SPA / SPB
SPA / SPB Series Filter Press Feed Pump
Filter press feed pump for rising-pressure batch duty.
- Flow range
- 10 – 6,000 m³/h
- Head range
- 5 – 75 m
- Bore
- 50 – 500 mm
- Family Slurry Pumps
Series overview
SPA and SPB are specified for filter press charging, where the pump starts on a low-pressure, high-flow line and finishes against a closed, high-pressure press. They are used on tailings, concentrate and sludge dewatering circuits.
Design features
- Handles the falling flow, rising pressure characteristic of press filling
- Robust wet end for thickened tailings and concentrate
- Matched to plate-and-frame press circuits
