The design of the slurry pump is critical to ensure that the abrasive and often corrosive aspects of the slurry do not damage the impeller. In addition, slurries and sludges may contain large amounts of unforeseen solids, which will inevitably clog many types of pumps. Since most centrifugal pump impellers have very tight tolerances on the worm gear, the abrasive (and sometimes corrosive) nature of the slurry will quickly wear down the worm gear and destroy the tolerances. In turn, this causes the pump to lose suction. This can lead to extensive downtime of the slurry pump, as well as expensive maintenance and spare parts.

Quenching is defined as the introduction of a neutral fluid (usually water or steam) into the atmospheric side of the seal to prevent the formation of solids that may interfere with movement or be used for other purposes.

Repairable - target=_blank title=Rubber Lined Slurry Pumps>Rubber lined slurry pumps can be repaired by simply replacing the bushing.

Slurry pumps with rubber lining are the ideal pump for the mineral sand industry. They have a special rubber lining that makes them heavy duty pumps capable of withstanding high levels of abrasion.
