The SEEPEX Mine Dewatering Unit is engineered for efficient spearation of oversized solids and conveying of mine water. The unit consists of a skid baseplate, tank, pipework, and a pump with a drive and controls. The compact design enables easy transport and the option to retrofit into existing dewatering units.
EASY TO MAINTAIN Sliding casing, easy detachable tie rods and movable ladder for easy access to pump and settling tank
AUTOMATED Level control enables automatic operation and adjusts speed based on fluid level in hopper
HIGH PRESSURE CAPABILITY Equal wall stators allow for higher pressures without increasing the size of the pump
LEIGHTWEIGHT Compact Design allows easy transport and placement of complete skid where needed
TIME-SAVING Suction and discharge pipework can remain in place when changing rotor and/or stator
CUSTOMIZABLE Customizable design for pump and settling tank according to various flows and pressures
Technologies, Accessories and Options

Accessories
Options
Pump valve manifold
Two outlets for sludge or solids removal.
Skid baseplate
Has a compact, bi-directional design and lifting lugs for simple transport.
Settle tank
Configured to control solids and handle overflow. Standard capacity of 3,300 liters (727 gal.).
Rotor and stator
Optimized compression between the rotor and stator using wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials. A wide range of alloys, coatings and elastomers are available for each.
Conventional geometry
With short pitches and a compact design, the conventional geometry produces high pressures.
Equal Wall Stator
The stator with uniform wall thickness is used in situations with very high pressures or temperatures.
Ladder
A lightweight, maneuverable work platform.
Galvanized steel frame
A protective coating on the skid and pipework to prevent rust.
Drive
According to the local mining specifications.
Level control
Enables automatic operation.
Overpressure Protection
The pressure gauge switches off the pump as soon as a pre-set pressure is exceeded or not reached and protects the pump from increased wear and tear or piping damage.
Dry-running protection device (TSE)
Protects against damage to the stator through dry-running. Optionally available.
Standard Gland Packing
Universal seal for hopper and standard pumps for sealing the plug-in shaft and suction casing or feed hopper. Also available with grease or lantern ring to shut off the media flow. Can also be supplied with upstream labyrinth seal and additional flush connection or lubricating device.
Single-acting mechanical seal
Universal standard mechanical seal for dosing, food applications and semi-submersible pumps for sealing the plug-in shaft in the suction casing or the hopper.
