XU Medium Duty Slurry Pump
XU series pumps
• Coal Preparation & Washing
Engineered for coal slurry duty — the XU's metal construction and optimised five-vane impeller handle medium-to-coarse coal particles with superior wear resistance, making it the go-to choice for coal washing plants.
• Power Plant Ash & Coal Handling
Transports coal slurry, ash dregs, and ash slurry in thermal power stations where large abrasive particles and high concentrations demand a rugged, non-lined metal pump.
• Mining Mill Discharge — Medium to Coarse Slurry
Ideal for grinding mill discharge where particle sizes are too large for rubber-lined pumps — the XU passes coarse solids that would destroy conventional slurry pumps.
• Mineral Processing & Tailings
Handles abrasive mineral concentrates and tailings with wide particle size distribution in gold, copper, and iron ore processing circuits.
• Phosphate & Fertilizer Processing
Pumps highly abrasive phosphate slurries in fertilizer plants — a duty where the XU's extended wear life and interchangeability with AH® series deliver the lowest total cost of ownership.
