The Type G (or GH) Gravel Pump is a high-performance industrial solution engineered specifically for the continuous handling of the most challenging, highly abrasive slurries. Unlike standard pumps, the G/GH series is optimized to transport slurries containing large solids that would typically cause failure in common pumping systems, making it an indispensable asset for heavy-duty industrial operations.
Designed for versatility and durability, these pumps excel in demanding environments such as mining operations, metal melting explosive-sludge removal, and river dredging. With the GH variant offering superior high-head capabilities, the series ensures efficient fluid transport through a wide wet-passage design and a robust construction that supports 360° discharge orientation for maximum installation flexibility.

| Casing Design | Single or Double Casing Options | Transmission Mode | Self-supporting or Integrated Gearbox |
| Lubrication Methods | Grease or Thin Oil Lubrication | Head Performance | High-Head (GH Series) |
| Primary Application | Mining, Dredging, & Sludge Handling | Seal Type | Packing Seal / Expeller Seal |
Utilizing Ni-hard and high chromium abrasion-resistant alloys to ensure longevity in the harshest abrasive environments.
Engineered for 24/7 heavy-duty cycles, effectively handling solids too large for conventional pumping equipment.
Optimized Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) ensures stable operation and prevents cavitation in deep-suction scenarios.
The discharge outlet can be oriented in any direction (360°), allowing for seamless integration into existing piping layouts.
Features a single casing connected by clamp bands, significantly reducing downtime during assembly and maintenance.
Available in both self-supporting bracket and pump-box integrated types to match specific power transmission needs.
Precise tracking of wear-resistant casting parts to ensure immediate replacement availability.
Automated alerts for lubrication cycles (grease/oil) to maximize pump service life.
Systematic tracking of high-chromium alloy erosion rates to predict maintenance windows.
Real-time monitoring of flow rates and head pressure for the GH high-head series.
Streamlined shipping for heavy-duty cantilever pump structures and integrated gearboxes.
Digital selection between single/double casing and various seal types based on slurry density.
| Metric | Standard Slurry Pump | G/GH Gravel Pump |
|---|---|---|
| Solid Handling Capacity | Limited to fine particles | Capable of handling large gravel/solids |
| Wear Life Cycle | Frequent liner replacement | Extended life via Ni-hard alloys |
| Installation Time | Complex piping alignment | Rapid setup via 360° discharge |
| Maintenance Cost | High (frequent unplanned stops) | Low (predictable wear cycles) |
| Operational ROI | Standard / Moderate | High due to reduced downtime |
The primary difference lies in the head capacity; while the G series is designed for general gravel slurry handling, the GH series is specifically engineered as a high-head pump for applications requiring greater discharge pressure.
The wet-parts of the G/GH pumps are constructed from Ni-hard and high chromium abrasion-resistant alloys, which provide extreme hardness and durability against coarse solids.
Yes, the design allows the discharge direction to be oriented in any direction within 360°, providing excellent flexibility for various site layouts.
The self-supporting bracket type offers two lubrication methods: grease lubrication for simpler maintenance or thin oil lubrication for more intensive operations.
They are widely used in mining for tailings and ore transport, in metal melting for explosive-sludge handling, and in dredging operations for river and coastal cleanup.
Depending on the application requirements and the nature of the slurry, these pumps can be equipped with either Packing Seals or Expeller Seals.
