Split Collar: Your side entry mixer will come supplied with a split collar you will use to
replace the mechanical seal when performing maintenance on the seal. This item
will not be part of the initial assembly installation. Set this item aside and save it for
use in future maintenance procedures.
The shut off bushing will
be set to operate with
a gap between the
bushing and shut off
port. Do not operate
the mixer with the shut
off bushing engaged.
Shaft Retraction Devise: Your side entry mixer will come supplied with a shaft
retractor to be used as an aid in the procedure to remove the mechanical seal.
You won't need this item as part of the initial assembly installation. You can set it
aside and save it for future maintenance procedures.
Your side entry mixer will
come supplied with an A-
frame support stand or an
adjustable pipe leg stand.
This support must be fasten
to the mixer pedestal and
then to the floor beneath.
Make sure the support sits
level and doesn't't push the

SIDE ENTRY
Sealed, flange mounted mixers that mount to the tank with the with the mixing shaft horizontally are known as "Side
Entry" mixers. This includes Cleveland's models: SDM, SDS, SRXTM and SRXTS. The first "S" represents side entry, then the
model number and the last letter in the name, either S or M represents "M" for mechanical seal and "S" for packing
gland.
Before mounting the mixer you will need to check the following: (1) The tank walls and tank nozzle construction are
strong enough to support the weight of the mixer and the forces the mixer will produce. (2) The tank nozzle flange
matches the mixer's mounting flange. (3) The tank nozzle is angled tot he requirements of the assembly drawing
(typically 7-10° angle). (4) The ground/floor beneath the mixer is concrete or of equal rigidity to support the weight of
the mixer with the mixer support stand. (5) If your mixer seal requires a seal flush (most double mechanical seals will
require a flush) you have the necessary fluid or gas piped to the seal.
Once the mixer is assembled to the tank. It's good practice to double check the impeller and shut off assemblies on
the inboard side of the tank; since side entry mixers are typically mounted at the bottom of very large volume tanks.
There's a good chance you will not have access to the inboard components once the tank is filled.
