Six example operating records from the AZL-specific table on physical PDF page 21. Ranges summarize printed points at each stated speed. Other vertical sizes and speeds remain in the source tables on pages 20–21.

Need a model-specific curve?

Provide the actual slurry and operating point so the proposed model, speed and material can be reviewed together.

Vertical Slurry Pump construction and operation

The vertical slurry arrangement places the hydraulic end below the mounting level with the motor supported above it. The dedicated drawing identifies the volute casing, impeller, rear liner, supporting plates, bearing body, motor support and discharge pipe.

Immersion length, mounting geometry and the operating liquid levels are central to the layout. The shared horizontal/vertical manual includes separate vertical performance tables; horizontal pump ratings must not be substituted. Plan the removal path and overhead lifting space before fixing the mounting plate and discharge pipework.

  • Dedicated vertical structureThe column, support and discharge pipe are part of the selected arrangement.
  • Motor above the liquidCoordinate deck elevation, liquid-level variation and the motor support together.
  • Vertical-specific tablesCompare the vertical pump records at their stated speed and outlet diameter.

Pump questions

What dimensions are needed before ordering?
Supply the mounting-plate elevation, sump depth, normal and minimum liquid levels, outlet position and lifting clearance. The selected column length and arrangement drawing must suit these dimensions.
How is the pump selected?
Start with flow, total dynamic head, slurry density, solids concentration and size, temperature, chemistry and installation. Review these together on the applicable curve.
Are the images dimensional drawings?
Catalogue drawings show the source construction. Family exterior references and illustrative components are labelled. Use the selected model’s approved arrangement drawing for dimensions and installation.
What is included in the quotation?
The selected supply scope, materials, interfaces, inspection requirements, spares and documents must be agreed in the quotation. An illustration alone does not define the delivered equipment.
What if there is no numerical table on this page?
Send the operating requirement for a model-specific curve review. A product introduction or family envelope cannot replace a selected pump curve.
How do I use this enquiry form?
Choose any model, installation and supply options above, complete the required fields, and prepare a draft. Review it before copying, downloading or opening it in your email application.
