8 inch dredge pump

The most important thing here is to determine the pump power required to deliver a specific fluid flow at the desired or required differential pressure. Consider the following.

Slurry pump design

The selection of a dredge or , slurry pump, can be a challenging process that can be simplified by understanding the main factors behind the smooth operation of a pump. In addition to providing more efficient performance, the right dredge pump requires less maintenance, lower power and a relatively longer life.

The size and nature of the solids in the liquid: The size and nature will affect the amount of physical wear on the pump and its components, and whether the solids will pass through the pump without being damaged.

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