Pump for oil/water sandy service
(OP)
Hello Everyone!
I need to choose the pump for water/oil sandy service: the blend is to be pumped fro the atmospheric tank - 0.3 m static head to the vessel with 6 barg pressure. The blend contents the significant amount of sand - upto 3%. 80 cub.m/h is the required capacity
can you please advise me the vendor and issues that you think I need to pay attention during a selection process
thanks in advance,
Joisy

He is knowledgeable and experienced, confident in his work and pays attention to the customer. So, I suppose I am recommending REDA.

Warman and GIW are two that come to mind although there are other good manufacturers. Certainly talk to REDA since someone has taken the time to recommend them. I tend to shortlist on the basis of local support.
You should be talking about materials; elastomers will give you a long life abrasion-wise, but many are affected by oils.
You will probably wind up with a hard chrome iron impeller and perhaps a volute polyurethane liner but this depends on the liquid properties/analysis and how long you want the pump to last. Sometimes I use a cheap cast iron pump on this sort of duty if it is only temporary.
