- Choosing the right slurry pump
- What is the optimum seal arrangement for the application?
- Definition of dredge and slurry pumps
- Particle size, shape and hardness (impact on wear and corrosion potential of pump components)
- >Slurry Pump vs Mud Pump
- The slurry weight or consistency determines the type, design and capacity of the slurry pump required. If you have any questions about the best pump for your application, welcome to >contact us today or request a quote.
- >Slurry Pump
- - Easy installation - Submersible pumps are relatively easy to install since the motor and worm gear are a single unit.
- Stainless Steel, Duplex Stainless Steel, Ductile Iron, Grey Iron, etc. We can also provide natural rubber, elastomer rubber parts and pumps.
- If a centrifugal pump, is the design and material used to construct the impeller suitable for pumping slurries?
- Slurry Pump Speed
- Fine-grained sand can be extremely abrasive and typically wears slurry pumps quickly. Characteristics of coarse aggregates that can affect pump performance are size, shape and surface texture, as well as gradual changes in particle size, while fine materials can create excessive friction in the pipe.
- 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.
- The first major requirement for >slurry pumps is to provide adequate service life. The erosive and corrosive effects of slurries, such as the impact of high velocity flow of liquid/solid mixtures, can be really challenging. In many applications, some of the solids in the mixture are larger than the particles normally specified; therefore, the pump should be able to pass through them without causing any damage or operational problems.
- For certain types of slurry pumping conditions, positive displacement pumps may be a more suitable option than centrifugal pumps.
- Reduced inventory
- We know that the right rubber and ceramic liners work very well. They also last longer and can withstand more demanding use. They can also be replaced, thereby extending the life of the pump while reducing operating costs. You can also customise your pump with a variety of ceramic parts, including bushings, pump housings, impellers, wet ends and even seals.
- To reduce component wear, most centrifugal slurry pumps run at fairly low speeds - typically less than 1200 rpm. Find the optimum position that allows the pump to run as slowly as possible but fast enough to prevent solids from settling out of the slurry deposit and clogging the lines.
- AIER will always strive to be your common sense slurry pump and parts supplier in a complex world!
- - Low noise level - Operating underwater results in low noise or even silent operation.
- Slurry pumps can be used to transport mixtures of liquids and solids in many industries in a wide range of applications, such as mine drainage, dredging of sunken lagoons and pumping of drilling mud.
- Slurry pump construction materials
- In addition, a new level of complexity is added to an otherwise simple machine. Other parts must now be inventoried and training beyond basic spanner turning is required. When it comes to pumping rock and some of the world's most abrasive materials.
- Slurry Pump
- 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.
- Typical Applications of slurry pump
- The terms slurry pump and dredge pump can be used interchangeably.
- One of the most frequently asked questions from our team of pump experts is: How do I pump slurry? With this in mind, our team of experts have provided a useful guide to pumping slurry.
- One problem with centrifugal pumps is that the velocity and shear forces within the pump may damage the slurry/solids. Typically, twin-screw pumps cause the least damage to solids in the slurry.
- 3. Both pumps and motors are designed separately.
- Metal and/or rubber pump bushings are used to combat the erosion of solid particles found in the slurry. Metal slurry pump housings are usually made of carbide to resist erosion caused by increased pressure and circulation. Sometimes wear-resistant steel is used on the pump casing so that the pump can be welded if repairs are needed.
- The slurry must be pumped from the absorber tank to the top of the spray tower where it is sprayed downwards as a fine mist to react with the upward moving flue gas. With pumping volumes typically in the range of 16,000 to 20,000 gallons of slurry per minute and heads of 65 to 110 feet, rubber lined slurry pumps are the optimal pumping solution.
- Critical to the engineering of the pump are heavy duty bearing frames and shafts, extra thick wall sections and easily replaceable wear parts. Total life cycle cost considerations are critical when specifying pumps for severe operating conditions, such as FGD service. High chrome pumps are ideal due to the corrosive pH of the slurry.
- A slurry is any mixture of a fluid (such as water) and a powdery solid. Slurries are used as a convenient way to handle bulk solids in the mining, steel processing, foundry, power generation and, more recently, frac sand mining industries. Slurries typically behave like viscous viscous fluids, flowing under gravity, but can also be pumped as needed.
- Consideration should be given to installing mixers on guide rods in the catch basin/tank to keep solids in suspension and avoid settling in the catch basin/tank. When investing in a slurry pump, you want to pump slurry that includes solids, not just dirty water. Therefore, it is important to make sure that the pump is doing this; by using an agitator, the pump is fed with solids and pumping the slurry.
- >Dredge Pump
- Sites often rely on centrifugal pumps to provide slurry service. These pumps (and their associated piping systems) require special provisions that demand detailed knowledge of the properties of solids and slurries to prevent wear, corrosion, erosion and other adverse effects such as solids settling. Specifying the optimum combination of speed, geometry and material requires a proper balance of often conflicting pump priorities; this requires consideration of stable operation, maximum wear life, operational flexibility and minimum energy consumption.
- 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.
- Our firm has strong technical force and is specially engaged in the research of abrasion resistant materials of slurry pumps, sewage pumps and water pumps and the development of new products. The materials include high chrome white iron, duplex stainless steel, stainless steel, ductile iron, rubber, etc.
- Determine the operating parameters of the pump.
- A dredge pump contains a pump casing and an impeller. The impeller is mounted in the pump casing and connected to the drive motor via a gearbox and shaft. The front part of the pump casing is sealed with a suction cover and connected directly to the suction pipe of the dredger. The discharge port of the dredge pump is located near the top of the dredge pump and is connected to a separate discharge line.
- As new coal-fired power plants come on line to meet the growing demand for electricity in the US and around the world, there is an increasing need to clean plant emissions to meet clean air regulations. Special pumpsxa0help to operate these scrubbers efficiently and handle the abrasive slurries used in the flue gas desulphurisation (FGD) process.
- Slurry Pump
- It is often used if a short period of dry running is expected. Fluid is introduced into the area between the back of the seal face and the tight-fitting outlet on the drive side of the slurry pump.
- Includes a large number of solids or particles.
- Despite the complexity of internal flow patterns, the overall performance of dredge pumps is predictable.
- As described below, there are several >types of pumps that are suitable for pumping slurries. However, before considering which technology to use, we must address several key issues.
- Although the focus of slurry pumps is often on the size and percentage of solids to be pumped, in many applications corrosion resistance is also an important factor in material selection. In such cases, the material chosen must provide adequate resistance to erosion and corrosion.
- - Low noise level - Operating underwater results in low noise or even silent operation.
- The Mud pumps need to be equipped with auxiliary equipment, but slurry pumps not. They often need to use with high-pressure water pump when mud pump working. The high-pressure pump sent the water that larger than the mud pump pressure to the leakproof packing. Then protect the packing. Otherwise, it is easy to make the seal part wear. But the wear-resistant slurry pumps can complete the transportation work independently, which not need to equip other auxiliary equipment.
