Know why slurry pumps are the best choice

Slurry pumps are designed for pumping liquid containing solid particles. Slurry pumps help in the transportation of slurry i.e, unwanted solid particles from liquid. Slurry pumps are more robust than other pumps. 

These pumps are designed differently so that they can adjust to numerous types of slurry which vary in the concentration of solids, size of solid particles, the form of solid particles, and composition of the solution. Slurry pumps are the best choice in industrial use because of their components such as large impeller diameter, shafts, bearings, internal passageways which carry out all the slurry from the liquid. These pumps are heavy-duty pumps so they are used in construction as well. A slurry pump is widely used in other industries such as mining, power, chemical industry, etc.

List of advantages of using slurry pumps:

• Slurry pumps are lightweight and easy to handle.

• These pumps consume less energy and can reduce a lot of power consumption.

• The slurry pumps are highly efficient, have suitable methods of lubrication and cooling design, and have low working temperatures.

• Slurry pumps have a long working life due to their high abrasion resistance which improves productivity and working efficiency.

• This type of pump only generates noise when slurries block the impeller or suction pipelines, otherwise, they do their job smoothly.

The above points are the reason to choose slurry pumps. There are more than five types of slurry pumps available in India such as heavy-duty, light-duty, vertical sump slurry pumps, submersible slurry pumps, etc. What kind of slurry pump you need depends on your requirements.

Choosing the Right Slurry Pump - Darling Pumps

Slurry is a mixture of solids and liquid, generally water. The particles can be both abrasive & nonabrasive, although abrasive particles are very much common. The purpose to move slurry can be transporting as much solids particles as possible, hydraulically, along with the given liquid.

Below are Common Characteristics of Slurries:

• Abrasive
• Thick consistency
• Can contain a high amount of solids
• Usually settle quickly

Slurry Types

Slurry can be further classified in to two types 

Type 1: Settling Slurry

Type 2: Non-Settling Slurry

Settling slurries are formed by coarse particles that tend to form an unstable mixture. Particular attention should be given to flow and power calculations when selecting a pump. The majority of slurry applications are made up of coarse particles and because of this, have higher wear properties.

Non-settling slurries often have high viscosities and small particles, so they flow differently than settling slurries; there is much less segregation of the particles, and the particle concentration within the pipeline is nearly constant, or homogeneous.

Choosing the right pumps for specific slurries can help pump owners avoid unnecessary maintenance, repairs, and related downtime. In addition, proper pump applications make for safer work environments, offering those working on or around pumps peace of mind. Perhaps best of all, purpose-chosen slurry pumps also have longer wear lives, boosting owners’ bottom lines.

Some of the important parameters of slurries to consider when selecting a pump include:

• Particle size, shape (angular, round, long and stringy) and hardness
• Corrosiveness
• Chemical compatibility with elastomer
• Solids concentration
• Likelihood of running dry

In case of slurry pumping, it is important to note that standard pump selection fundamentals might not stand true. Having set – rigid solutions for all type of slurries is just an eye wash. Slurry pumping solutions needs to be customized & that’s where Darling Pumps can make a difference.
