Other manufacturers looking for differentiation, if not the end result, may choose to add a small part to their pump assembly in the description, thus allowing in-line adjustment of the wear ring in the suction side lining assembly.

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.

Auxiliary equipment

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.

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.

The design of the slurry pump is critical to ensure that the abrasive and often corrosive aspects of the slurry do not damage the impeller. In addition, slurries and sludges may contain large amounts of unforeseen solids, which will inevitably clog many types of pumps. Since most centrifugal pump impellers have very tight tolerances on the worm gear, the abrasive (and sometimes corrosive) nature of the slurry will quickly wear down the worm gear and destroy the tolerances. In turn, this causes the pump to lose suction. This can lead to extensive downtime of the slurry pump, as well as expensive maintenance and spare parts.
