Solids Handling Pumps
Details of AxFlow's extensive UK based capabilities when it comes to handling solid ladened liquids.
Solids handling pumps are designed to transfer liquids containing suspended or settled solids without excessive wear, blockage or product damage. Whether handling wastewater sludge, abrasive slurries or food products containing particulates, selecting the correct pump technology is essential for reliable operation and long service life.
At AxFlow, we supply a broad range of solids handling pump technologies from leading manufacturers, enabling us to recommend the most suitable solution based on your process requirements.
Liquid transfer pumps can be asked to handle several different types of solids. AxFlow UK specialise in pumps for sensitive solids and abrasive solids.
Choosing the Right Solids Handling Pump
There is no single pump suitable for every solids handling application. Selection depends on several operating factors, including:
- Solids size and concentration
- Fluid viscosity
- Abrasiveness
- Flow rate and pressure
- Shear sensitivity
- Temperature
- Installation and maintenance requirements
Our engineers assess the complete application to recommend the most appropriate pumping technology.
