MOUNT & CONTROL PANEL OPTIONSMOUNT & CONTROL PANEL OPTIONS
Kasco offers a variety of mounting options to best position a CertiSafe™ mixer in any tank environment, all featuring durable stainless
steel� There are also several optional control panels�
Note: These mounting kits are designed for proper placement AND retrieval of CertiSafe™ mixers� Once installed, ONLY remove
mixers via the retrieval method specic to the mount.
PM-100
Pipe Mount
The PM-100 makes use of other struc-
tures in the tank to position the mixer�
Use the upper mount parts above the
water line to adjust the unit’s vertical
position and to swivel the lower mount
parts and the attached mixer� (Pre-cut
stainless steel pipe not included�)
RM-100
Floor Mount
The RM-100 positions the mixer stably
on the tank oor and comes with a re-
trieval chain to safely lift the unit for ob-
servation and maintenance� Protective
feet on each of the legs are designed to
prevent any damage to the tank� (Note:
minimum clearance is 24” for square
hatches, 25” for round hatches�)
SM-100
Suspended Mount
Suspended from the tank roof, the
SM-100 uses a 60” stretcher bar to sup-
port the mixer in a raised position within
the tank� Two chains adjust the unit’s
elevation and facilitate safe removal for
observation and maintenance�

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The Kasco CertiSafe™ Tank Mixer is part of a submerged active mixing system� It is intended for potable water tanks (20,000 gallons
and larger) to eliminate thermal stratication and ice formation, as well as maintain residual disinfectant uniformity.
CertiSafe™ mixers are shipped prepared for use� The motor is equipped with thermal overload protection; however, the mixing unit
must be continuously submerged to ensure safe operation� It is important that the installation provides appropriate voltage to the motor�
Operating the mixer continuously provides maximum water circulation in your tank� Optional system controls are available from Kasco
for mixer units (see page 4)�
CertiSafe™ systems have a maximum operating depth of 50 feet� Effective mixing can be achieved in deeper tanks with mounting at or
above this depth�
NOTE: This manual will cover the tank penetration process necessary to pass the power cable through the tank roof during installation�
Individual mount manuals contain information on additional tank penetration and unit installation�

SUGGESTED TANK PENETRATION
Depending on the mount option you choose, two or three tank penetration holes will be required. The rst is a either a 7/8” or 1-7/64”
diameter hole, depending on the cord gauge� This is for the cord grip, shipped with the CertiSafe™ Tank Mixer� Others are 3/8” in diam-
eter, for eye bolts that hold the cable support and any chains included with the mount�
For reference, all tank penetration measurements are detailed below, followed by instructions for the cord grip pass-through� Instruc-
tions and equipment for additional tank penetration are included with the CertiSafe™ mounting kits�
To prevent galling, we recommend a moisture-cured, polyurethane compound sealant suitable for contact with potable water and certi-
ed to meet the shrinkage for interior and exterior use. Refer to NSF/ANSI Standard 61 for indirect additives.
Note:
• The maximum tank roof thickness accommodated by the tank penetration parts included is 1/8”�
• Suggested measurements are based on a 24” square access hatch�

1� Drill a 7/8” hole (or 1-7/64” hole for 10 AWG cable) at the distance suggested for your mount� See page 7 for details�
2� Deburr both sides of the hole� This is for the cord grip�
3� From the tank exterior, pass the cord grip (A) through the clearance hole, with the O-ring outside the tank roof�
4� From the tank interior, t the cord grip nut (B) on the threads protruding into the tank.
5� Tighten the nut (B) until snug, being careful not to over-tighten�
6� Feed the power cable through the cable support (C)�
• The cable support hangs on a connecting link suspended from an eye bolt� The connecting link and eye bolt are included with
CertiSafe™ mounting kits�
7� Continue to feed power cable through the cord grip (A) and out of the tank until all excess cord length has been taken up, only
leaving enough so that there is no strain on the cable�
8� Tighten the top nut on the cord grip to seal the power cable penetration�
9� Terminate the power cable into an exterior junction box (not supplied by Kasco)�

INJECTION NOZZLE PLACEMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
Once installed, its placement within the tank and powerful active mixing capabilities make Kasco’s CertiSafe™ Tank Mixer an ideal
anchor point for common third-party NSF-approved chemical injection nozzles�
• For this purpose, we recommend that you x any nozzles (not supplied by Kasco) to the unit’s cage, spaced as shown below.
• Use stainless steal hose clamps to secure the nozzle body to the cage, ensuring that the nozzle is snug against the cage and that
the tip is below the propeller�
• Shown here with two nozzles, solutions will be mixed together with the water pulled through the propeller�
