Vertical Top Suction

The Hippo vertical Spindle Top Suction Slurry Pump Range is used in applications where high discharged pressures exist and pumping liquids with entrapped air (Froth Pumping). The all metal pump construction with High Chrome hydraulic design as standard, contributes durability and high efficiency. The pump can be manufactured out of all types of Duplex Stainless Steel Alloys e.g. (CD4MCu) for acidic environments. The Hippo pump range can be fitted with wide verity accessories to accommodate the client’s requirements.

Applications

The Hippo VT slurry pumps are excellent for dewatering and drainage pumping applications and can be used pumping liquids with entrapped air (Froth Pumping) applications.The combination of compact design with high-pressure capability makes the pumps suitable for use in pits, on pontoons or can be installed in a temporary or fixed installation. Can also be installed in series for accommodating very high heads like acid mine water drainage the installation design options provide the flexibility requirements to cover all industry needs. Some applications include:

  • General Hard De-watering & Drainage
  • Slag Pits
  • Tailings ponds
  • Slurry Froth Pumping
  • Mineral ProcessingPhosphoric Acid Plants
  • Mine De-watering
