What is a slurry pump?

Slurry pump is a type of centrifugal pump or submersible pump designed to pump liquids containing solid particles, which may also contain solvents, acids, alcohols or petroleum.

Mud pumps suffer additional wear and tear and are generally stronger than other pumps. The mud pump can be electrically or hydraulically driven.

The mud pump has a heavy-duty structure, which adds a large impeller diameter, shaft, bearing and internal dimensions, so it can withstand additional additional wear.

Centrifugal pumps are used to transport fluid by converting rotational kinetic energy into fluid kinetic energy of fluid flow. The fluid enters the pump impeller along or close to the rotating shaft, is accelerated by the impeller, flows radially outward into the diffuser or volute chamber (housing), and then flows out of the diffuser or volute chamber.
