WEIR MINERALS INTEGRATES KEY BRANDS IN MUDFLOW™ PUMP
Integrated options are what separates tools suppliers from answer providers, argues Marnus Koorts, basic manager pump merchandise at Weir Minerals Africa – and the lately launched Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump exhibits how that is done.
This dredge/excavator-mounted, mud-pumping innovation was launched final yr, after being developed in response to a problem which a customer faced, says Koorts. It is a heavy responsibility hydraulic submersible slurry pump designed for abrasive purposes and large particle dealing with. Its application is primarily in reprocessing and relocating tailings ponds, maintaining water retention dams and managing slimes and sludge ponds.
“The Multiflo Mudflo pump efficiently combines components of the Warman MGS submersible slurry pump-end, and a customized Multiflo designed bearing assembly coupled to a hydraulic motor,” he says. “Another key ingredient is the pairing of twin Multiflo CB33 hydraulic cutters with Weir ESCO excavation enamel.”
The cutters mechanically agitate the settled solids, allowing abrasive and highly charged slurries and dust to be efficiently pumped. He emphasises that the components making up the Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump are drawn from Weir Minerals proven manufacturers, and are rigorously combined to supply an built-in answer that saves customers money and time. It also reduces environmental impression, by avoiding the expensive and energy-intensive course of excavating and trucking the material off website.
“The pump design consists of Weir Minerals’ Ultrachrome A05 chrome alloy casting for top wear resistance,” he says. “There can additionally be a suction strainer to forestall excessively large particles clogging the pump.”
This ensures that the unit delivers optimal uptime alongside excessive performance ranges: the Mudflo™ 200 pump is able to pumping between one hundred fifty m3/h and 1,200 m3/h, up to a head of 82 metres. The pump can handle a most particle size of 80 mm, and a maximum liquid temperature of 35°C.
“While our integration of products has grown organically through the years, it has turn out to be extra systematic and deliberate as our product range has grown and turn into more diverse,” says Koorts. “The means we’ve developed this answer exhibits the progress lately towards integrating our product lines to add value to our choices.”
He notes that the process of ETO ensures that solutions developed by Weir Minerals’ engineering groups deliver extra worth than the sum of their element components. In this case, the company’s dewatering specialists have been in a position to draw on one of the best know-how from Weir Minerals’ Multiflo®, Warman® and Weir ESCO® brands – combining them with advanced hydraulics to create an revolutionary result.
“Our extensive footprint in the subject and our close collaboration with customers every day provides us a detailed understanding of their specific necessities,” he says. “We can subsequently be sure that our improvements are fit for purpose, being primarily based on our considerable ETO capability and technical excellence.”
