Agitator pumps of Samec s.n.c
About Agitator PumpsFor industrial, mining, milling, and power plants or anywhere slurry solids have a tendency to accumulate, agitator pumps are the answer. Since water always flows to the path of least resistance, a pump without mechanical agitation will only pump the water, leaving the solids behind to accumulate around your pump intake, and eventually starving the pump by blocking the intake. Agitator pumps deliver kinetic energy (energy of motion) to slurry solids surrounding the pump intake, re-suspending them into a fluid state. These solids, which would have otherwise buried and starved the pump of liquid, are pulled into the pump and pushed on through the discharge keeping the intake clear and free of slurry accumulation.
Agitator Action
The agitator helps pump material from rest with minimal water content - maximizing tons/hour of solids transfer and eliminates pump downtime due to accumulation of solids at pump suction.
