How Froth Flotation Works

Froth Flotation

To start with I will give you a simplified description of how selective froth flotation works, lets start over again with a description of the equipment and why it works. When the grinding circuit is finished with the ore it will be ground very fine and the density of the slurry will be between 30% to 45% […]

Hydrocyclone Feed Pump and Pressure

Cyclone

For a hydrocyclone to work at peak efficiency the volume of slurry and the feed pump delivery pressure must remain constant. If the cyclone feed pump is allowed to SURGE, the up and down pressure will cause poor separation at the point of high and low operating pressure. There is a cycle to a surging pump […]

SRL Pump Performance -Lubrication & Gland Water Packing

JACKING BOLT HOLES

As far as performance of SRL pump is concerned, it may be equipped with a VARIABLE SPEED DRIVE or the SIZE RATIO between the drive sheave on the motor and the one on the pump may be changed to increase or decrease RPM of the pump. To obtain maximum performance the distance between the impeller […]

SRL Pumps -Operating and Troubleshooting

SRL Pump

SRL Pump stands for Soft Rubber Lined, which means that it is designed to pump a slurry and is lined with soft rubber. There are other forms of lining that may be used for different types of acidic or highly abrasive slurries and of course companies experiment with different materials trying to increase the life […]

Troubleshooting Hydrocyclones

Troubleshooting Hydrocyclones

Here is a simple Table for Troubleshooting Hydrocyclones. Other Hydrocyclone Troubleshooting Tips: Underflow is too wet Apex is too large Vacuum control valve is open too far Inlet pressure is too low Pump is cavitating Underflow is too dry (cone is plugging) Apex is too small. Vacuum control valve is closed too far. Percent solids is too […]

Diaphragm Pumps

Diaphragm Pumps - 911Metallurgist

Adjustable Stroke Diaphragm Pump Simplicity and ease of discharge regulation — while in operation—is one of the many distinctive features of the Adjustable Stroke Diaphragm Pump. This is accomplished by means of a conveniently located handwheel which operates a heavy rod, moving the pivot end of the connecting rod closer to the fulcrum point of the […]
