Tobee® 18x16TU-G Gravel Pump is designed for continuous handling of the most difficult higher abrasive slurries, containing solids too large to be pumped by a standard slurry pump, The 18x16 gravel pump is widely used for Sand Excavation, Coal Washery, Power Plant, Mineral Processing Plants, Other industries.
Design Features:
• The unique segmented clamp ring on larger size units and solid on smaller pumps, facilitates casing rotation to any angle, reducing the need for costly high wearing bends. Minimal maintenance is required.
• Impeller expulsion vanes reduce gland pressure and intrusion of high concentrations of solids in the gland area. Efficiency is maintained by minimising suction side recirculation.
• Specially designed and shaped impeller vanes allow the handling of extraordinarily large particles. The unique casing design and sealing vanes prevent abrasive solids intrusion at the sealing faces.
• The large, robust casing has been designed to reduce internal velocities resulting in minimum efficiency loss and improved casing wear life. The casing is made up of three components to reduce maintenance time and costs associated with a one piece design.
