The mining challenge
From tailings recirculation to reagent dosing, pumps see abrasives, chemicals, and entrained air. The equipment must self-prime, tolerate solids, and maintain flow accuracy to protect process yield.
Kendall solutions for the pit and plant
Peristaltic (Hose) Pumps — built for slurries. Kendall peristaltic pumps thrive on difficult media: abrasive slurries, fluids with long fibers, and even materials with poor flowability. With roller technology that eliminates the need for internal lubricating oil, they cut maintenance, avoid environmental risks from oil, and keep uptime high. Hose options (NR, EPDM, NBR, CSM, silicone) and rugged gear reducers match duty demands. PERISTALTIC-PUMP
Double-Hose High-Flow Models. When you need big throughput for thick slurry transfer, Kendall double-hose variants deliver high continuous and intermittent flow ranges with the same sealed, dry-cavity advantages. PERISTALTIC-PUMP
MW/ML Mechanical Diaphragm Metering Pumps — reagent accuracy. For pH control, flocculants, and collectors, Kendall’s metering pumps provide repeatable L/h setpoints with corrosion-resistant PVC, PVDF, or 316L heads and double-ball ceramic check valves for long service in harsh chemistries.

Why it works in mining
- Handles abrasives and solids without valves clogging or seals wearing out—fluid only touches the hose or diaphragm. PERISTALTIC-PUMP
- Self-priming and run-dry tolerance help through air-entrained sections and variable suction conditions. PERISTALTIC-PUMP
- Chemical compatibility via multiple wet-end materials.
