Vortex and
grinding pumps
Vortex pumps are able to handle liquids with high solid content, even nearly sizing the discharge diameter. While grinding pumps include the grinding and fluid pumping features. The impeller and knife rotation causes a great pit liquid turbulence, attracting the liquid and solids to pump suction flange and avoiding big solid or greasy parts settlement
Azcue Pump
VRX Series
Vertical semi submersed pump

The pumping action is produced by the impeller vanes rotation causing a vortex or turbulence. The open impeller is axially displaced from pump suction, enabling a free solids passage. Oil filled column for mechanical seal cooling and bottom bearing lubrication, enabling pump dry running
