Piston Operated Mixers (POM) with Water Bath Vaporizers
   
Model Numbers are WB-200 / POM-30 to WB-3000 / POM-60. The first part of the model number indicates the vaporizer capacity in gallons per hour, the second part indicates the mixer size (30 - 40 - 60). All systems combine horizontal water bath vaporizers (WB series) with our patented Piston Operated Mixer (POM-series). They can be ordered for installation as individual units (water bath vaporizer and mixer within 15 ft. of each other), or as a very compact module unit (see options), with the mixer installed on top of the vaporizer. Both versions are equally reliable and have set the standard for value, reliability, ease-of-use, low maintenance, and high availability, in many different applications in many different countries, surpassing other high-capacity / high-pressure mixing concepts by far.

To select the correct vaporizer/mixer combination, first determine the required vaporizer capacity by adding up the connected load. Including a safety factor of 1.1 to 1.3, select the vaporizer model.

The capacity of the POM mixer depends on its configuration and the system pressure. In the table below, after selecting the vaporizer model, move to the right to find the POM model number. You can find the price for the vaporizer/mixer combination in the same table.

All WB/POM systems come complete with an Allen-Bradley PLC equipped control panel with Ethernet Interface, and color LCD display with Touch Screen Operator Interface. Electrical connections between the POM mixer and the control panel are made in two different ways:

In module units (POM mixer on top of vaporizer), electrical connections run from the mixer unit directly to the control panel. In individual units, all electrical connections are terminated in an explosion proof junction box at the POM. From there, a multi-wire cable (not included with system) is run to the mixer control panel in the vaporizer control room.

The WB/POM Series is designed for outdoor installation and requires only nominal preventive maintenance. Intended for intermittent or continuous service, the systems are manufactured to meet or exceed requirements of the ASME Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII, and the latest edition of NFPA Pamphlet #58. They are approved by Factory Mutual (FM) and Canadian  Standards Association (CSA), and are suitable for Industrial Risk Insurers (IRI) installations. All systems are factory tested, primed, painted and ready for installation. They come with 2 sets of operating manuals and test reports.

After July 2003, all models vaporizers WB-450 and above are equipped with Temperature and Pressure Transmitters in Vapor Outlet for “smart” Liquid Carryover Protection, based on pressure/temperature correlation and LPG type (propane/butane/…).
