Warman WBH

The Warman® WBH® slurry pump range offers more than a dozen enhancements to the already state-of-the-art Warman® slurry pumping technology, including the Warman Hi-Seal™ expeller.

Warman WBH
The Warman® WBH® pump is the world’s new standard for heavy duties. A wide variety of impellers and shaft seals provide a perfect fit for a wide range of applications. The WBH® pump is designed to provide excellent wear life while maintaining efficiency through 'one point adjustment' during the wear cycle for the best total operating cost.
 
The low-flow gland seal, expeller seal and mechanical seal options on the WBH® pump mean there is less dilution of the slurry and lower required flow of gland water.
 
Key features/benefits
 
The 'One Point' front liner adjustment feature allows an operator to both rotate and axially move the liner to minimise front impeller gap to reduce wear and maintain performance
Adjustment can be made while pump is running so no need to stop production. Wear components are designed and optimised using state of the art Computational Fluid Dynamics methods
Large capacity bearings which can withstand high loads including thrust while still providing long bearing life
Commercial labyrinth-style bearing end cover seals
Streamlined impeller and volute design flow paths that combine high efficiency and long life
Enhanced performance impeller and liner
High pressure rating with metal and rubber liners
Encapsulated rubber liners for longer life and to prevent liner extrusion or blow-out
Large diameter Warman® Hi-Seal® expeller for sealing at high intake pressures
Improved ease of maintenance and longer maintenance intervals
