The 5 MUSTS for Choosing the Best Slurry Pump

 

The 5 MUSTS for Choosing the Best Slurry Pump

 

1.) Slurry Pump Design

 

The design of a slurry pump is critical to making sure that the abrasive and often corrosive aspects of the slurry does not destroy the impeller. Additionally, slurry and sludge may contain large unforeseen solids that will inevitably clog many types of pumps. Since most centrifugal pumps have an impeller with a close tolerance to the volute, the abrasive and sometimes corrosive nature of the slurry will quickly wear the volute and ruin the tolerance. This, in turn, causes the pump to lose its suction capability. This causes massive downtime with slurry pumps along with costly maintenance and spare parts.

For this reason, the EDDY Pump is ideal for slurry pumping applications. The EDDY Pump does not have an impeller, but instead a rotor that does not have any critical tolerances. This allows it to pump slurry at rates of 30% and solids up to 12 inches. This is far more than what centrifugal pumps can handle without any failure or need to change wear parts.

Heavy Duty Slurry PumpHeavy Duty Slurry Pumps

The definition of Heavy Duty Pumps stands for the high requirements of highly wear-resistance submersible pumps. These requirements will be fulfilled by the complete range of pumps in a superior way. By the application of chrome alloyed steels and a selection of ideal mechanical seals in accordance with the ideal motor speed extraordinary service life will be achieved. TOYO is the founder of the so-called cutter.

The functional principle of using together with the speed a downwards beam of water creating a sensation of sedimentary material, gives more advantages to the pump.

Additionally the cutter has a high wear resistance and ratio of 30 % in volume of sedimentary material can be reached. Beside the here represented GR-, ET-, DP- and VH-ranges are according to the application DPH- (hydraulic-driven TP), DPA- (up to 1,300 kW), VHA- (vertical amphibian TP) ranges available.
