The mixing-averaging unit is designed for jet mixing of cement slurry in a container by mixing it with a belt screw, as well as recirculating it with a centrifugal pump. The unit provides the possibility of averaging and simultaneous delivery of cement slurry by centrifugal pumps to the pumping unit for subsequent injection into the well. The unit allows simultaneous delivery of the slurry from one container and preparation of the slurry in another.
The product is designed to work in temperate and cold climates according to GOST 15150-69, climatic version of NF at ambient temperatures from minus 50 to +40 °C, storage up to minus 69 °C. The container consists of two compartments in the lower part is made in the form of a semicircle, with a technological bias. The total Trip tank is 20 m3. The Trip tank of one compartment is 10 m3. Augers for mixing slurrys are installed in the tank compartments. The heating system provides the possibility of additional heating from the mobile steam heater or steam line of the drilling rig.
The bulk storage tank provides level gauges for each compartment of the tank, the tank is also equipped with a ladder for lifting service personnel to the work site, technological hatches for servicing components and mechanisms in the tank, two outlet collectors for taking cementing slurry from the compartments of the tank and draining water after washing it.
The service platform is installed behind the chassis cab in front of the tank. A hydraulic mixer (ejector mixer) is installed on the site.
This unit is equipped with two centrifugal pumps NC-100R1 (4"X5") with a Trip tank of up to 3.5 m3/min each with a hydraulic drive (hydraulic motors).
The unit is painted with polyurethane-based paints.
All components to be painted are stripped to pure metal in accordance with the specifications before being primed.

The stirrers are driven from the power take-off box installed on the transfer case of the car, through the driveshaft, gearbox and chain transmission. The speed rate of the stirrers is regulated by changing the engine speed and shifting gears in the gearbox.
The centrifugal pump has a hydraulic drive, from the power take-off box installed on the right side of the chassis gearbox, has an independent activation from the stirrer drive, the rotation speed is regulated by changing the engine speed.
