Slurry pumping, solids handling magnetic drive centrifugal pump
The TB Series From Enine pump&valve can handle slurries with solids concentrations of up to 30% and particle sizes to 6mm in size are possible.
TB Series Techniflo Mag Drive Centrifugal Pump clearance rings restrict solids greater than 0.1mm from entering the containment shell area, keeping all bearings and critical flow paths clear. This enables the centrifugal pump to successfully handle solids.
Solids enter the centrifugal pump through the suction and pass out through the discharge nozzle. Some of the solids will try to leak around the impeller past the wear rings. The leakage past the front wear rings simply returns the particles directly to the suction flow.
However, leakage past the back wear rings could bring particles in contact with the inner magnets, the containment shell and the radial bearings. Fortunately, wear rings restrict solids > 0.005
