Centrifugal slurry pumps which can deliver high capacity with limited head are mostly used in pumping slurry through pipelines at concentrations below 70% solids by weight.Amostech can supply several types of centrifugal slurry pumps, here are horizontal slurry pump,vertical slurry pump or submersible slurry pump.

Horizontal Slurry Pump Feature：

• Impellers that are larger in diameter to reduce operating speeds and internal velocities
• Special materials required for erosion resistance
• Discharge casing liners with larger clearances and typically with thicker cross-sections. Lined pumps with replaceable casing liners are common
• Bearings and shafts that are more rugged/rigid, with shorter overhung distances

There are many different materials available to achieve the longest wear life of pump components: for example, alloys, elastomers and polyurethanes.

Vertical Slurry Pump Feature:

• Superior versatility – available in metal MPS or rubber-lined MPSR versions to suit most pumping applications
• Can be paired with anti-bogging sump pump to create an ultra heavy-duty hybrid pump and improve performance
• Pumping is maintained even when the top inlet is not submerged, thus enabling the level of liquid to be lowered right down to the bottom inlet or the bottom of any suction extension pipe
• These vertical pumps are available with standard open impeller and recessed impeller options
• Zero ancillary water costs
• No priming required
• Reduced risk of blockage

Submersible Slurry Pump Feature:

• A Submersible Centrifugal slurry pump is a continuous flow type of pump that works submerged and is capable of handling abrasive slurries.  It has an inlet at the suction of the pump that increases the speed of the slurry through the vanes of a rotating impeller, producing centrifugal force which sends the slurry through the casing to the discharge.  The casing is a horn-shaped element that transfers speed into pressure.
• The pump performance is defined by the design of the casing and the impeller. The efficiency is related to the number and design of vanes in the impeller. Handling slurries, efficiencies are usually compromised by clearances and the need to build abrasion resistant heavy duty components, taking in consideration materials, thickness, etc.
• A submersible Slurry pump could be electrically or hydraulically driven.  If it is an electric pump, the motor shaft carries the impeller. If it is a hydraulic pump the motor is directly coupled to the main shaft of the pump.
