The pump curve for the 12-Inch Booster Pump Diesel Powered Direct Drive 700HP illustrates flow performance against head based on water at a 900 RPM operating speed. This curve serves as a general reference for system planning and initial pump selection. Actual performance will vary depending on slurry density, solids concentration, particle size, and pipeline configuration. For accurate system sizing and optimal efficiency when handling high-solids materials, operators are encouraged to contact our team to develop a custom pump curve based on their specific application and material conditions.
This booster pump is widely used in mining operations to move high-density slurries, tailings, and abrasive materials over long distances. Its ability to handle large solids and high solids concentration supports continuous production while reducing wear and downtime in harsh mine environments.
In sand pits, quarries, and aggregate processing facilities, the pump supports material transfer, stockpile feeding, and pipeline boosting. The non-clog design ensures stable flow when handling coarse sand, gravel, and mixed debris common in aggregate operations.
The pump is applied in drilling mud circulation, cuttings transport, and waste slurry handling at upstream and midstream sites. Its high-torque diesel drive and solids-handling capability enable reliable operation in remote locations with challenging fluid characteristics.
Used as a booster pump in dredging pipelines, this unit increases discharge distance and production rates. It performs effectively in sediment-removal, channel-maintenance, and land-reclamation projects that require heavy slurry transport.
The pump supports transfer of viscous, abrasive, and chemically aggressive slurries in industrial processing environments. Material options and mechanical sealing systems help ensure performance and durability in continuous-duty chemical applications.
In paper mills and pulp-processing plants, pumps transport fibrous slurries, waste streams, and residual solids. Its non-clogging design reduces blockages from stringy materials while maintaining consistent flow rates.
The pump is well-suited for ash-handling systems at power generation facilities, efficiently moving abrasive fly ash and bottom ash slurries. High solids capability helps reduce water usage while supporting long-distance slurry transport.
The pump is used in industrial wastewater treatment for transferring thick sludge, grit, and settled solids. Its ability to handle large particles and variable solids concentrations makes it effective for demanding sludge pumping applications.
The mining operation was required to transport dense tailings slurry over an extended pipeline with varying elevations and long horizontal runs. As discharge distance increased, friction losses reduced pipeline pressure and slurry velocity, causing solids to settle in low-velocity zones. This resulted in frequent line flushing, accelerated pipe wear, and production interruptions, reducing overall plant efficiency.
The EDDY Pump’s 12-inch diesel powered direct drive booster pump was strategically installed at a mid-line location to provide additional head and stabilize system pressure. The booster operated in series with the primary pump, increasing discharge energy without forcing the main pump to run outside its optimal range. Its non-clog design and high solids-handling capability enabled it to process large particles and dense slurry consistently while maintaining target pipeline velocities.
With the booster pump in operation, slurry velocity remained uniform across the entire pipeline, eliminating settling and reducing the need for manual intervention. The system achieved higher, more consistent throughput, minimized wear on pipelines and pump components, and enabled uninterrupted long-distance tailings transport, improving overall operational reliability and cost efficiency.
This booster pump is designed to increase head and maintain slurry velocity within long or complex pipeline systems. It operates in series with a primary pump to compensate for friction losses, elevation changes, and extended discharge distances without overloading the main pump.
The pump is built to handle high-density slurries, including mine tailings, sand, gravel, ash, drilling mud, sludge, and other abrasive or debris-laden materials. Its non-clogging design allows it to pass large solids while maintaining consistent flow.
A primary pump initiates material movement from the source, while a booster pump adds energy downstream to maintain pressure and velocity. The booster does not replace the main pump but supports it by extending discharge distance and improving overall system efficiency.
Yes, the pump is engineered to operate at slurry concentrations of approximately 40-70% solids. This capability allows operators to move more material with less water, improving production efficiency and reducing water usage.
The 12-inch booster pump can pass solids up to approximately 11 inches in diameter. This reduces the risk of blockages and allows reliable operation when pumping coarse or mixed material.
The pump is designed for heavy-duty continuous operation in demanding environments. Its robust construction, low operating speed, and abrasion-resistant materials enable extended runtimes with reduced wear and maintenance requirements.
The unit is powered by a 700 HP diesel engine with a direct-drive configuration. This setup provides high torque and reliable performance, especially in remote locations where electrical power is limited or unavailable.
The booster pump is installed in line along the discharge pipeline at a location determined by hydraulic calculations. It operates in series with the primary pump to restore pressure and maintain slurry velocity across long distances or elevation changes.
Yes, the standard pump curve is based on water performance. Actual slurry characteristics such as solids concentration, particle size, density, and pipeline layout affect performance. A custom pump curve ensures accurate sizing and optimal efficiency for the specific application.
This booster pump is widely used in mining, dredging, sand and aggregate, power generation, oil and gas, industrial processing, wastewater treatment, and ash handling applications where long-distance slurry transport is required.
