Vertical Froth Pump

What is a Vertical Froth Pump?

A vertical froth pump is a type of froth slurry pump designed to handle frothy and aerated slurry in flotation processes. It improves pumpability by separating air from the slurry, ensuring stable flow without air locking. Vertical froth pumps are widely used in mining, coal preparation, and chemical industries.

How Does a Vertical Froth Pump Work?

The vertical froth pump operates by creating an open vortex inside the sump through the rotation of the impeller. The tangential inlet and conical tank design enhance vortex formation, allowing air to separate from the slurry. This results in smooth, high-capacity pumping with minimal pulsation.

Vertical Froth Pump Models

Available models include 2QV-AF, 3QV-AF, 4RV-AF, 6SV-AF, and 8SV-AF, covering a wide range of capacities and applications.

Applications

Vertical froth pumps are widely used in mining flotation, coal washing, mineral processing, and chemical slurry transfer.

Vertical Froth Metal Grout Mixer Pump

Froth pumps, also known as foam pumps, are a kind of vertical tank slurry pumps. They are used for flotation process where froth is innevitable.

AF Vertical Froth Pump

The AF pumps are designed to increase the pumping ability of frothy slurry. Air is separated from the slurry in a vortex created by the impeller rotation and the tangential inlet to the pump’s conical sump. This results in more efficient pumping at higher capacities and a smooth operation, free from pulsations caused by air locking
