Slurry Pump

Slurry pump seals

3.Basic pump components such as impeller size and design, materials of construction and discharge configuration must be considered to ensure that the pump can withstand the wear and tear caused by abrasive slurries. Slurry pumps are typically larger in size compared to low viscosity liquid pumps and often require more horsepower to operate due to their lower efficiency. Bearings and shafts must also be more robust and durable.

Firstly, analysing your duty helps us to determine whether you are using the type and size of pump best suited to your needs. Cavitation can occur due to surges; a very effective way to solve this problem is to install a choke on the pump head to increase the pressure on the casing, which then absorbs the surge, or to add a choke to the output to reduce the surge.

Depending on the abrasive nature of the slurry, it is important to select the ideal seal. Slurry pump seals should have a hardened surface made of silicon carbide or tungsten carbide. Vortex pumps use patented seal technology that utilizes a double mechanical seal setup and a separate seal flushing system. This allows the sealing surface to be kept cool at all times without causing the slurry to overheat the seal and crack the surface.
