The dredge pump contains a pump casing and an impeller. The impeller is mounted inside the pump casing and is attached to the drive motor via gearbox and shaft. The frontal portion of the pump casing is sealed using a suction cover, connecting directly to the dredge’s suction pipe. The dredge pump’s discharge is positioned near the top of the dredge pump and is connected to a separate discharge line.
The impeller is considered the core of a dredge pump and is similar to a fan that forces out air creating a centrifugal suction force. At the suction pipe, this vacuum absorbs the slurry and transports the material through the discharge pipeline.
amostechpumps long history in designing dredge pumps, resulted in a line of dredge pumps ranging from inlet diameters of 400mm up to 1400mm. Our CFD optimized pumps have an excellent suction performance, high efficiency, long wear life and require a minimum of maintenance. The pumps can be delivered in different types of wear resistant materials, and can be executed in a large number of different configurations. Our engineers can configure the right system for your job.
