pumping PULPS

In the mining industry, water is equivalent to money. Irrigating seals and diluting thick sludge its usually expensive, because the water used must be treated before and after the process. Peristaltic Albin Pumps have no seals to irrigate having the ability to pump thick pulps with 70% solids concentrations. The savings on centrifugal pumps are wide and this is just one of the benefits we offer since energy savings are also astonishing.

Handling abrasive and corrosive fluids, such as sludge and ore pulps typically used in mining operations, presents a challenge for any pump manufacturer. The high solids content and high concentration of acids are sufficiently defied in diaphragm pumps, centrifuges, and other pumps where the fluid is put in direct contact with the pump parts.

We pump all types of high- or low-grade pulp, including pyrites, copper, zinc, uranium, nickel, cobalt, silver, platinum, copper concentrates and relays, lead, zinc, etc. Also lime, sintered pulp or relave pulp or for filling in pasta with concentrations of up to 70%.

Slurry pulp Albin Pump ALH model has the ability to easily pump abrasive fluids such as sludge, relave pulps, and low- and high-law concentrates in the area of thickening tanks and filter press or filter band. Due to the high solids content in these applications, conventional pumps may fail, as the product is put into direct contact with metal parts, such as rotors, stators, impellers, steppes, and mechanical seals. In the ALBIN peristaltic pump, the hose does not fail due to abrasion.

Reduce your operating and maintenance costs by replacing your faulty centrifugal slurry transfer pumps with ALBIN peristaltic pumps.

Benefits of Albin Pump Peristaltic Pumps:

Significant reduction in water consumption
Reduction of up to 90% of electrical energy
Handling of the order of 70% solids
No flow reduction due to abrasion or pressure changes
