Gold mining is one of the important mining industries in Australia and New Zealand involving pumping of a number of corrosive and hazardous slurries. Global Pumps, the experts in pumping technologies, offers Verderflex peristaltic hose pumps that can effectively pump highly-abrasive, corrosive and viscous fluids.
The Verderflex hose pumps do not have any seals, glands and valves and the only part of the pump that comes in contact with the fluid is the hose. The hose is made up of reinforced rubber, which is highly resistant to abrasion and corrosion. The Verderflex pumps are zero leakage pumps which means very little downtime and maintenance.
A number of goldmines in Australia have found using Verderflex hose pumps highly beneficial. With the traditional centrifugal pumps they have been facing lots of maintenance related problems, which cause a lot of downtime and loss of production hours. Many goldmines have successfully installed Verderflex hose pumps and they have been highly satisfied with the performance of the pumps.
Considering the reliability of the pumps, the goldmines have standardized on the Verderflex hose pumps. The engineers and other persons in the goldmines prefer to have these pumps to ensure continuous running of the plant. Some goldmines are replacing all their traditional pumps in the processing plant with the Verderflex hose pumps. The mining industries have also found that the life of hose of Verderflex hose pumps is much longer compared to the other similar pumps.
Here are some of the advantages of Verderflex hose pumps:
- Verderflex hose pumps allow dry running and self-priming
- They provide gentle pumping action
- Provide high suction lift
- The pumps can easily handle viscous fluids, and slurries containing solid particle
