Agitator Pumps

Agitator pumps - robust and up to any task

Agitator pumps are robust construction pumps in which an agitator is installed .This allows these special pumps topump out sand-containing dirty water, rainwater and groundwater without any problems .Since sludge pumps usually have a large flow rate, this can be done very efficiently. Whether the water is contaminated with silt, sand, mud, or betonite, agitator pumps are up to the task thanks to the agitator built into the pump to whisk the material being pumped. However, pumping a medium containing solids, such as water mixed with sand, is inevitably accompanied by heavy wear on the agitator pump, despite the agitator. For this reason, agitator pumps are usually made of particularly resistant materials, so that the pumps can easily withstand the loop effect caused by small stones and sand in the water. In particular, the pump's agitator is subjected to extremely high loads and must be very robust. Due to their robustness and their high flow rate, agitator pumps are used wherever water interspersed with sand and other solids has to be conveyed with the help of a pump. Pumps with agitators are used, for example, in quarries, in wet excavations and in sedimentation basins. Agitator pumps are also indispensable as construction pumps for dewatering in tunnel construction.

Important aspects when buying an agitator pump

The various models of agitator pumps differ, among other things, in theirmotor power and thus also in their maximum flow rate and head. Depending on how much water contaminated with sand, silt, grit or betonite you want to pump with the agitator pump and whether a height difference has to be overcome, you should choose a correspondingly powerful agitator pump. Thesize of the pump's screen hole must also be adapted to the medium to be pumped. The following applies: The larger the solids contained in the pumped medium, or in the water, the larger the pump screen hole must be. Otherwise, the water cannot be conveyed by the agitator pump due to the solids it contains, such as sand, without damaging the agitator and the other technical components of the pump. Furthermore, the various agitator pumps that we carry in our range are designed for different immersion depths. So before you make a decision on which agitator pump to buy, you should be clear about where the pump is usually used. In fact, to avoid damage to the agitator pump and, in particular, to the agitator, you need to pay close attention to the application for which the pumps were built. If a particularly large amount of material is conveyed by means of a pump, this usually takes some time. In order to shorten the waiting time, a high-performance agitator pump with a high flow rate is highly recommended in this case. More powerful agitator pumps that have a high flow rate are usually somewhat more expensive to purchase, but pay off in the long run. The high flow rate ensures that further work steps can be started more quickly due to time-saving pumping. Significant efficiency gains can therefore be achieved with a pump with a high flow rate . In addition, high-quality pumps and the agitator installed in them have a longer service life, so that the high initial investment quickly pays for itself. In order to be able to leave the pump working unattended and also to be able to usefully bridge the time in which the pump is working, it is advisable to choose an agitator pump that is safe to run dry. Dry-running protected agitator pumps switch off automatically when no more pumped medium comes in. This prevents damage due to overheating and increases the service life of the pump.

The fact that the agitator pump or sludge pump is really safe to run dry is often ensured by a float switch, which switches the pump on or off when the water has reached a certain level. If a sludge pump with agitator is safe to run dry and has a float switch, then the position of a ball inside the sludge pump determines whether the agitator pump is running or not. This makes it much easier to use the sludge pump with agitator, because you can be sure that the sludge pump is safe to run dry. Since construction pumps with agitator usually do not have a fixed place of use, but are always used wherever you are needed, it is advantageous to selecta model that is as light and handy as possible. This way you can transport the construction pump with agitator quickly and easily from one place to another. If you have a construction pump with agitator, you are equipped for all situations in which it is necessary to pump water contaminated with sand or mud. An agitator pump performs well on the construction site, in landscaping and in agriculture.
