GIW® slurry pumps:
LCC-M
A high-efficiency slurry pump with excellent wear properties over a broad operating range. The wetted pump end (casing, impeller and suction cover / liner) is made of white cast iron with a high chromium content. Design optimised for easy dismantling and reassembly for maintenance and inspection work. The maximum permissible working pressures are between 8 and 16 bar, depending on the pump size. Perfectly suited for transporting fluids containing hardly to slightly abrasive solids. Ideal for sludges, classes 1 to 2.
LSA-S
Premium design white cast iron pump for long service life handling severe slurries. The maintenance-friendly single-wall construction and heavy section white cast iron wet end combined with the cartridge bearing assembly provide maximum reliability, a long service life and ease of maintenance.
