How to make a reasonable selection of slurry pump?

In recent years, in addition to the requirements of long life, high efficiency, energy saving and environmental protection, low cost and easy maintenance, the slurry pump products also put forward higher requirements for the performance and reliability of the pump.

In order to meet these requirements, it is necessary not only to have excellent hydraulic design and structural design, suitable anti-wear materials and high-level manufacturing quality, but also to make correct and reasonable selection and use of materials.

A lot of practice shows that:

When conveying strong abrasive slurry, it is necessary to pay attention to the correct matching of the pump and its hydraulic system and the selection of materials to obtain the longest life of the pump overcurrent components. It will cause eddy currents in the pump, which will cause wear and shorten the life.

This situation is most obvious when it deviates from 50% of the flow rate of the optimal efficiency point. Therefore, when selecting the type, according to the requirements of the system, the slurry flow point should not be selected too large to pay attention to the influence of the relative performance of the solid in the slurry.

Select the correction factor appropriately. Accurately calculate system resistance and understand the effect of slurry rheological properties on pump performance. Only in this way can we achieve reasonable selection, reduce backflow, enable the pump to operate efficiently, reduce energy consumption, and reduce wear and tear.
