One of the most frequently asked questions from our team of pump experts is: How do I pump slurry?xa0With this in mind, our team of experts have provided a useful guide to pumping slurry.

The size of slurry pump impeller must be considered to ensure it holds up against abrasive wear. Slurry pump impellers are generally larger in size when compared to slurry pumps for less abrasive liquids. The more “meat” the impeller has, the better it will hold up to the task of pumping harsh slurry mixtures. Just think of slurry pump impeller as a football team’s offensive line. These players are usually large and slow. Throughout the whole game they are beaten up, over and over again, but expected to withstand the abuse. You wouldn’t want small players in this position, just like you wouldn’t want a small impeller on your slurry pumps.

A clear clean fluid supplied from an external source is normally used which is delivered to the main sealing surface on the fluid side of the sealing process. By using a closed gap throat bushing, the stuffing box can be back-pressurised to a higher pressure, ensuring that the flushing fluid does not flash across the seal face.

The most important thing here is to determine the pump power required to deliver a specific fluid flow at the desired or required differential pressure. Consider the following.
