The WAD Weak Abrasive Duty Slurry Pump is a high-performance, cantilevered horizontal centrifugal pump specifically engineered for the efficient transport of low-density slurries. Designed to replace L/M series models, the WAD pump excels in demanding industrial environments, providing a compact footprint without compromising on volumetric efficiency or durability.
Ideally suited for sectors including metallurgical processing, coal mining, and building material production, this pump integrates advanced sealing technology and wear-resistant materials. Whether handling alumina, phosphate, or chemical fertilizers, the WAD series ensures stable operation and reduced downtime through its precision-engineered shaft and bearing assembly.
| Pump Type | WAD (Weak Abrasive Duty) | Structure | Cantilevered Horizontal Centrifugal |
|---|---|---|---|
| Application | Low Density Slurries | Impeller Material | Moulded Elastomer or Hard Metal |
| Liner Options | Interchangeable Metal or Rubber | Sealing Method | Centrifugal or Gland Shaft Seal |
| Bearing Type | Heavy-duty Roller Bearings | Casing Material | Cast or Ductile Iron |
| Key Industries | Mining, Coal, Chemical Fertilizer | Design Focus | High Speed, Small Volume |
Equipped with interchangeable hard metal and moulded elastomer liners to withstand abrasive slurry flow.
Tapered mating faces allow for positive alignment and rapid component replacement during servicing.
Centrifugal seals eliminate the need for sealing water in most duties, reducing utility costs.
Engineered to operate at high speeds with small volumes to save valuable floor area in plants.
A large diameter shaft with short overhang minimizes deflection and ensures smooth operation.
Effective across copper, iron ore, gold, potash, and water sewerage utility operations.
Standardized interchangeable liners and impellers for flexible inventory management.
Convenient impeller adjustment positioned below the bearing housing for easy tuning.
Support for both centrifugal and gland seals to match specific process requirements.
Removable bearing cartridges enable rapid inspection of heavy-duty roller bearings.
Split outer casing halves provide high operational pressure capabilities and easy access.
Deep side sealing vanes reduce recirculation and relieve seal pressure effectively.
| Feature | Standard Slurry Pump | WAD Series Pump |
|---|---|---|
| Maintenance Frequency | High (Frequent liner wear) | Low (Wear-resistant liners) |
| Water Consumption | High (Requires flush water) | Ultra-Low (Centrifugal seal) |
| Floor Space Requirement | Large | Compact/Optimized |
| Installation Speed | Standard | Fast (Positive alignment) |
| Operational Lifespan | Moderate | Extended (Heavy-duty shaft) |
The WAD pump is designed for low-density slurries in mining (gold, copper, iron ore), coal, electric industry, chemical fertilizers, and water sewerage utilities.
Yes, the centrifugal shaft seal allows a large percentage of duties to be performed without the need for sealing water, reducing utility requirements.
Depending on the slurry characteristics, you can choose between moulded elastomer (rubber) or high-hardness metal for both the impeller and the liners.
It utilizes a large diameter shaft with a short overhang to minimize deflection and vibration, supported by heavy-duty roller bearings in a removable cartridge.
Yes, the WAD pump features a convenient impeller adjustment mechanism located in a position below the bearing housing for easy access.
The split outer casing, made of cast or ductile iron, provides high pressure capabilities and simplifies the process of replacing wear liners.
