high quality suction dredge pump

The selection of a dredge or >slurry pump can be a challenging process that can be simplified by understanding the main factors behind the smooth operation of a pump. In addition to providing more efficient performance, the right dredge pump requires less maintenance, lower power and a relatively longer life.

The slurry must be pumped from the absorber tank to the top of the spray tower where it is sprayed downwards as a fine mist to react with the upward moving flue gas. With pumping volumes typically in the range of 16,000 to 20,000 gallons of slurry per minute and heads of 65 to 110 feet, rubber lined slurry pumps are the optimal pumping solution.

Depending on your own requirements, propeller seals, mechanical seals or packing seals can be used.

2.Pumping slurries poses several challenges and problems, but with proper engineering and equipment selection you can experience many years of worry-free operation. It's important to work with a qualified engineer when selecting a slurry pump because slurries can wreak havoc on a pump if not properly selected.

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.
