- Select the impeller design that best handles the slurry's characteristics (e.g., closed impellers for abrasive slurries, open impellers for large particles).
Wear Factors: Impellers are subject to high levels of wear due to the abrasive nature of slurries.Materials: Common materials for impellers include high-chrome alloys, natural rubber, and polyurethane.

a. Manufacturer’s Selection Chart:
One of the most significant advantages of vertical multistage centrifugal pumps is their compact footprint. In deep pit applications, space is often at a premium, and the vertical design allows for efficient use of limited space. These pumps are designed to handle high pressures while occupying minimal horizontal space, making them ideal for applications where surface area is restricted. The multistage configuration also enables these pumps to deliver high pressure over long distances, which is particularly useful in deep pit environments where the pump needs to lift slurry from significant depths. By optimizing the design of vertical multistage centrifugal pumps, engineers can ensure that these pumps provide reliable performance in even the most confined spaces.

Tailings Management with OEM Horizontal Slurry Pumps
When deciding between a vertical inline pump and a horizontal inline centrifugal pump, several factors should be considered. Space constraints, maintenance requirements, and the specific needs of the application all play a role in determining the best pump for the job. High pressure vertical pumps are ideal for applications where space is limited and high pressure is needed, while horizontal inline centrifugal pumps offer ease of maintenance and versatility across a wide range of applications. In line vertical pumps provide a compact, efficient solution for systems where space is at a premium, and vertical stage pumps are the go-to choice for high-pressure applications requiring a compact design. Understanding the unique advantages of each pump type will help you make an informed decision that ensures optimal performance and efficiency in your fluid handling system.
5. Seals
Function: The pump casing contains the slurry and guides it through the pump.
Wear Factors: Casings can wear down due to the abrasive slurry and need regular inspection and maintenance.
