Slurry Pump

Dredge pumps are designed to transfer large quantities of fluids and solids.

With the development of the dredging market, the requirements for dredging equipment are getting higher and higher, and the suction resistance and vacuum of dredging pumps are getting higher and higher, which has a great impact on the efficiency of dredging pumps and the chance of cavitation is getting higher and higher. The number of >dredging pumps is also increasing.

Traditionally, centrifugal pumps are used to pump highly abrasive slurries. Centrifugal pumps use the force generated by the rotating impeller to impinge kinetic energy into the slurry.

When pumping slurry in wet sand applications, we must evaluate the abrasive particles flowing through the piping and then assess how they affect the slurry pump. If the pump is lined with poor quality rubber, the particles will not rebound effectively and, as a result, the rubber will begin to break down. The air shavings then begin to accelerate and negatively impact the efficiency of the pump, often leading to turbulence.

A slurry pump is a mechanical device used for the pressure-driven transfer of a fluid mixture (aka slurry). The fluid mixture consists largely of water as a liquid and solids as minerals, sand, gravel, human excrement, drilling mud or mostly crushed material.
