Heavy-Duty Trash Pumps Thomson Pumps

Description Of Heavy-Duty Trash Pumps Description

Thomson Pumps’ Heavy-Duty Trash Pumps are adaptable pump options made to manage liquids and solids in tough situations. They can efficiently handle sand, sewage, sludge, abrasive materials, and other viscous liquids.

These pumps provide dependable performance under challenging operating circumstances and are appropriate for use in waste treatment, mining, water management, and construction.Thompson’s trash pumps are the preferred pumps for tough jobs where a wet priming pump capable of handling large solids or abrasive material is needed.

The heavy-duty construction provides longer life, economical operations, and lower fuel costs. The quality and dependability engineered into each heavy-duty trash pump provide the high performance you need to get the job done quickly. Thompson’s rugged trash pump provides an economical self-primer with simple low-cost maintenance for flood control, dewatering and sewage bypass. Able to handle solids up to 3 inches, the HT is available in sizes from 4 to 8 inches.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

Thompson’s HT pumps require the casing to be initially filled with water prior to operation. As the impeller turns, the center of the impeller creates a low-pressure area allowing the water and air to separate with water recirculating inside the pump casing. Air will then escape through the discharge allowing the pump to achieve full prime.
