Granite Slurry Pumps
Granite processing generates fine, highly abrasive slurry from cutting and polishing. HET slurry submersible pumps are engineered to handle fine abrasive solids and settled granite slurry without clogging.
The Granite Challenge
Granite slurry contains fine abrasive particles that settle quickly and wear pump components rapidly. Blockage from settled fines and wear are the main issues at granite-processing plants.
What You Are Pumping
Granite slurry is fine, abrasive and fast-settling, with high solids content from cutting and polishing operations. It may also contain fibrous residue from processing aids.
Why It Is Difficult
Fine abrasive wear, rapid settling and the risk of clogging from settled fines are the key challenges. The pump must handle fine solids continuously without choking.
The HET Solution for This Application
NSEW — Slurry / Non-Clog Submersible Pump
Why HET for This Duty
HET non-clog slurry submersible pumps are engineered for fine and fibrous slurry where clogging is the primary risk, with application-based selection and performance testing.
Selection Considerations
Confirm flow, head, particle size and settling behaviour. For high-head granite-slurry transfer, the SSSEW family may be considered. Material selection is matched to abrasion demand.
