handling abrasive, and high-viscosity slurries with solid content
The ODS diaphragm slurry pump is commonly used in the application of abrasive, viscous, or corrosive liquids. Industries including Mining, Construction/Cement, Wastewater Treatment, Chemical & Petrochemical, Food Processing, Pulp & Paper, Agriculture, Oil & Gas, Power Generation
- Delicate crystal slurries
- Highly concentrated and viscous slurries
- Highly abrasive slurries
- Corrosive slurries with varying pH levels
- Large solids in complex slurry matrices
- Extremely volatile slurries
- Sensitive and unstable materials
- Air-entrained and shear-sensitive liquids
These pumps are valued for their durability, ability to handle solid-laden liquids, and self-priming design.
- Improved Efficiency: The spring assist mechanism optimizes energy use by aiding diaphragm movement, resulting in less power consumption compared to standard diaphragm pumps.
- Spring-Assisted Return Stroke: Reduces mechanical stress on the diaphragm, leading to smoother operation and reduced maintenance.
- Self-Priming: Capable of drawing fluids from below the pump, making installation easier and more flexible.
- Variable Flow Control: Adjustable flow rates, making the pump versatile for various fluid handling needs.
- Versatility: Effective at handling both low and high-viscosity fluids, along with solids, which is critical in many industries like mining, wastewater treatment, and chemical processing.
- Minimal Maintenance: Diaphragm pumps are relatively low maintenance compared to other types of slurry pumps, especially when dealing with challenging materials.
In summary, ODS diaphragm slurry pumps are well-suited for any industry that involves the transfer of thick, abrasive, or corrosive liquids with solid content, offering reliability, durability, and low-maintenance operation.
This spring assist pump is offered in three valve options for suction and discharge, providing flexibility for a wide range of applications. These configurations are designed to meet diverse performance needs, ensuring suitability for different operational requirements.
- Type Q: Quick-Opening Check Valve
Included with all pumps unless otherwise specified, the Type Q valve is ideal for most applications. It requires minimal maintenance and attention and can be easily cleaned by simply removing two nuts. - Type B: In-Line Ball Check Valve
The Type B valve features a streamlined internal design that minimizes the risk of material clogging or blockage. It’s ideal for applications where maintenance is infrequent, and reliability is key. - Type F: Flap-Check Valve
The Type F flap-check valve is designed to allow large, pipe-sized solids to pass through without clogging. Its removable cover and flap make it easy to inspect and clean without having to disconnect the pipeline.
Our extensive expertise allows for the selection of optimal controllers tailored to your specific application needs:
- Adjustable Variable Timer: This timer precisely controls pumping cycles and discharge duration and is housed in a durable NEMA Type 4 enclosure.
- Operational Flexibility: Includes:
- Standard single pump controller
- Multi-range controllers with remote start/stop capabilities
- 4-20 MA automated controllers for dynamic adjustments
- Discharge stroke position sensor with proximity switch
- Pump stock control by a magnetic disc with a sensor
- Multi-pump synchronization for enhanced operational efficiency
- Air Header: The air header is a manifold that distributes compressed air to the pump chamber, featuring a solenoid valve, air regulators, an air muffler for exhaust, a pressure gauge, and piping for airflow and pressure control. It comes in three sizes—3/8”, 3/4”, and 1-1/4”—and can be chosen based on the pump size.
- Air Chamber: These are optional accessories used in applications with high suction and/or discharge head requiring, the air chamber acts as an accumulator, preventing water hammer, reducing noise, and minimizing pulsations.
