Heavy Slurry & Dredging Pumps
VHG15-HF
The Toyo VH range of amphibious pumps have been specially designed to handle very heavy and abrasive slurries in surface applications or in applications where the pump may be partially or totally submerged. These pumps are available in both horizontal and vertical versions with a single outlet.
These centrifugal pumps with semi-open impeller, feature a unique agitator design. This agitator lifts sediments into suspension, creating a slurry mixture. This enables continuous pumping of media with a high concentration of solids.
Robust construction, careful selection of materials and unique contour components have produced a pump with excellent abrasion resistance. These characteristics ensure long service life and economical operation.
The impeller, the wear plate(s) and the agitator are manufactured in cast chrome iron (24 to 28 % Cr).
A strong short shaft, supported by a series of carefully selected bearings and the double mechanical seal, operating in an oil bath, ensure perfect tightness in the hardest of conditions.
The design of the pump associated with a powerful SP electric motor (F class) allows the pump to be both air and water cooled.
VH pumps can handle slurries with solid content of up to 60 % by weight, particle sizes up to 80 mm and liquid temperatures up to 60°C with pH levels between 4 and 9.5. Special versions are available for liquid temperatures up to 80°C. The maximum operating depth is 30 m.
