The WAD pump is specifically engineered with interchangeable rubber and metal liners and a specialized impeller design to handle low-density slurries without excessive wear, ensuring stability in metallurgical and mining applications.
No. A large percentage of duties allow the use of the centrifugal seal, which effectively eliminates the need for external sealing water, reducing operational costs and complexity.
Depending on the application, you can choose between moulded elastomer (rubber) for better abrasion resistance in certain fluids or hard metal for higher durability in more aggressive environments.
It utilizes a large diameter shaft with a short overhang, which significantly minimizes deflection and vibration, supported by heavy-duty roller bearings housed in a removable cartridge.
Yes, the WAD pump is highly recommended for chemical fertilizer and phosphate production due to its ability to handle the specific densities and corrosive nature of those slurries.
The split outer casing, made of cast or ductile iron, provides high operation pressure capabilities and allows for easier access to internal wear liners during maintenance.
