The AF pumps are designed to increase the pumpability of frothy slurry. Air is separated from the slurry in a vortex created by the impeller rotation and the tangential inlet to the pump’s conical pump. This results in more efficient pumping at higher capacities and a smooth operation, free from pulsations caused by air locking.
AF vertical froth pump model 2QV-AF,3QV-AF,4RV-AF,6SV-AF,8SV-AF
Key Features
Integrated unit for layout flexibility
Smooth operation of the open vortex created in the sump and vertical “wet end”inlet prevents air locking
Cantilever design does not require submerged bearings or shaft seals
The conical tank design with its tangential inlet creates an open vortex
Wear resistant wet-end parts guarantees a long performance life
Pump shaft is carried in grease lubricated anti-friction bearings.
