DARLING PUMPS SUBMERSIBLE PUMPS
Darling Pumps is a leading Indian manufacturer of submersible pumps, ISO 9001:2015 certified, with over 42 years of experience designing SMART pumping solutions for construction, mining, municipal, industrial and agricultural applications. Pankaj Enterprises supplies the full Darling Pumps submersible range — dewatering, waste water & non-clog, slurry, and clear & raw water pumps — backed by genuine spares and after-sales support.
Submersible Slurry Pump
Heavy-duty pumps engineered to hydraulically transport slurry — a mixture of liquid, usually water, and abrasive or non-abrasive solid particles. Available across Dredger, 4HD and Cantilever series, each customised for particle size, specific gravity, concentration and shape.
Product Description
Slurry can be classified as non-settling or settling, and selecting the right pump depends on particle size, the specific gravity of both solids and liquid, slurry concentration and particle shape. Darling Pumps offers the Dredger (4DRR) series with a semi-open, abrasion-resistant impeller and built-in agitator & jetting arrangement for desettling, and the 4HD series with a replaceable twin volute diffuser and a unique jacketed design that keeps pumping in small pits while guarding against dry running at liquid temperatures up to 90°C.
For extreme abrasive duty, the Cantilever (CL) series eliminates submerged bearings, stuffing box or shaft seal entirely — anti-friction, grease-lubricated bearings sit outside the slurry path, so there is no need for a service-water flushing pump.
Applications
- High abrasive slurries
- Mill scale, iron ore & pellet slurries
- Mineral ore processing units
- Ash & coal handling plants
- Granite & marble slurry
- Industrial waste removal
- Jack well / intake well cleaning
- Removal of sand deposition at dam galleries & penstock tunnels
