Selection of pumps for applications with solid particles. Seeking advice, thank you
Thread Content
Seeking advice on pump selection: solid content ≤ 100 mg/L, particle size of 1 mm, temperature < 60°C, flow rate of 200. What type of pump should be used? What wear-resistant material? Thank you
Choose a slurry pump or a grout pump – what is the head required?
The material is chosen based on the desired service life: the minimum option is gray cast iron, a better choice is ductile iron, and an even better option is duplex steel that is resistant to corrosion and wear. For pumps where the particles are not hard or sharp, rubber-lined pumps can be considered
For 100m, is it feasible to use a ZA pump type under such operating conditions?
Considering the replacement costs, would it be feasible to use ZA pump type with ball-milled cast iron?
Use a slurry pump and replace the bushings regularly
It’s rare to see such a high head for the medium under these operating conditions
You can contact me; I have a solution
A high-polymer silicon carbide wear-resistant lining can be used, offering good results at low cost
