Installation of venturi hopper

What should be paid attention to when installing the Venturi hopper? The editor of HL Petroleum will give you a brief introduction.

The pressure loss after the Venturi hopper is completed is very large, so that the drilling fluid can be directly discharged into the drilling fluid tank after mixing through the jet funnel. The hopper is usually installed on the top of the drilling fluid tank (i.e., high-position installation, so that the mixed drilling fluid can be discharged directly into the drilling fluid tank without climbing.

After the Venturi hopper is installed at a high position, it is necessary to design a hoist or cantilever crane to lift the drilling fluid material to the top of the drilling fluid tank.

When the Venturi hopper is installed at a low position, a reasonable climbing angle should be designed, and the outlet should be directly connected to the drilling fluid tank to prevent the drilling fluid from overflowing from the funnel.

The Venturi hopper is usually directly driven by an electric mixing pump for mixing. When the mixing effect is not good, it is necessary to adjust the distance between the jet hopper nozzle and the outlet end face to achieve the best mixing effect.

We need to consider the above-mentioned matters when installing the Venturi hopper. If you have other questions about the mud hopper, you can contact us online or by phone. Email: sales@hlsolidscontrol.com
