Construction & Mining.

Construction and mining sites place demanding requirements on pumping equipment, from excavations, shafts and declines requiring continuous dewatering to sumps, wash plants and tailings areas containing abrasive sediment and slurry.

For portable site drainage, KTV and KTVE provide robust and versatile dewatering, while KTZ and KTZE extend capability into heavier-duty and higher-head applications. Larger and deeper dewatering duties are supported by KRS, with LH providing dedicated high-head pumping and GSZ covering high-head, high-volume water removal.

Where water contains higher concentrations of sand, silt, sediment and settled solids, dedicated slurry ranges including HSD, KTV Slurry, KTD, NKZ, GPN and GSD provide solutions across portable through to high-capacity heavy-duty slurry duties. GSD is specifically designed for continuous high-head, high-volume slurry pumping under severe construction and mining conditions.

Mining environments can also present specialist pumping requirements. Corrosive and acidic mine water requires appropriately configured corrosion-resistant pumps such as SFQ and, where applicable, LH-14/LH-W-14. Elevated liquid temperatures require dedicated high-temperature configurations selected according to the operating temperature and application.

Pump selection should consider required flow and discharge head, solids concentration and particle size, abrasion, water chemistry, liquid temperature, installation depth and operating conditions.
