Built for Tough Mining Applications
Pumping in mining is essential for dewatering, slurry transfer, and managing tailings. Applications face extreme abrasion, corrosion, and reliability demands. Efficiency and total cost of ownership are also key factors when selecting the right pump for the job.
Key Considerations
Mining pumps must handle abrasive slurries, aggressive chemicals, and challenging site conditions. Factors like solids handling, material compatibility, reliability, and maintenance requirements should guide your selection. Choosing a robust, application-specific solution helps reduce downtime, control costs, and improve operational efficiency.
Fluid Characteristics
From thick sludges to chemical dosing, understanding fluid properties is essential. Flow rates, viscosity, abrasiveness, and solids content all influence pump sizing and configuration for efficient, trouble-free operation.
Solids Handling
Mining fluids often contain high solids content. Selecting a pump that can manage both soft and hard particles without excessive wear is critical to maintaining reliability and reducing maintenance.
Budget Considerations
Whether prioritising a lower upfront cost or minimising lifetime operational expenses, we can recommend pump options that balance your performance needs with overall cost-effectiveness.
Peristaltic Pumps for Mining & Extraction
Enviroflex L Series peristaltic pumps are built for the mining industry. Their simple, rugged design handles abrasive slurries, aggressive chemicals, and high solid content with ease, providing reliable performance and lower maintenance costs over time.
The Hose is the Heart
The hose creates the pumping action and contains the fluid. As a global supplier of peristaltic hoses, we deliver tailored solutions to match your mining application.
Ease of Maintenance
Maintenance is straightforward—typically a simple hose change. This minimises downtime and keeps operations running smoothly.
Self-Priming & Dry Running
Peristaltic pumps self-prime easily and can run dry without damage, ensuring quick recovery after maintenance or interruptions.
Up To 6” Hose Size
With sizes up to 150mm (6” ID), the L Series is ideal for large flow rates and handling bigger solids.
Material Compatibility
Handles abrasive, viscous, and low-moisture materials with a wide choice of hose materials for chemical resistance.
Less Water
Peristaltic pumps efficiently move high-density fluids with larger particles, reducing water usage in mining processes
Air Operated Diaphragm Pumps for Mining & Extraction
Enviroflex AODD pumps are a reliable and cost-effective solution for mining operations where compressed air is available. Their simple design handles abrasive slurries, chemicals, and solids-laden fluids with ease. With excellent self-priming and dry running capability, they minimise downtime and are quick to maintain, making them ideal for harsh mining environments.
Reliable and Cost Effective
AODD pumps offer a low initial investment with robust performance, ideal where air is on-site.
Self-Priming & Dry Running
Like our peristaltic range, AODD pumps self-prime and tolerate dry running without damage.
Chemical compatibility
AODD pumps can handle harsh chemicals used in mining, with materials selected to suit your process fluids.
Ease of Maintenance
Simple, modular design keeps servicing straightforward—typically a wet side kit replacement.
Fluid Characteristics
Capable of pumping low to high viscosity fluids, solids-laden liquids, and shear-sensitive materials.
Suction Capability
Offers excellent suction performance, achieving up to 8m of lift for tough dewatering tasks.
