fgd pump

Choosing the right pump for your slurry is critical to getting the most out of it. Basic pump components such as impeller size and design, materials of construction and discharge configuration must be considered to ensure that the pump can withstand the wear caused by abrasive slurries. Compared to low-viscosity liquid pumps, target=_blank title=Slurry Pump>slurry pumps are typically larger and often require more horsepower to operate because they are less efficient. Bearings and shafts must also be more robust and durable.

Pump selection for FGD

When pumping slurry in wet sand applications, we must evaluate the abrasive particles flowing through the piping and then assess how they affect the slurry pump. If the pump is lined with poor quality rubber, the particles will not rebound effectively and, as a result, the rubber will begin to break down. The air shavings then begin to accelerate and negatively impact the efficiency of the pump, often leading to turbulence.

Slurry pumps can also simply axially adjust the clearance between the impeller and the adjacent throat casing sealing surface. This helps to maintain pump performance when internal components begin to wear.

600WN to 1000WN dredge pumps are of double casings, single stage cantilevered centrifugal pumps. These pumps are equipped with frame and lubrication is force thin oil. The design of double casing the pump working till the volute liner almost worn down and guarantee no leakage when volute liner is worn down.

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.
