Pumps • Slurry and Process

Pumps that keep material moving and downtime low

Songatech supplies heavy-duty slurry and process pumps for abrasive and corrosive duties across mining and mineral processing. Built for reliability and long service life, these pumps hold flow steady so your operation runs to plan.

Key facts

  • Applications: Slurry transfer, cyclone feed, mill discharge, tailings, water reclaim, process duties
  • Pump types: Horizontal centrifugal slurry pumps, vertical sump pumps, submersible pumps
  • Materials: High chrome alloy, rubber-lined, polyurethane, stainless steel
  • Capacities: From 5 m³/h to over 5 000 m³/h
  • Head range: Up to 120 m, depending on duty
  • Power: Electric, diesel, or hydraulic drive options

Overview

Mining operations need pumps that handle high solids without early failure. Songatech pumps use replaceable liners, oversized bearings, and robust seals to deliver steady performance on tough slurry and process duties.

Wear resistant Seal reliability Easy maintenance

Benefits

  • High wear resistance for abrasive slurries
  • Easy maintenance with replaceable wear parts
  • Wide range of sizes to fit plant layouts
  • Reduced downtime and lower total cost of ownership
  • Configurations for both wet and dry installations

Horizontal Slurry Pumps

For mill discharge, cyclone feed, and general slurry transfer. Available in high chrome or rubber-lined options. Large impellers for efficiency and wear life.

Primary slurry duty

Vertical Sump Pumps

For sumps, tanks, and pits. Cantilever design removes the need for submerged bearings. Ideal for continuous or emergency dewatering.

No submerged bearings

Submersible Pumps

Compact and versatile for slurries and dirty water. Electric submersible designs suit confined spaces. Materials chosen for abrasion resistance and long life.

Portable and compact

Process Water Pumps

For clean or lightly contaminated water. Stainless steel and alloys for corrosion resistance. High efficiency to cut energy use.

High efficiency

Quality assurance

  • Hydraulic performance testing per pump model
  • Material hardness and liner thickness checks
  • Seal and bearing inspections for reliability
  • Traceability and QA certificates available

Frequently asked questions

MaterialsWhich pump material should I choose
High chrome alloy suits very abrasive slurries. Rubber liners work best for fine particles. Stainless steel is used where corrosion is a risk.
ServiceHow often do pumps need maintenance
This depends on ore type and duty cycle. Regular checks of liners, impellers, and seals every few months extend pump life and prevent unplanned stops.
SparesCan Songatech supply spares
Yes. Impellers, casings, liners, shafts, and seals are stocked or made to order for fast turnaround.

Note. Final pump selection depends on duty type, flow rate, head requirement, and slurry characteristics.

Selection guide

Mill dischargeAbrasive, high solids

Recommended pump: Horizontal slurry pump. Material: High chrome or rubber. Built for continuous duty and heavy wear.

Cyclone feedMedium to high density

Recommended pump: Horizontal slurry pump. Material: High chrome. Delivers stable pressure to maintain cyclone efficiency.

Tailings and disposalCoarse and fine mix

Recommended pump: Horizontal slurry pump. Material: Rubber or high chrome. Sized for high flow abrasive mixtures.

Sumps and tanksSettled solids, dirty water

Recommended pump: Vertical sump pump. Material: Rubber-lined. Cantilever shaft avoids submerged bearings.

Water reclaimProcess or clear water

Recommended pump: Process water pump. Material: Stainless steel or alloy. High efficiency for low energy use.

Emergency and portableVariable slurry and water

Recommended pump: Submersible slurry pump. Material: Abrasion resistant alloy. Quick installation for temporary or confined duties.
