Pumps designed to pump slurries will be heavier than pumps designed for less viscous liquids because slurries are heavy and difficult to pump.

As this limestone slurry needs to be moved efficiently through a complex industrial process, the selection of the right pumps and valves (taking into account their whole life cycle costs and maintenance) is crucial.

Types of slurry pump installation.

The size of slurry pump impeller must be considered to ensure it holds up against abrasive wear. Slurry pump impellers are generally larger in size when compared to slurry pumps for less abrasive liquids. The more “meat” the impeller has, the better it will hold up to the task of pumping harsh slurry mixtures. Just think of slurry pump impeller as a football team’s offensive line. These players are usually large and slow. Throughout the whole game they are beaten up, over and over again, but expected to withstand the abuse. You wouldn’t want small players in this position, just like you wouldn’t want a small impeller on your slurry pumps.

Despite the complexity of internal flow patterns, the overall performance of dredge pumps is predictable.

Firstly, analysing your duty helps us to determine whether you are using the type and size of pump best suited to your needs. Cavitation can occur due to surges; a very effective way to solve this problem is to install a choke on the pump head to increase the pressure on the casing, which then absorbs the surge, or to add a choke to the output to reduce the surge.
