The energy-saving of slurry pumps can significantly reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs, thereby reducing the operating costs of enterprises.
Slurry pumps are widely used in industries such as mining, metallurgy, and power to transport high concentration and highly corrosive slurries. The efficiency of traditional slurry pumps is generally low (about 55% -75%), making them a "major energy consumer". With the promotion of the "dual carbon" policy and the rise in energy costs, the demand for high-efficiency and energy-saving equipment from enterprises is increasing day by day. By upgrading technology to achieve energy conservation, not only can electricity expenses be reduced, but downtime for maintenance can also be reduced, improving overall operational efficiency.
Two core paths for energy conservation and cost reduction
Energy consumption cost: Traditional slurry pumps have low efficiency and high power consumption, with a working efficiency of only 55% -75%. Energy saving slurry pumps use high-efficiency hydraulic models, with an efficiency increase of 78% -92% and a power saving rate of over 20%, which can significantly reduce unit transportation energy consumption and save electricity costs in the long run
Maintenance cost: Traditional slurry pump impellers and volutes wear out quickly and are replaced frequently. Energy saving slurry pumps use ceramic lined metal technology, with wear resistance more than 3.5 times that of high chromium alloys, extending component life, reducing replacement frequency and labor costs
In addition, the intelligent slurry pump can also detect abnormalities in advance through remote monitoring and fault warning functions, avoiding production losses caused by sudden shutdowns.
Additional explanation: Cost comparison between plunger pump and slurry pump
Although the initial purchase cost of a plunger pump is higher than that of a slurry pump, it has no impeller wear and lower energy consumption (such as in a case where the motor power was reduced from 200kW to 67kW), which can save a lot of electricity and maintenance costs in long-term operation. Therefore, despite the large initial investment, the comprehensive usage cost may be more advantageous.
Conclusion
The energy-saving transformation of slurry pumps can significantly reduce the operating costs of enterprises from two aspects: direct energy saving and indirect reduction of maintenance expenses. Especially suitable for high load and continuous operation scenarios, the investment payback period is usually short. The future trend will develop towards intelligence and efficiency, such as magnetic levitation drive, ceramic new materials, etc., further promoting the synergy of green low-carbon and cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
