Enhancing Slurry Pump Performance and life with Hydra-Cell seal less pumps for Gland Seal Flush

Slurry pumps are critical components in industries such as mining, mineral processing, and wastewater treatment, where the transportation of abrasive and corrosive fluids is essential. These pumps face unique challenges due to the abrasive nature of the slurries they handle, leading to increased wear and tear and extremely high cost of ownership. To combat this…

Hydra-Cell® Replaces Piston Pumps to Reduce Maintenance

Pumping a suspension of bentonite at high pressure into boreholes during mining and tunneling operations is commonly used for stabilization and cooling. Holes from 6 to 20 inches in diameter (150 – 500 mm) are initially sustained with bentonite slurry. In loose soils, bentonite solidifies and maintains the integrity of the borehole wall. When drilling…
