Slurry pumps are equipment for pumping contaminated water containing mechanical inclusions up to small stones.

 According to user reviews, they are used in many areas of activity, mainly for the following processes: pumping out domestic wastewater; disposal of liquid industrial waste; pumping out heavily polluted water from pits, quarries, etc.; application in the field of fire fighting; production of cement and other building materials; deepening of marinas, restoration of beaches. 

According to experts, unpretentiousness and high performance make it possible to use slurry pumps to extract sand from reservoirs. They can be used to extract minerals. Russian-made slurry pumps are divided according to the type of pumped medium. They are ground, slurry or sand.

Advantages 

High wear resistance due to the use of high-quality materials.

Application safety. The device does not contain external rotating parts and does not require special installation. 

The modular system with interchangeable materials is easy to operate. 

Submersible devices allow pumping liquid medium to any height. 

The pump is lowered into the water to the bottom of the reservoir and regulation of its position is not required. 

Possibility of pumping flushing solutions when drilling soil. 

Application

features Slurry pumps belong to the centrifugal group. The design allows you to move liquid suspensions with a large amount of sand, sludge and other solid impurities. 

They are often confused with drainage and fecal, which do not work in such harsh conditions. 

Slurry pumps are capable of pumping impurities with a density of 2,500 kg/m 3 because they have reliable walls, a reinforced impeller and other details. 

At the same time, an armored disk is installed inside, which takes on the main load. Purpose Compared to a water pump, the slurry pump, whose characteristics are significantly different, is capable of pumping a contaminated liquid medium of different density: clay; sand slurry; gravel; mineral deposits; solid impurities of various nature; muddy sediments; biomixes; drilling products.
