Slurry pump seals

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.

Rubber Lined Slurry Pump

The FGD process begins when the limestone feed (rock) is reduced in size by crushing it in a ball mill and then mixed with water in a slurry supply tank. The slurry (approx. 90% water) is then pumped into the absorption tank. As the consistency of the limestone slurry tends to change, suction conditions can occur which can lead to cavitation and pump failure.

Another important target=_blank title=Part of the Slurry Pump>part of the slurry pump is its casing, which bears all the pressure. The slurry pump casing should have a large clearance between the impeller and the diversion angle to reduce wear and prevent large solid particles from getting stuck. Due to the extra space, there is more recirculation in the slurry pump casing under various operating conditions. Again, this accelerates wear compared to typical pumps.
