Settling slurries are formed by coarse particles, which tend to form unstable mixtures. Special attention should be paid to flow and power calculations when selecting a pump. Most slurry applications consist of coarse particles and therefore have a higher abrasion resistance.

Reduced inventory

The design of the slurry pump is critical to ensure that the abrasive and often corrosive aspects of the slurry do not damage the impeller. In addition, slurries and sludges may contain large amounts of unforeseen solids, which will inevitably clog many types of pumps. Since most centrifugal pump impellers have very tight tolerances on the worm gear, the abrasive (and sometimes corrosive) nature of the slurry will quickly wear down the worm gear and destroy the tolerances. In turn, this causes the pump to lose suction. This can lead to extensive downtime of the slurry pump, as well as expensive maintenance and spare parts.

Critical to the engineering of the pump are heavy duty bearing frames and shafts, extra thick wall sections and easily replaceable wear parts. Total life cycle cost considerations are critical when specifying pumps for severe operating conditions, such as FGD service. High chrome pumps are ideal due to the corrosive pH of the slurry.

600WN to 1000WN dredge pumps are of double casings, single stage cantilevered centrifugal pumps. These pumps are equipped with frame and lubrication is force thin oil. The design of double casing the pump working till the volute liner almost worn down and guarantee no leakage when volute liner is worn down.

When the slurry pump working, pump parts are easy to be impacted, wear, and corrosion, etc. Therefore, the liner of the slurry pump uses wear-resistant material, such as high chromium alloy, rubber. The wear-resistant materials can effectively reduce the wear parts of the pump. So most of the slurry pump is a wear-resistant slurry pump in the current market.
