high quality stainless steel submersible pump manufacturer

Selecting the right pump for slurries is critical to get the most bang for your buck. Basic pump components, such as the impeller size and design, material of construction, and discharge configurations must be considered to ensure the pump will hold up against the wear caused by an abrasive slurry. Slurry pumps are generally larger in size when compared to low-viscosity liquid pumps and usually require more horsepower to operate because they're less efficient. Bearings and shafts must be more rugged and rigid as well.

-When pumping abrasive slurries, it is essential to use wear-resistant components with a high chromium content. But more is not always better - above 25%, the impeller becomes brittle.

Heavy-Duty Slurry Pump

Natural rubber is an excellent wear material when handling wet sand slurries. Its strength, resilience and cut resistance have a positive impact on the wear performance of slurry pumps.

Another important target=_blank title=Part of the Slurry Pump>part of the slurry pump is its casing, which bears all the pressure. The slurry pump casing should have a large clearance between the impeller and the diversion angle to reduce wear and prevent large solid particles from getting stuck. Due to the extra space, there is more recirculation in the slurry pump casing under various operating conditions. Again, this accelerates wear compared to typical pumps.
