Wilden Turbo-Flo Pumps for Mining & Heavy Slurry

Mining is hard on pumps in two ways at once. The slurry is abrasive and full of grit, so anything that spins wears out fast. And a sump has a habit of running dry the moment nobody’s watching, which finishes off most pumps for good. An air-operated diaphragm pump laughs at both — and Turbo-Flo is the version Wilden built specifically for the heavy end.

It moves abrasive, solids-laden slurry and it runs dry without harm, so an empty sump is a shrug, not a service call. Rugged metal construction and hard-wearing wetted parts soak up the abrasion, and with no shaft seal there’s no seal for the grit to destroy — which is how most slurry pumps actually die.

We supply Turbo-Flo genuine for tailings, dewatering and process-slurry duties. Tell us about the slurry — how big the solids are, how concentrated, how abrasive — and we’ll spec the right build and diaphragm for it.
