12 inch slurry pump factory

Determine the perfect combination of slow pumping (to reduce wear) and fast pumping to prevent solids from settling and clogging.

BCT Ceramic Slurry Pumps

The winch dredger is usually equipped with a hull-mounted dredge pump, which has an impeller centered at or below the draft line for further production and improved suction efficiency.

Particle size, shape and hardness (impact on wear and corrosion potential of pump components)

Damage to slurry pumps can range from burst seals to bearings and component housings wearing out where they join, to impellers corroding due to cavitation or severe wear and so on. However, there are solutions to these problems.

Fewer and thicker vanes on the impeller. This makes it easier for solids to pass through than the 5-9 vanes on a standard centrifugal pump - typically 2-5 vanes.
