WZ series slurry pumps are new type wear resistant & corrosion resistant slurry pump for the complexity and specificity of coal, power plant, metallurgy, chemical, building materials and other industries.

For example.

Less downtime

Selecting the right pump for slurries is critical to get the most bang for your buck. Basic pump components, such as the impeller size and design, material of construction, and discharge configurations must be considered to ensure the pump will hold up against the wear caused by an abrasive slurry. Slurry pumps are generally larger in size when compared to low-viscosity liquid pumps and usually require more horsepower to operate because they're less efficient. Bearings and shafts must be more rugged and rigid as well.

Slurry Pump

Centrifugal slurry pumps capable of providing high capacity with a limited head are mainly used for pumping slurry through pipes with a concentration of less than 70% by weight of solids. Centrifugal slurry pumps can be vertical, horizontal or submersible.

There may be a thick spacer gasket between two thin paper ones. Check the spacer for cracks. If it needs replacing, be sure the new one is the right thickness, because this governs the fuel-pump lever stroke .

The advantages are low friction and minimum power consumption, the possible use even in case of insufficient lubrication, operating range of -130º c to +200º c and much more: high chemical resistance and a low breakaway torque after standstill. Further, the PTFE, when heated, can” remember” its original form and return to it (phenomenon known as” plastic memory effect”).Therefore, this kind of seal do not need the old school metallic spring.
