vertical centrifugal sump pump

Fewer and thicker vanes on the impeller. This makes it easier for solids to pass through than the 5-9 vanes on a standard centrifugal pump - usually 2-5 vanes.

Consider the impeller. Slurry pumps must have thicker vanes than water pumps to prevent wear. Due to the increased thickness, there will be fewer vanes, otherwise the passages will be too narrow and will affect the performance of the pump. The impeller should have a large enough passage so that the largest solid particles can pass through without clogging.

Caution: A common mistake is to over-pressurise the box and damage the expensive mechanical seal.

Slurry pump considerations

These mud pumps can pump not only sand, but also more mud. They are very effective in pumping all forms of mud, gravel, concrete, slurry, slush, etc.
