Duplex PD FXG
Positive Displacement sludge pumps ideally suited to development phase and shaft bottom applications.
Scamont FXG Positive Displacement Sludge Pump
Positive displacement sludge pumps ideally suited to development phase and shaft bottom applications
The Scamont FXG pump is a smaller class of pump that operates on the basis of double action technology within the fluid end.
This pump is ideally suited for applications that require less volume and lower pressures. The Scamont FXG is firmly established as the pump of choice in the early stages of mining development projects when space and mobility are key requirements. The FXG is also widely used on drilling rigs.
Specifications
Recommended Motor Size: 30 kW
Larger motors can be installed however maximum pressure cannot be exceeded.
Recommended NPSHr: 9.8kPa (gauge)
Suction lines longer than 6 metres will result in a greater NPSHr.
Please contact a Scamont representative to assist. Negative suction heads are possible when pump is properly primed, contact Scamont representative for assistance.
Materials of Construction
Scamont Engineering can alter the materials of construction for any application including mud and acid water.
