Explore Our Pump Selection
Flooded suction pumps
Flooded suction pumps operate efficiently using gravitational force, eliminating the need for initial priming. This ensures smooth, continuous performance, simplifying operations and enhancing reliability.
- Operate using gravity feed
- No need for initial priming
- Ensures continuous and smooth operation
- Ideal for reliable, stationary setups
Self-priming pumps
Our self-priming pumps perform effectively above water level by utilizing powerful suction, similar to industrial wet-dry vacuum systems, to efficiently draw up mud and slurry. Their portability and ease of use make them an ideal choice for diverse operational scenarios.
- Designed to function above the water level
- Use strong suction, similar to industrial wet-dry vacuums
- Highly portable and easy to operate in varied field conditions
- Excellent for mobile slurry and mud pumping
Submersible Slurry pumps
Unlike conventional pumps, submersible slurry pumps have the pumping mechanism submerged directly in the fluid, eliminating priming requirements. This innovative design significantly simplifies operations, enhances usability, and ensures consistent performance in challenging pumping applications.
- Fully submersible in slurry or fluid
- Eliminate the need for priming
- Provide direct pumping from the source
- Simplifies complex pumping operations and offers consistent performance

FAQs
What is a slurry pump, and how does it differ from standard pumps?
A slurry pump is specifically designed to handle mixtures of liquid and solid particles, known as slurries. Unlike standard pumps, slurry pumps are built with robust materials and components to withstand the abrasive and corrosive nature of slurries, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications.Dredging typically involves specialized machinery like hydraulic dredging equipment, vacuum dredging equipment, suction dredging equipment, and sand dredging equipment. At Plus Pumps, we supply and manufacture a range of systems designed for both shallow and deep-water operations, suitable for rivers, lakes, ponds, and coastal environments.
What are the main types of slurry pumps available?
The primary types include:
- Centrifugal slurry pumps: Utilize a rotating impeller to move slurries.
- Submersible slurry pumps: Operate while submerged in the slurry.
- Vertical slurry pumps: Installed vertically, suitable for sumps or pits.
- Horizontal slurry pumps: Positioned horizontally, commonly used in various industries.
- Hydraulic slurry pumps: Powered by hydraulic systems, offering high efficiency.
How do I choose the best pump for slurry applications?
Selecting the best pump for slurry involves considering factors like slurry composition, particle size, concentration, temperature, and the required flow rate and head. Consulting with experienced slurry pump manufacturers like Plus Pumps ensures optimal pump selection for your specific needs.
What industries commonly use slurry pumps?
Slurry pumps are utilized across various sectors, including:
