The head, or the height to which a pump can raise the slurry, is another vital performance indicator for horizontal centrifugal slurry pumps. The head is directly related to the pump’s ability to overcome the pressure within the slurry transport system. This metric is typically measured in meters (m) and provides insight into the pump’s power to move slurry through pipelines and other components. The head is crucial for applications involving slurry transport using centrifugal pumps because it determines how efficiently the pump can transport slurry over long distances or through systems with varying elevations. Regular testing of head and pressure ensures that the horizontal centrifugal slurry pump meets the operational demands and maintains system efficiency.

Impellers are the rotating parts of sewage pumps that convert rotational energy from the motor into kinetic energy within the fluid. This transformation occurs through the design of the impeller blades, which are shaped to create a flow of water, pushing it outwards through the volute or the casing. The design of the impeller directly affects the pump's efficiency, capacity, and performance.
