Low slurry flow rates

Stainless Steel, Duplex Stainless Steel, Ductile Iron, Grey Iron, etc. We can also provide natural rubber, elastomer rubber parts and pumps.

When dealing with slurry, you generally want to go bigger and slower. The thicker the impeller, the better it will hold up. The slower the pump, the less erosion will inflict on the impeller. However, the impeller isn’t the only thing to worry in slurry pump when dealing with slurry. Tough, durable materials of construction are necessary most of the time. Metal slurry pump liners and wear plates are common in slurry applications.

To reduce component wear, most centrifugal slurry pumps run at fairly low speeds - typically less than 1200 rpm. Find the optimum position that allows the pump to run as slowly as possible but fast enough to prevent solids from settling out of the slurry deposit and clogging the lines.

A >dredge pump is a horizontal centrifugal pump that is the heart of a dredger. It is designed to handle suspended abrasive granular materials and solids of limited size. Without a dredge pump, a stranded dredger would not be able to deliver mud.

For certain types of slurry pumping conditions, positive displacement pumps may be a more suitable option than centrifugal pumps.

Offshore Installations and Ships

Fiberglass covered grating is a long-lasting, molded fiberglass floor product that combines smooth, gritted, or checker plate and molded grating manufactured with any of our resin systems. It is the ideal choice when a 100% covered flooring surface is needed. Our fiberglass covered grating is often used in loading and storage areas with high foot and cart traffic. This is where a strong, level surface is ideal, and this is why fiberglass covered grating is ideal. If offers approximately 50% higher stiffness values than that of open mesh grating, and its standard grit-top cover assures secure footing. For more on fiberglass covered grating, click here.

An efficient clarification and filtration system is an essential part of any treatment plant. The clarifier is designed for superior removal of settleable solids in water, wastewater and industrial applications. The concave faces of the sections transport the sediment toward a sludge pit. During return movement, the wedge-shaped parts of the sections slide under the sludge blanket, providing continuous and unidirectional transport. It is easy to install and maintain.
