INNOMAG Solids Handling Pumps

Solids enter the pump through the suction and pass out through the discharge nozzle. Some of the solids will try to leak around the impeller past the wear rings. The leakage past the front wear rings simply returns the particles directly to the suction flow.
    However, leakage past the back wear rings could bring particles in contact with the inner magnets, the containment shell and the radial bearings. Fortunately, wear rings restrict solids larger than 0.005” from entering the containment shell area, keeping all bearings and critical flow paths clear.

We've also created a clear containment shell, so you can see that no solids reach the critical areas behind the impeller.
