Defining the direction of thrust

The mixer can exert thrust either upwards or downwards in the operating space. To do this, the direction of rotation and propeller blade direction must match. The following illustration shows the propeller blade direction for each respective direction of thrust.

In addition to the blade direction, the direction of rotation* of the propeller also has to be correct:

• Clockwise rotation: Upward direction of thrust
• Anti-clockwise rotation: Downward direction of thrust

Observe the following points:

• *The information on direction of rotation exclusively relates to the mixer when viewed from above!
• The propeller blade direction and direction of rotation must match!
• The system-specific specifications regarding direction of rotation (DoR) and direction of thrust (DoT) are noted on the rating plate!

NOTICE! For the proper direction of rotation, the motor has to be connected in the clockwise or anti-clockwise rotation. The specifications for the electrical connection can be found in the motor instructions!
