What is "AS-IS”?

Strictly the way we received it from the previous owner. It may or may not be complete of all its parts and it may or may not run. We will disclose and represent the machine to you exactly as it is in our inventory for you to decide. This would be the lowest investment for a piece of equipment, but also present the biggest risk.

How do you define "CLEAN, RUNNING & SHOP TESTED"?

We take the “as-is” piece of equipment and do a minimum of work in the shop to make it a running, complete machine. It will be cleaned inside and out. It will be run tested in our shop. It will have all of its “osha” guards. It may or may not have new paint and/or electrical components. It will be mechanically and electrically tuned-up to just the basic level.

What does the term "RECONDITIONED/REBUILT” mean?

Here we will review equipment electrically and replace parts as needed with new electrical controls wired to an AutoCAD drawn wiring print or to original print, strip prime and recoat entire mixer in “steel-it®” s/s coating, ,and replace worn mechanicals on an “as needed” basis. All motors are rebuilt at motor shop (or new). The equipment will be shop tested and upgraded to a “good” rating. Note: if purchasing a mixer with a bowl jacket we will pressure test jacket and re-insulate bowl jacket (if applicable) with new closed cell insulation.

Can you describe “REMANUFACTURED” (90% NEW)?

Equipment is stripped down to basic frame structure. Mild steel frame work is stripped and coated in steel- it®, all electrical components, running mechanicals are new. If equipment is a mixer with a bowl jacket, the jacket will be replaced new. All access panels are hinged with electrical interlocks. All new motors are installed. All applicable features found in new equipment can be included, i.e., plc controls, new seal designs, s/s split hub spiders, hydraulic bowl tilt systems, etc. The equipment leaves our shop with a “best” rating. At this level, it will operate and perform as new. Customer also has the able to customize equipment at this level for their septic needs. Equipment will be supplied with manual and electrical schematics.


Can you tell me about your “NEW” products?

Equipment is fabricated from scratch with as many new technological features. As per the customer’s request and budget. Topos has new equipment in production; however we can build custom equipment as well for any project.
