energy transfer for operation in a potentially explosive atmosphere. The drive is included in Group II, Category 2, in line with Directive 94/9/EC, generally referred to as ATEX.
The following adaptations were made to the industrial gear units for use and operation in the reactor:
