Heavy duty froth pump for tough flotation froth duties
Designed to handle heavy froth, the Horizontal Froth pump has a unique inlet and impeller design that is very successful where others fail.
A large oversized inlet with a unique impeller inducer blade handles heavy froth and higher viscosity dense slurries with ease. The BHF/BLF/BMF line of horizontal froth pumps has proven valuable for very dense slurries where viscosity starts to become a pumping issue for the standard slurry pump.

BENEFITS
- Heavy duty construction with through-bolt design provides ease of maintenance and less down time
- Ductile iron fully lined casing provides durability, strength and long service life
- Large diameter, slow turning, high efficiency impellers maximize wear life and lower TOC
- Large, open internal passages reduce internal velocities maximizing wear life resulting in lower operating costs
- Unique impeller design for most difficult froth applications
- Thick elastomer or metal bolt-in liners provide superior corrosion resistance plus offer ease of liner change-out and intermixability to reduce over all maintenance costs and maximize wear life
- Minimal shaft/impeller overhang reduces shaft deflection and increases packing life
- Cartridge-style bearing assembly allows for maintenance in a clean environment without removal of the pump, resulting in reliable operation and prolonged bearing life
- Standard AH can be converted by replacing cover plate, throat bush and impeller
- Full flush, low flow or dry running centrifugal seals minimize water usage and operating costs
