high quality 8/6 rubber slurry pump

Slurry Pump

Adapting a pump to its precise application - be it pulp and paper, gas and oil, mining or industrial applications - will have a direct impact on its service life. That's why our bespoke pumps have the unique advantage of interchangeable components. These components include slurry valves, which can be replaced every 6 months as a preventive measure and every 12 months for regular maintenance, depending on the application.

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.

It is critical to determine the right slurry pump size and power requirements for your application. Depending on the abrasive nature of the slurry, it is important to select a pump size that will allow it to run at a slow enough speed to extend the life of the slurry pump. The ideal RPM to run a slurry pump is between 900 and 1200 RPM. Once that speed is started to be exceeded, the life of the pump is greatly reduced because the wear points of the slurry pump are actually sandblasted.

There is a science behind the design of a >slurry pump, based primarily on the processes and tasks it will perform. This is why it is important to use the right slurry pump for your specific needs. In a field that encompasses so many specialities, long-lasting, efficient and reliable quality equipment is essential.
