WL Series Light-duty pumps are cantilevered, horizontal centrifugal slurry pumps. They are suitable for delivering low density slurries for metallurgical, mining, coal and building material departments. The shaft seal adopts both gland seal and centrifugal seal.

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.

Compared to standard centrifugal pumps, centrifugal pumps optimized for slurry pumping typically have the following features.

Some models can generate discharge pressures up to 260 ft. (80 m).

When flushing is required, the >slurry pump supplier recommends the API Option 32 sealed pipe arrangement as it is more suitable for services containing solids or contaminants that could damage the seal faces if recirculated in the flushing medium.

Make sure you follow the basic rules of pump piping.

Oil seals come in various shapes to fit the machine or substance for sealing.
For this reason, when designing a machine, it is important to select the oil seal that is right for that machine.
Next time, we will explain the key points to consider when selecting your oil seal.
