Why are silicon carbide ceramic pumps becoming increasingly popular?

Slurry pumps are mainly suitable for industries such as mining, power plants, metallurgy, chemical engineering, petroleum, building materials, dredging, etc. They are vulnerable products. Currently, the slurry pump market is mainly dominated by metal pumps and rubber pumps, with many workstations facing the challenges of short service life and high frequency of replacement of flow components, and it is difficult to fundamentally improve this situation. Especially traditional metal slurry pumps cannot balance wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance. For harsh working conditions dominated by strong abrasive and corrosive media, the flow passage components of special alloy slurry pumps are prone to wear and corrosion.

 

Our silicon carbide (SiC), as a technologically mature wear-resistant material, has the characteristics of high hardness and stable molecular structure. The flow passage components of the slurry pump are made of ceramic made of silicon carbide material, which has good wear resistance, anti-corrosion, and high-temperature resistance, which can effectively compensate for the shortcomings of traditional metal slurry pump flow passage components.

The silicon carbide ceramic pump developed by the group has strong wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and impact resistance. Compared with traditional metal pumps, the service life of the flow passage components is 5-10 times that of metal pumps, which can reduce the frequency of component replacement, ensuring that the pump can operate in a long-term and efficient state while saving a lot of energy consumption.

The new generation of slurry pumps made of high-performance silicon carbide ceramic materials have excellent wear resistance, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, and impact resistance for flow components. Under the same wear conditions, the service life of high chromium alloy materials can be achieved by more than four times, greatly improving the service life of the pump, reducing equipment maintenance costs, and greatly improving equipment operation efficiency. In a certain mine, the service life of the silicon carbide ceramic slurry pump is more than 10 times that of a metal pump of an internationally renowned brand.
