The Difference Between Mud Pumps And Slurry Pumps
Mud pump and slurry pump are both a kind of impurity pump. What are the differences between these two pumps that make it difficult for users to choose? 1. The difference in working principles The working principle of the mud pump is that the motor drives the piston through the link mechanism, which causes the change of the enclosed volume in the mud pump, and forms the change of the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the pump, thereby completing the water absorption and drainage process; while the working principle of the wear-resisting slurry pump is that the motor drives the impeller to rotate, that is, the impeller works on the slurry to increase the kinetic energy of the slurry. 2. The difference in the pumped medium Mud pump, as the earliest pump type, is generally made of cast iron. Its wear resistance is low. As an important part of drilling machinery, it can only be used to transport mud or slurry that contains suspended particles. Slurry pumps are main
