SCHWING Stetter India with its strong presence in concrete construction equipment in India launched an exclusive range of SCHWING Sludge Pump System at IFAT India 2015. This marks the entry of SCHWING Stetter India into industrial, environmental and sewage works technology. SCHWING Sludge pump system is especially developed for industrial applications. It has fully automatic operations through remote monitoring.

SCHWING is one of the leading manufacturers of hydraulically driven twin-cylinder sludge pumps (KSP) and provides turnkey solutions for the transport and storage of sludges as well as materials with high solids content.

For the optimum results, SCHWING relies on the in-house production of all major components such as piston pumps, electric control systems, hydraulic power packs, and double screw feeders and also provides for silo technology, continuous dosing and mixing devices, pipelines and accessories.

For the optimum adaptation of the pump system to the type of sludge to be pumped, two different types of valve are available: the ROCK valve system (transfer tube system) and the poppet valve system (suction and pressure valves).  The valve system used largely depends on the characteristics of the sludge. Both pump types have been developed and manufactured by SCHWING and display impressively high performance, efficiency and reliability.

Due to its flexibility in pump design amongst some of our recent well-known references are, for example –  pumping of dewatered and dried sludge in wastewater treatment plants, fly ash handling in power plants, mine backfilling, and offshore drill cuttings.

Advantages
• Transportation by pipe is environment – friendly, no dust – no dirt, no odour and no noise.
• Reliable and cost effective due to a generous dimensions and a low hydraulic pressure. A robust design allows easy repair and maintenance.
• Smooth switching and no backflow from one pumping cylinder to the other thanks to the poppet valve design. This is especially important in case of compressible sludge’s or high pressure heads.
• High fatigue strength and precise switching of the transfer tube is typical for the moment-free “Rock valve”.
• Problem-free continuous operations even with high pumping pressures and large pumping distances. Running time of more than 50,000 hours of continuous operation is common. Their high availability makes it a reliable system for the operator.

Main characteristics
• High performance design
• Reliable and safe
• Low owning and operating costs
• Low maintenance costs.

Field of applications
SCHWING Sludge Pump System is basically designed for the transport and storage of high viscous sludges and material with high solids content. Its application areas include waste recycling, construction industry, mining, refineries, power plants, chemicals industry, forge industry, water sludge removal, paper industry, cleaning, residues and sugar industry.
