Factors in solids density and size for accurate slurry calculations
Provides warnings for unsuitable configurations
PumpDim™ - select the right sized Metso pump for your application
- Critical flow velocity to avoid settling of particles in pipes
- The complete pipe head loss system curve when the static head, pipes, fittings, and other components are specified
- Pumping of froth when a froth factor is specified
- Effect of solids on the generated pump head and pump efficiency
- Recommends material for the pump wet end considering particle size and distribution
- Selects pump size for the specified duty and calculates required pump speed
- Calculates shaft deflection and bearing life at the duty point
- Recommends motor size and drive
- Calculates slurry density based on particle and liquid density, concentration, and tonnage
- Calculates actual flow through an existing installation based on pipe system, slurry properties, and pump speed
The PumpDim™ tool also allows for collaboration with a Metso Outotec pump specialist if required to check over any tricky applications.
