Commercial & Industrial Slurry Pumps Supply & Support

Slurry pumps use robust hydraulic designs and wear-resistant materials to move liquids containing abrasive or dense suspended solids.

Alton Pumps can help with pump selection, supply, installation, fault diagnosis, servicing and replacement for commercial and industrial abrasive-solids applications.

The complete duty is reviewed before equipment is selected, including flow, total head, liquid characteristics, operating pattern, controls, pipework and electrical supply.

HOW THE PUMP IS SELECTED

Correct Pump Duty
Comes First

Typical applications include Industrial sludge, Sand and sediment, Process residues, Settled solids, Abrasive water mixtures.

We assess the complete system to reduce settlement and excessive wear, including pump speed, pipe velocity, agitation requirements and chamber conditions.

For an initial review, send photographs of the pump and data plate together with the liquid type, pipe size, electrical supply, required flow, vertical lift and horizontal distance.
