How To Select Slurry Pumps, What Are The Basis And Principles?

As a relatively \"trendy\" liquid delivery pump valve, many users prefer to use it. Due to the diversity of use areas, many users have derived a variety of models. Many users don’t know which model to choose. After all, it’s a waste to choose a smaller model, and it’s not enough to deliver the flow. So, as a user, would you choose it?And follow the manufacturer CNSME to learn more about how to select the model, what is the basis, and what principles are... Selection basis 1. The selection of a slurry pump must first be based on the liquid conveying volume, that is, the flow rate, usually based on the maximum flow rate, taking into account the normal flow rate.When there is no maximum traffic, generally speaking, it is enough to take 1.1 times the normal traffic as the maximum traffic.2. The choice of head generally requires a backup head with amplification of 5%-10%.3. Understand the properties of the liquid, including the name of the liquid medium, chemical properties (corrosiveness, pH, thermal stability, etc.) and other properties; physical properties (temperature, viscosity, particulate matter, etc.).4. There are also requirements for pipeline layout, referring to the liquid delivery height, liquid delivery distance, liquid delivery direction, pipeline length and material, etc., so as to calculate the pipe loss and check the cavitation allowance.5. Also, operating conditions, such as altitude, ambient temperature, whether the pump is operating gap or continuous, and whether the pump position is fixed or mobile.  Principles of slurry pump selection  1. First of all, the type and performance of the water pump must be ensured, and it must meet the requirements of process parameters such as flow, head, pressure, temperature, cavitation flow, and suction.2. The characteristics of the conveying medium itself must be met.3. In terms of machinery, high reliability, low noise and low vibration.4. The material of the water pump must meet the on-site working conditions, and the more expensive the better.5. For water pumps that convey corrosive media, corrosion-resistant materials are required for overflow components.6. For water pumps that convey flammable, explosive, toxic or valuable media, the shaft seal is required to be reliable or a leak-free water pump.7. In terms of cost, equipment procurement costs, operation costs, maintenance costs and management costs should be comprehensively considered, and the overall costs should be relatively low.8. For water pumps that transport solid particles, wear-resistant materials are required for overflow components, and if necessary, the shaft seal needs to be flushed with cleaning liquid.

Horizontal Slurry Pumps: Principles & Application
Because they offer longevity, efficiency, and adaptability, horizontal slurry pumps are crucial for sectors handling abrasive slurries. Knowing their values, applications, and maintenance needs allows businesses to maximize performance and reduce expenses.
Commissioning of Slurry pumps
Slurry pump commissioning must be strictly conducted in accordance with established procedures: Prior to startup, first activate the shaft seal water and adjust it to the specified pressure. Fully open the inlet valve. For non-backflow pumps, water must be injected. After opening the outlet valve to one-quarter, initiate startup; During operation, monitor flow rate, head, current, vibration, and bearing temperature (temperature rise ≤35°C, maximum ≤75°C). Mechanical seal leakage should be ≤3-5 ml/h. Before stopping the pump, flush with clean water for 30 minutes, close the outlet valve first, then shut down the pump, and finally close the shaft seal water and inlet valve. It is strictly prohibited to fully open the outlet valve when stopping the pump to prevent water hammer. Throughout the entire trial operation process, ensure that parameters remain stable, avoid cavitation and overload conditions, to ensure safe operation of the equipment.
Common Problems During Feeding of Slurry Pumps
When a slurry pump malfunctions during operation, the first step is to identify the cause of the failure. Corresponding repair measures should be taken based on the characteristics of the failure and maintenance experience.
Aspects to Pay Attention to for Slurry Pumps to Run Stably and Efficiently in Series

The advantage of slurry pumps in series is that multiple pumps are arranged in one pump station, which is convenient for installation, maintenance, operation and management, with a total low cost, it can realize overall automatic management. The following aspects should be noted when selecting slurry pumps in series:
The Hazards to Slurry Pumps if Running in a Low Flow Area for a Long Time
The slurry pumps we often use are a type of centrifugal pump. It mainly drives the slurry mixture to rotate through the high-speed rotating impeller blades, and throws out the slurry to achieve the purpose of transportation.
The methods for adjustment the flowrate of slurry pumps
The flowrate adjustment method of slurry pump can be selected in various ways according to different needs and occasions. The following are some common flowrate adjustment methods:
Five Main Reasons for the Blockage of Slurry Pumps
Uneven medium density is one of the reasons for the blockage of slurry pumps. When the medium density is uneven, the pump may vibrate at the beginning of the startup, but this vibration usually disappears when the pump starts normally.
