rubber impeller for slurry pump factory

Determine the perfect combination of slow pumping (to reduce wear) and fast pumping to prevent solids from settling and clogging.

When dealing with slurry, you generally want to go bigger and slower. The thicker the impeller, the better it will hold up. The slower the pump, the less erosion will inflict on the impeller. However, the impeller isn’t the only thing to worry in slurry pump when dealing with slurry. Tough, durable materials of construction are necessary most of the time. Metal slurry pump liners and wear plates are common in slurry applications.

Will solids size pass through the pump?

- By increasing the size of the worm housing, the speed at which the media moves is reduced. This lower velocity translates into lower wear.

Slurry Pump

The basic mechanical seal flushing programme is very simple. It requires that a clear/clean fluid (usually water) is introduced into the space between the actual seal and the impeller side outlet restriction. The flushing fluid is introduced at a pressure higher than the pumping pressure, thus ensuring positive outflow/flushing of the mechanical seal and a clean operating environment.
