   - Input your slurry properties and operating conditions into the software to get recommended pump models.

   - Type of Slurry: Determine if the slurry is abrasive, corrosive, or contains large particles.

Establishing a Pump Wet End Replacement Schedule

Wear Factors: Impellers are subject to high levels of wear due to the abrasive nature of slurries.Materials: Common materials for impellers include high-chrome alloys, natural rubber, and polyurethane.

A pump wet end replacement involves changing out the parts that come into direct contact with the pumped fluid, including the impeller, casing, and liners. Determining the best time to perform this replacement requires careful analysis of the pump’s operating conditions, the wear rate of the components, and the criticality of the pump in your process. By tracking runtime hours, monitoring performance metrics, and assessing wear patterns, you can develop a replacement schedule that minimizes downtime and ensures continuous operation. This strategy not only helps to maintain pump efficiency but also reduces the long-term cost of ownership by preventing major failures.

Materials: Liners are often made from high-chrome alloys, rubber, or other wear-resistant materials.
