Bentonite & Tunneling Slurry

Tunneling and drilling slurry can combine viscous bentonite with sand and rock fragments. Review the solids profile, feed consistency, and wear-part requirements before choosing a pump package.

Explore Bentonite Slurry

Solids concentration, particle size, and abrasive mineral content.
Slurry consistency and conditions during startup or restart.
Required flow, pressure, and rotor, liner, or wear-plate selection.

Mining Tailings & Heavy Slurry

Mine tailings and heavy slurry can contain abrasive particles and fluid chemistry that varies by site. Review solids loading, suction feeding, and maintenance access alongside wetted-material selection.

Explore Mining Tailings

Solids concentration and whether it is reported by mass or volume.
Particle size, abrasive minerals, and slurry chemistry.
Startup conditions, drive torque, and access for wear-part service.

Geotechnical & Construction Wellpoint Dewatering

Wellpoint systems, sumps, and construction pits involve changing water levels and intermittent inflow. Review suction conditions, air exposure, and discharge requirements together with the proposed installation.

Explore Wellpoint Dewatering

Suction lift, pipe layout, and expected air-water conditions.
Required flow, discharge pressure, and variations in inflow.
Mobile or fixed layout, power supply, and seal-protection controls.

What to Share for Pump Selection

Share available slurry data and site information, including sample descriptions, photos, or a piping sketch, for review.

Fluid: slurry or drainage-water type, solids concentration and its measurement basis, particle size, hardness, and pH.
Duty: required flow, discharge pressure, operating hours, and startup or intermittent-flow conditions.
Installation: suction lift, pipe lengths and sizes, available power, mobile mounting, and service access.
