What are the functions of Horizontal centrifugal pumps?

Horizontal centrifugal pumps usually are used for slurry services, although vertical and other types of pumps are favored for some specific applications.Centrifugal pumps for handling slurries have features tailored to the particular service that reflect the corrosive or abrasive nature of the slurry and the solids concentration. These may include choice of materials, use of liners and even different driver sizing.The first major requirement of a slurry pump is to provide adequate service life. Erosion and corrosion effects of slurries, such as the impingement of high velocity flow of liquid/solid mixtures, are really challenging. In many applications, some solids in the mixture are larger than usually specified particles; so, the pump should be able to pass them without any damage or operational problems.

Slurry pumps are a heavy and robust version of centrifugal pumps, capable of handling tough and abrasive duties.Slurry pumps should also be considered a generic term, to distinguish them from other centrifugal pumps mainly intended for clear liquids.
Applications
Slurry pumps are used to move mixtures of liquid andsolids in many industries with a broad spectrum ofapplications, for example mine drainage, dredging of settling lagoons and pumping of drilling mud.
