Comparing Vertical and Horizontal Pumps: Key Considerations

The impeller is a rotating component within the pump that transfers energy from the motor to the slurry. It plays a significant role in creating the flow and pressure necessary to move the slurry through the system. Impellers for slurry pumps are typically heavier and more robust than those used in standard pumps to withstand the harsh conditions encountered in abrasive applications. Their design can vary, with options for different shapes and sizes to accommodate specific types of slurries.

The Role of Vertical Stage Pumps in High-Pressure Applications

4. Shaft Sleeves

Function: Shaft sleeves protect the pump shaft from the slurry and the mechanical seals.

Types:

b. Impeller Design:

Wear Factors: The backplate can wear due to slurry contact and mechanical stresses.
