high quality harbor freight dredge pump manufacturer

Other manufacturers looking for differentiation, if not the end result, may choose to add a small part to their pump assembly in the description, thus allowing in-line adjustment of the wear ring in the suction side lining assembly.

Step 1

Find the best position that allows the pump to run as slowly as possible (to reduce wear) but fast enough to prevent solids from settling and clogging the piping.

Selecting a dredge pump

Mixers can also help agitators when pumping very dense particles. In applications where the tank is small and/or where pumping is desired to lower the water level in the tank, a slurry pump with an internal cooling system should be considered to avoid overheating of the stator (when the water level gets low). When pumping sediment from a dam or lagoon, consider the use of a raft unit, which is a submersible device. Agitators are recommended, as well as one or more mixers that can be mounted on the raft or pump to resuspend particles for successful pumping of particles.

On the other hand, if the slurry is not only abrasive but also has a low pH, then a duplex stainless steel construction is preferable. This material is best suited for slurry pumps to withstand harsh materials (such as acids) while still having a high Brinell hardness.
