Light-duty Slurry Pump

We use CFD, CAD method for product design and process design based absorbing experience of world leading pump companies. We integrate molding, smelting, casting, heat treatment, machining and chemical analysis, and have professional engineering and technical personnel.

Expertise and experience

A slurry is any mixture of a fluid (such as water) and a powdery solid. Slurries are used as a convenient way to handle bulk solids in the mining, steel processing, foundry, power generation and, more recently, frac sand mining industries. Slurries typically behave like viscous viscous fluids, flowing under gravity, but can also be pumped as needed.

Under ideal conditions, a dredge pump can produce fluid acceleration greater than the speed of its fastest moving component.

As wear is a function of speed, slurry pumps should be operated at the lowest possible speed; units typically run at 1,200 rpm or less. Often, direct coupling between the pump and a low-speed motor or other drive makes the most sense. On the other hand, many other applications favour gearboxes to meet the required speed and operating point. In services where variable flow rates are required, variable frequency drives are used to provide the necessary continuous speed variation.
