high quality wholesale slurry pump cover manufacturer

3.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 and tear caused by abrasive slurries. Slurry pumps are typically larger in size compared to low viscosity liquid pumps and often require more horsepower to operate due to their lower efficiency. Bearings and shafts must also be more robust and durable.

Another way of classifying the type of slurry pump installation is dry installation or wet installation. Dry installation pumps have the hydraulic end and drive located outside the liquid, whereas wet installation pumps (such as submersible pumps) operate within a catch basin or slurry. Submersible pumps do not require much support structure and therefore do not take up much space. Depending on the type of operation and installation required, the preferred method of pump installation is determined.

When the slurry pump working, pump parts are easy to be impacted, wear, and corrosion, etc. Therefore, the liner of the slurry pump uses wear-resistant material, such as high chromium alloy, rubber. The wear-resistant materials can effectively reduce the wear parts of the pump. So most of the slurry pump is a wear-resistant slurry pump in the current market.

WL Series Light-duty pumps are cantilevered, horizontal centrifugal slurry pumps. They are suitable for delivering low density slurries for metallurgical, mining, coal and building material departments. The shaft seal adopts both gland seal and centrifugal seal.

Compared to standard centrifugal pumps, centrifugal pumps optimised for slurry pumping usually have the following features.
